                    Day 4: Journey continues to Chanshal Pass

                    So as I moved ahead the terrain got tougher. The gradient was increasing, now my Impulse came down to 2nd and 3rd Gear, my body was working overtime. The only goal was to reach the top at Chanshal Pass.

                    The temperature started decreasing and the air thinner, my motorcycle was grasping for air and I started feeling the heaviness in breathing. I halted in between couple of times to cool myself down and also to let my motorcycle rest before venturing further. The road was getting nastier as the climb was getting tougher. This meant the exertion factor increasing on my motorcycle, and I had to work more than 100% to maneuver the motorcycle.

                    The last 8 kms of the ride was very treacherous. Bad roads, increased gradient, meant the air got thinner hence; the motorcycle started having problem in climbing up. Now I was mostly in 1st Gear, in that also the motorcycle was losing power as soon as I used to shift to 2nd

                      Same Day after 1:30pm:
                      Now the route starts back from Himachal to Uttaranchal. This route was amazing and scenic. After 2 days I was getting proper tarmac. Once I reached Rohru, I de tuned my motorcycle from Lean to Rich to be able to adapt the altitude change. I was enjoying the ride and not much stop and no photography enroute as well. The 30kms stretch around Lokhandi Pass there was a Cloud Burst a day before, so encountered two Landslides and this 30kms is unpaved.

                      After crossing this stretch stopped for quick tea, and then again dashed off for Chakrata at around 7:30pm I was in town of Chakrata. I took a hotel room unpacked my motorcycle and then had a good bath. Went to the market area and looked for the famous dhaba of Sardar Ji. Ordered mutton and roti, and yes it was yummy as always. After that came back and slept.

                          Thanks, did you finalize the route?

                          Day 5: Chakrata – Dakpatthar – Behat – Chhutmalpur – Roorkee – Muzaffarnagar – Merrut – Indirapuram, Ghaziabad = 312kms

                          Left Chakrata at 6:30am and reached home at 2pm.

                          Got up at 5:30 am, got all ready and loaded up my motorcycle. Left Chakrata at 6:30 am for back home. Stopped around 7:30 for breakfast and then pulled up in plains. I could feel the heat and was already missing the mountains.

                          Took a last glance of the mountains and thanked them for pampering me last 4 days. Promising to come back again to explore more beautiful places and admire more than before.

                          Reached home at 2 pm

                          Thank you all for reading through the travelogue, I appreciate your patience and time.

                                Once I have donned my black helmet, I become anonymous. My face ceases to identify me. My black visor shields others from the rigours of my passing glance while shielding me from their attempts to peer into my soul. I am an anonymous rider shrouded in black. I am no longer a specific self. I am a passing Traveller.
