Re: Chanshal Pass - A beautiful hell

Dude. When did you go to Chanshal Pass?? I was there too on the 4th of October.. got a chance to meet Thyagarajan, [MENTION=47733]Hoodibaba[/MENTION] sir and Bipin.. but not you..

Re: Chanshal Pass - A beautiful hell

Bhai... What should i tell u.

I was in chandigarh on 1st evening. But came back on 3rd because of stomach ache.

I was in delhi at 4 pm on the 4th. And i was watching yeh jawani hai diwani.

Right then i decided, screw the distance and health, i have to go.

So i again left delhi on 5th morning, 4:30 am.
Reached rohru at 4:45 pm. [MENTION=47733]Hoodibaba[/MENTION] was waiting for me there, and after 15 min rest, we began ascent.

Due to fog as reported from the top by bipin and thyagraj, dk sir and i called it a day at larot, 15 kms from chanshal.

And while preparing our bikes for the ascent we saw three bikes going down. Dk sir said it was you.

One of the riders looked back but before i gave thumbs up, he continued looking forward, which was the right thing to do!!!!

Re: Chanshal Pass - A beautiful hell

Oh, so finally you made it to Chansal Pass, I am loving it

Re: Chanshal Pass - A beautiful hell


Seems like you had a nice time.. I believe I saw Bipin and Thyagaraj up in Chanshal on the 4th Night.. We pitched our tents and at around 9 PM we heard the thumping sound of RE and i noticed it was them.. Too dark, freezing and foggy made me wonder why they took such a risk.. I immediately ran to my bike, turned on the headlights and honked.. I felt they didn't hear the sound or see the light from the bike so I went back into the tent and phew almost froze to death

by the way.. Which bike was the guy riding? I am sure it is the RTR he is @manojmsoni

Re: Chanshal Pass - A beautiful hell

Day 0,
Date: 1/10/2014
Time: 11 a.m.

I was up since 8 a.m., cleaning and polishing my bike. I wanted it to shine before i left for the trip.

The trip was planned from the 2nd but i had other plans. I planned to avoid the muzzafarnagar route and so i took a day off from office (they knew i would take off a day earlier). Now my plan was to go to chandigarh, spend time with my mamaji and cousin and leave for ambala on 2nd morning and take ambala-paonta sahib route to meet hoodibaba, thyagraj sir and bipin sir.

So by noon on 1st, my stuff was loaded on my bike.

And i left for chandigarh. I must confess, i overloaded the stuff so the seating posture was literally pain in balls. Tried very hard to adjust but didnt work.
This meant frequent breaks. And one of the breaks i took took a toll on my health.

When i was at mubarka chowk, Delhi, i stopped to check my bungee chords as i would be hitting highway in a minute so i thought it would be good to check the tension in chords.

All fine, and i took a left hairpin turn to hit the GT road. The ride was uneventfull till my favorite dhaba, mayur bhaba which comes just before savoy greens, karnal. Only thing i would mention here is that people were looking me in shock... A guy riding bike in a jacket in such heat. What they dont know, that jacket separates men from boys.

Couple of car drivers smiled at me and one duster guy gave a thumbs up to me. A group of ultra-beautiful girls in a white fortuner looked and smiled while at sonepat red light. This time i gave them a thumbs up and zoomed off at green light. They replied by throwing beam at me twice as they knew they wont be able to catch up with me.

I wish i could have their numbers!

Re: Chanshal Pass - A beautiful hell

Ahhh.. This reminds me of my ride back from Chanshal


You do know that the fortuner can eat our bikes put together, right?

Hi Sukhi

By opting for Simla route, you missed a lot like the Tiger Water Fall of Chakrata and many more spots
