Checking comments by others on his travel blog, it seems apparent that Gordon May has successfully reached the home of Royal Enfield in Chennai, India. Gordon's 8,000 mile trek from Manchester, UK on a 1953 Enfield Bullet began Aug. 22. He seems to have reached Chennai Oct. 9.
Gordon's travel blog is running about 10 days behind his actual progress. It's an exciting story of friendly people along the way, highway robbers, crashes and encounters with police. You can follow his progress on my interactive map here.
