    Re: Beyond Mountains - LEH , Once in a Life Time Journey

    Taking on the mightiest mountains in the world al alone .. real guts brother... . Beautiful photography and write up, you almost took us all along with you living every moment.. I should really appreciate your spirit on night riding.

    Got lil worried about your health condition, but, I am sure your passion kept you alive through

    I have been missing the bikers paradise since two years and have decided that I will make it up in the coming year.. I guess you have mentioned all the required details for the ride in the log, if there is anything else that would be useful, please share it..

    Ride Long - Ride Safe ! Cheers (Y)

      Just wish that someday i will also be able to complete this ride.. The Famous Leh - Ladakh Ride.

      If possible do give a breakup of the total expenses occurred related to ride in terms of petrol, stay etc. which will help us in planing in future rides.

      And yes all the pics are really awesome.. Superlyk for them.
      Thanks guys,

      R15 handled exceptionally well, although its not as good as bullets on bad/no-roads , but due to its very light body its easy to handle any place, no problem with fairing either.
      the FI of the bike is real advantage, i could see the engine warning light for 5-10sec whenever the bike had less O2 in air, but it immediately adjust itself.

      Expense:
      Flight tickets: 11k
      BIke transport: 9k
      Petrol : 5k
      others:10k

      we stayed in expensive stays all the route, which is not required , for exmpl: we paid 3.5k for one tent , where as you can get one night sleep in tent as low as 150/-

            Even I had seen the same truck.. We had spent so much time wondering how exactly that might have occurred.. And there were some really innovative theories.. :P

            Just read the full thing.. Awesome travelogue..
