Hey!,
Well its been a while since I've posted here as professional and personal responsibilities kept me occupied big time. I recently traded off my RE 2011 C5 for a Pulsar 200 NS due to misc. reasons and now I'm planning the Ladakh ride starting 1st June this year. I have made a "blue print" of the itinerary and need advise from all the experienced and expats over the same. For the short bit, I would have max 14 days on disposal (+1 buffer day) from Delhi-Leh-Delhi trip. The plan is as follows:
Day 1: Delhi-Manali/Vashisht
Day 2: Manali and around. Servicing the bike and preparing for the big advnture
Day 3: Manali-Jispa
Day 4: Jispa-Leh
Day 5: Leh and around, bike check up and permits
Day 6: Leh-Turtuk (night stay at Turtuk)
Day 7: Turtuk-Pangong-Spangmik (via Nubra-Khalsar-Agham-WariLa-Shakti-Changla-Taqngtse); night stay at Spangmik
Day 8: Spangmik-Chushul-Mahe-Tso Moriri (Night stay at Tso Moriri)
Day 9: Tso Moriri-Tso Kisgar-Sumdo-Tso Kar-Debring-Upshi-Leh
Day 10: Rest day at Leh
Day 11: Leh-Hanu-Dah-Kargil
Day 12: Kargil-Srinagar
Day 13: Srinagar and around
Day 14: Srinagar-Jammu
Day 15: Jammu-Delhi
I hope the plan is not over ambitious either for the rider or the bike. If yes, suggestions, comments, rebukes and abuses are more than welcome
Info on the accommodation part is needed in the far off areas of Turtuk, Tso Moriri and Spangmik.
Also, if someone can shed some light over the road condition and availability of fuel in the above areas.
Permits: If someone can jot down as to what all places need to be mentioned while getting the permits, it would be a great help.
Day 3&4 are a bit of a concern for me as the the road might get blocked. Will I be better off to split Manali-Leh into 3 days?
Waiting for comments and suggestions!
