Description
My brother is a biker and he once heard a wonderful line describing the thrill of biking (paraphrased) "Driving through the mountains in a car is like watching a movie, but riding through the mountains on a bike is like BEING IN the movie!"
This artwork is modified from a photograph taken of a Royal Enfield wall poster August 4/15 in Cuenca, Ecuador, South America nestled in the Andes Mountains.
Royal Enfield was the name under which the Enfield Cycle Company made motorcycles, bicycles, lawnmowers and stationary engines. The legacy of weapons manufacture is reflected in the logo, a cannon, and their motto "Made like a gun, goes like a bullet". Use of the brand name Royal Enfield was licensed by The Crown in 1890. The original Redditch, Worcestershire based company was sold to Norton-Villiers-Triumph (NVT) in 1968.
In 1956 Enfield of India started assembling Bullet motorcycles under licence from UK components, and by 1962 were manufacturing complete bikes. Enfield of India bought the rights to use the Royal Enfield name in 1995. Royal Enfield production, based in Tiruvottiyur, Chennai, continues and Royal Enfield is now the oldest motorcycle brand in the world still in production with the Bullet model enjoying the longest motorcycle production run of all time.
