Speechless! Not only because of how much you have already ridden but thinking how much more you're gonna ride in unexplored areas. All the best!

Kudos Praveen. This is true adventure. Just ride into the sunset and enjoy yourself.

Please click lots of pics (a pic is worth a thousand words!) as not many have done this route here and we want to see it thru your experience.

Ride safe & enjoy yourself thoroughly.


BTW- Nice custom panniers
