The Yamaha FZ motorcycle team, which left Nepal for the north Mt. Qomolangma Basecamp in Tibet of China a week ago, returned on Sunday after competing their 1,100 km ride.

They had begun their tour on July 18 and reached the Mt. Qomolangma (also known as Mt. Everest) Basecamp in China on July 24, local newspaper The Kathmandu Post reported on Monday.

The team, consisting of three public figures of Nepal -- taekwondo ace Deepak Bista, singer Nima Rumba and television personality Suraj Singh Thakuri -- along with seven others, arrived in capital Kathmandu on Sunday afternoon.

Singer Nimba Rumba, who had no prior experience of riding a motorcycle, could not believe what he had just gone through. "I am extremely delighted with what I have achieved," said
