India's Cup
India's Cup is a motor rally made famous for being the first organized adventure tour to use the iconic Hindustan Ambassador as its flagship vehicle in 2008. According to the lead organizer, Princely J., the adventure tourism rally has been conducted five times a year since 2008 along predetermined routes. On each occasion, the participants are given the route, the destinations, and some advice and recommendations, but remain free to travel at their own pace. Background.
