    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

      Nice teazer bro. Oh yes even i never go with my younger brother. You wont believe his first bike was a Apache 160, he had it for one year before it got stolen (since he left it unlocked in a hospital parking lot). In this one year he had 1 fracture, and 13 times he was in bandage, and use to brag about it in front of his friends about the accidents. So yeah younger siblings. Alright bro Keep posting and Ride safe.

                Description of the hotel and the way to it:Day 2:

                Day 2 plan was to see Jalori Pass and then return to Shimla. We started from Shimla around 8: 30 am, glad we did. TYS is a lazy bum and the time he used to take to wake up and get ready in one season.
                We had out tea:

                The roads are not that good till Kufri and but they are awesome till Theog and nearby area. Some great scenic beauty on the way:

                TYS waiting as I was busy taking photos:


                We reached Narkanda and decided to take a small break:

                The Hatoo Peak:
                st gear and sometimes 2nd gear. There was a time when I the height was so vertical that bike almost hauled backward. I turned the bike off quickly and god TYS jumped from the bike and hold it from the back. The Ride was saved and we continued to ride. As soon as we reached the peak it was worthed. Some pics and a video:

                We did not stay much on the peak as we had to go a long way. We manage to ride down from the peak but it was a legendary experience. After travelling few more Kilometers something happened and that every rider is a bit afraid of, and something that never happened on any of my past trips.

                      Hi Sirish, I hpoe you like it now with better presentation of pics. Roads were great till shimla (60-70km/hr manageable . from shimla till Kufri roads are a bit in a bad shape(30-40km/hr manageable) but only for few kms then till theog and few kms(60km/hr manageable) they were fine. I only went till Narkanda.

                              I got back from a 500kms trip on sunday. There were six of us , 2 CBR and 4 R15. Considering that write and your very beutifully written travalogue, I am very tempted to ride my CBR all the way to delhi from here. Fir tujhe station nahi aana padega mujhe pick karne.
