Some more info regarding this trip.
I always look towards these details in every travelogue I read so just mentioning these
Time: 20th May 2016 to 23rd May 2016
Temperature: Day 20-25, Night 15-18
Duration: From Delhi I took off at 3:45 AM. Reached Barot at around 5:30 PM Although I reached Mandi at 12:30 PM most of the time was lost due to rains and bad roads at some parts.
On returning, I started at 9:30 AM visited Baijnath Temple, Bir and Billing and reached Delhi at around 1:00 AM
Overall weather was very comfortable and a big relief from Delhi.
Total expenditure: 8000 including Bike servicing, stay, food and fuel
Who should go: People looking for some quite time.
What I enjoyed: The hilly area and the twisties. While the corners were not always super smooth it was fun.
What I hated: Although I enjoyed Dukes sound on the highways and corners, I absolutely loathed it's mechanical puttering in the quite valley roads. Would have loved to ride a mojo or thunderbird there. But, like always, we can't have everything now can we

Thanks for reading and enjoy the pics.
