I started at 4 am towards Delhi along with my Pulsar150 classic, a santro and an Enticer wich was my friends. It was a nice and cool drive in the dark until Delhi. From delhi we went through modi nagar, Muzafar Nagar,, Merut, Roorke and Haridwar untill we finaly reached rishikesh at 7 pm. Its only a 400 km drive but we were going slow and steady. We stayed at raj palace a very luxurious hotel and I spent around 10 days in rishikesh going to waterfalls, ganga, lakes and had lots of fun. We mostly ate in Chotiwala restaurant and the green italian restaurant. Another of my friends joined me in rishikesh with his 8 year old rx 100. we spent a few days here and there and went rafting. It was real fun. Then me and my rx friend went to yamunotri for 3 days. Our bikes were ripping the roads and we were having lots of fun uphill. We stayed a night in janki chatti and the next day trekked 5 kms upto yamunotri. We even went to the glaciers and stayed there and hour and came back down the same day and rested the night and next morning rode back to rishikesh. It is a 220 km ride to yamunotri. We stayed another 4 days in rishikesh and then traveled back starting at 5 am and reaching mathura at 3.30pm. I lost my RX friend in the delhi trafic and I travelled back alone. I met him later on and he had gone through a panchar and an engine jam towards the end of his trip and had to get his bike transported home by a tempo. Guess his bike overheated and something jammed in his piston. Overall it was a very enjoyable trip and few close calls while coming down from yamunotri road but lukily all was fine. My pulsar 150 classic returned an overall avg of around 60km per lt . that is good for mountain usage. I had a heavy pillon behind me too. Im amazed at the avg.
oh yeh and the turns in the mountains are the bestttt! if you havent taken them your not a real bikerrrr! you can realy lean the bike(but my pulsar footpegs stop me from goin furthur.)
