I was thinking about your plan. For almost half a day today. You guys are spending like 5 days before you hit the Himalayan range. 6 days in Hot sun and you are already tiered. Why don't you guys do the Leh first and visit the other places in return journey? Riding in normal highways is much easier than riding on mountain passes and here you can skip something if you feel tiered... But when at Leh you cannot skip something... you have to ride back all the way. Yes, you have reserve days but still...

Pls check http://www.leh.nic.in/

The Manali - Leh route is Closed now.

Guys, I am planning to do this trip but the problem is funds as I am a student so it would be a little difficult for me to manage the expenses. I was wondering that if I could find some sponsors, then it would be helpful for me. Will castrol and XBhp sponsor me for this ride? Please let me know as to how can I approach companies for sponsorship.
Thanks in advance.

Exclamation Cheers!!!

Manali-Leh : open
May 21, 2009
News less than an hour ago quotes BRO engineer SK Doon :

“The crucial 475 km Manali-Leh highway reopened for the traffic this (Thursday) morning. All types of vehicles can now ply on the highway”

The official road marker , leh.nic.in , still shows the road as closed.

high road to..

guys, is there any way to ensure we get accommodation at Pang / Sarchu, Pangong Tso, Diskit/Hunder areas?

I believe they have very limited accommodation available and these places are like you cannot go anywhere else from there in dark.

One more thing, your dates are matching the RE Himalayan Odessey plan. I am sure you don't want to go along with that.
