It was in her teenage, when Lindsay found her love for biking. Being open about her experience, she admitted that the first time through Rainbow Valley, she fell down into the river.

 

When mentioned about the dislocation of hip in Ladakh, India in 2012 she said, “That seems to get mentioned a lot, what an absolute nightmare.”

 

Other scariest moment faced by Lindsay was the monkey attack. She was in Cambodia when this happened. Recollecting the moment, she said "I'd struck monkeys all the time in India, but [my friend] said no, as a female you should always have a male with you," she said.repliche orologi italia

 

"Well, the men left and bugger me, there were all sizes jumping on us." But she believes that such challenges are part of the riding experience and this is one of the reasons why she chooses to travel in those outlying Asian countries.
