Write up Day one:
24 June I was in office discussing some work related issues, all of sudden some one called my name I looked towards the source of sound, it was my mate Anuj along with other guys standing beside window(just to check out chicks out side) I thought they had seen a hottie n that’s why called me up to have a look, I started running and sounding like a bike durrrr durrrr durrrr n rammed in them and apologized with n excuse that my bike don’t have breaks, on a serious note I looked out and asked them where the chick, Anuj was serious and came out with much serious words and said “bike pe ghumne chale kahin” I looked at him he was really serious and I as usually say “haan bool kahaan chalna hai” one of my mate said u tell whats good n I said Manesar McD, they both embarrassingly said fool not for an hour lets make it bike. With it a round of talks started and we googled every thing that came to our mind and final result was valley of flowers by Amit Kashyap my colleague. Deal was done now it was about the riders, we had words with many but every one had a no from there mouth, we were three ready to ride out, and few curious guys who want to joined us were also showed up, it took us 14 days to set it all we three were engaged with each and every friend who will show some guts for this ride in other words biker kind of people. People backing off and showing us there interest and this mess ended up in a team of six:
1)budding_biker P150-i
2)Amit Kashyap P200-i
3)Hemant Sharma Opel Corsa(the Baby)
4)Moto_Ashu Opel Corsa
5)Bharat Bhushan Opel Corsa
6)Karan (Cool Dude) pillion P200-i
Day for ride was Friday 2pm but was changed due to official reasons to Thursday 2pm. With destination in hand and schedule in mind we set off exactly at 2pm from Gurgoan. As per plan we have to reach Rhishikesh by night and we got time on back then will try to Srinagar. We were welcomed in Delhi by heavy traffic of Delhi, which followed us till Gaziabad, on our way to Meerut P200 raised some unhappy clutch issue we stopped and fixed it, with the tool kid I had. Amit thanks’d me n he n his bike both were happy. We took off again and this time decided to avoid Meerut traffic decided to take the Khatuli road from Muradnagar. Toad was narrow but it was fun riding me, Amit and Karan were boosted up as it was our first hill riding session and it was enough to keep us running with enjoying the beauty spread all around us on our way to Khatouli with the canal running along us cooling up the air hitting us making it more pleasing for us and our machines. Every one was happy and boosted up (bikes and the Baby obviously) the car was ahead of us as it has got more speed then us and also due to the protocol set by me and Amit, we took our first stop for freshening p a bit clicked some pics and had some bananas and water people around us were looking at us like we r not humans (almost every one was staring at us even the dogs), phew!!! We touched the buttons and the little mills r again ready to hit the road a few 100 meters away we stopped again to drain some access water from our body. We road till “Chital”. Parked the dirty looking machines, people there were also staring at us and I was like what the heck is this, Amit said never mind they had humans like us before, ignoring them we went to get some energy, a few moments later the Baby appeared and the other three members of the team joined us in the fun. After munching lots of stuff we started it again and this time the road was wider n sweeter heaven to ride on highway, we passed miles in minutes, now the Baby was hungry so we stopped to fill her tummy but the mate did it a bit over and the fuel was spilling out. Again a few guys standing beside us in a car were looking at us like mad nuts this time we did the same ignore yaar. We moved again with on roll photo session, bikes this time took the lead as we were challenged by corolla nut we ignored him, stopped to fill up the tanks and few calls back home, we started again towards our first night stay point. we were in Rhishikesh exactly on time (unbelievable). We took some cash, recharged our communications devices in the mean time joined by the car walas (moto_ashu and company). Moved up to look out for hotels as the gate for Srinagar was closed as from 8 to 5 am the area is no driving zone land slides are very frequent in this area. We went to a hotel parked our machines, freshened up Bharat and Moto Ashu want to have some non-veg they collected data from locals for the best non-veg place around we all were hungry so headed to the place “14 beegha” but it was like its 14 miles away, so we ended up in “Brunchs” we were the last one to place the order, I was a but numb, headaches due to Friday evening rain bath and late night sleep were the reason, after chit chat over dinner we decided to got back to the rooms and have a nice sleep but a few of them want to go “Laxman Jhula” moving back we queried about the road ahead as its still was not sure that we are going to valley of flowers, a few of us don’t want to take risk and they suggested other destinations, but I was damn stiff. We took the car overloaded it allowed the bikes to rest to Laxman jhula on our way we were surprised by down hill cyclist and bikers with no head lights they were like Yamraj. A few moments on The jhula we headed back, we took the wrong road and hell we were lost with no one around we were driving with no clue and each one of us was having different idea about the correctness of our path, add to it the scary environment, cats crossing our way, the white saari wali ghost and much more to make this happening, MotoAshu finally convinced Hemant to turn back we were around three km’s away from the correct turn thanks to Moto_Ashu we all were back to our rooms cracking jokes over the incident. Slept with destination Govindghat in mind.
