First of all I would like thank the XBHP community. You people have been a great source of inspiration. Just 2 years ago I did not know how to ride a motorcycle 
, let alone the idea of touring the Himalayas on a two wheeler. I have spent hours reading through all kinds of trip logs here in XBHP, which at times becomes a daily routine. It helped me prepare, learn several aspects of riding and discover a totally different world of mine which I feel myself attached to and can say that I am proud of it. Ok, enough chit chat, Lets go ahead with the trip log!
It started as two day trip to Mukteshwar; however, after finding small patches of ice along the road just before Mukteshwar we could not resist the idea of riding over black ice
and walking over knee deep snow under the shadow of the mighty Himalayas, and decided to extend the ride to a 5 day trip to Munsiyari!
