              Day 6 Leh tourists

              Its been a year since we embarked on this adventurous ride. I thought it would be best for me to resume this travelogue and complete it

              Day 6 Leh Tourists

              The view from our hotel room at Leh. We woke up to this majestic view of the mountains on the four days we stayed at this hotel


              Leh

              Streets of Leh

              View of Leh city from Leh Palace

              Leh Palace

              Leh view and the snow capped mountains at the background



              Leh Bazar


              View of Leh city from Shanti Stupa


              Shanti Stupa






              Glance of more to come the next day!




              Happy faces Myself and Vignesh


              We obtained permits for KTop, Nubra valley , PangongTso and Tso Moriri . I also used this day to charge the battery of my bike as a precaution as it was showing low battery signs with headlights on. I didnt want to take chances with the battery on the 220 Fi! It could ruin my trip and the upcoming days would be remote places .

              We were all set for KhardungLa the next day! We are all excited about the famous "Highest Motorable road in the World"

                        Just flick the switch and twist my wrist
                        The beast comes alive, bringing me back to life
                        A tap to shift and flick of the wrist
                        The beast takes flight bringing me back to life
                        Kill the silence, tear apart the dark
                        The beast rips the road, hell yeah, i feel alive.

                            Wow. The pictures are really amazing, it really is a dream come true.
                            And I'm surprised that your bike made it, I mean 5 years old and wow! That's one hell of a maintenance.
                            Great Job bro!
