Indian motorcycles have a cult following in a most surprising place … a little town right at the bottom of New Zealand.

Invercargill is pretty much the last stop on the way to Antarctica.

For most of the year, it’s home to around 50,000 people (not counting hobbits). But every November, the population explodes for a weekend, as 20,000 motorcycles roar down the wide straight streets of this sleepy little town.

This is the Burt Munro bike rally.

It’s a joyful celebration of Indian motorcycles – and an annual tribute to a local motorcycling legend.
