Undoubtedly The finest pictures of Ladakh i have ever seen. Kudos to you and your ride !
And Your log and pix are quite informative... thats impressive too! doing this kinda trip and updating the log in real time is not easy !

btw, my plan is to come to Tso morari from pangong through the route you have traveled, except that ride upto chusul, which i have planned through the bank of the pangong... But that's may be tough... You can tell better actually ...
And from Tso Morari, i dont want to ride back to the leh, instead i want to get on to the Lah - Manali highway at Debring(not sure about the spelling) near pang. Map says this route goes via Tso Kar... Any update on this route?

You cold as well ride on the banks of pangong to chushul. Many have done it. Just that i was alone and would not get any help if my bike got stuck of tipped over so i chose the tarmac. If you got company you can as well try that. There is a path from Tsomoriri to Tso Kar and will join pang. Though did not notice any fork for that.

Praveen - This is really hard core adventure stuff. Kudos to you and your high spirits. Besides, we all owe you big time for the very fact that you take the time out on most days after all the tiresome riding to keep us updated with your report & pics (uploading so many pics is no easy job!).

Your Discover India trip is no less than a round the world trip as it has everything from beaches to mountain passes to forests to deserts to....

Great going. As always our good wishes & prayers are with you brother.

Thanks for the words and wishes Haroon, things have worked out pretty well till now. Will have to see how it goes ahead.

Congratulations!

Spoke to Praveen half hour ago. He is looking at stopping for the nigth at Pang, if not Sarchu. He also wants to see Tso Kar lake (detour from More plains..)
He wont have any network till he crosses Rohtang (tomm evening or so)

**Bunny** · 07-30-2009, 10:49 PM

Update : Spoke to Praveen. Coz he started late yesterday from Leh, he stayed the night at Pang. Today he is at Keylong. Tomm will ride to Manali.

**sabret00the** · 07-31-2009, 12:49 AM

Yeah, it is! Congratulations. The route to Delhi from Manali is not so great too. Too many "roads under construction" till Chandigarh IIRC. Might be a bit too tiresome due to the truck and buses too. Watch out not to exceed 60kmph once ur inside Chandigarh. The cops are known to be very strict for traffic offences there. All the best and have a safe journey.

**goodforeverything** · 07-31-2009, 08:27 PM

this in one great travelogue praveen sir, an epic journey of huge proportion, may this journey never end !! GOOD LUCK
