Day 5 (Wednesday:
January 12, 2000)
The front window display,
a new model, the Machismo.
I had plenty of time to contemplate this display today as I waited
for paperwork and panniers. Then it was time to go and it took all
the nerve I had to enter the multi-tiered Indian traffic to leave
for Mamallapuram, only an hour or two away. The Enfield dealer here
in Madras (Chennai) is on a very busy street. The layers are: pedestrians,
bicycles, bicycle rickshaws, bicycle carts, oxen carts, wandering
sacred cows, scooters, motorcycles, wandering sacred cows, dogs,
cars, buses, small trucks, big trucks and more wandering cows. I
waited until a bus stopped and blocked traffic and then I was off!
