we stayed at pang.. u get tents there for 30 bucks per person.. decent tents tough!
in leh we stayed near sanchi stupa.. goba guest house.. 250 bucks for a room.. decent one but u get only veg food there! many good hotels are there nearby!A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.
Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

they have all blankets and stuff there.. but sleeping bags will help since its just a tent.. to be on the safer side get one.. it can get very cold! you can also use it as a back rest cushion while riding
do you guys have an itinerary posted?A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

Oh I thiought we have to mention the place name Marsmikla. Thanks Sumith.Originally posted by sumit.pannalall View PostHey Ashwin, I too forgot that pass name. I think the place was Parma that you need to mention in the permits for that route.
For Marsmikla I think the name of the village was Pobhrang

Mention the village name too. Because the guys emphasize on the via route too.Originally posted by Rockkyyy View PostThanks Buddy.

Which is what happened to us when we were not allowed to pass through chushul for Hanle because we didn't mention the via route places properly. And there is no way they'll let you pass if it isn't not mentioned in the permits.

For permits, you can walk in directly to the DC's office which opens up at 10 am and they will assist you with all the relavent information. Closed on sunday's and public holidays ...Originally posted by Rockkyyy View PostCouple of questions:

5) Point to point route from SRINAGAR to Delhi
Chusul, you may go from a place 30 kms before pangong called tangste. or via pangong - spangmik - chusul.
The road to Phobrang is a bifurcation towards the left of the lake. From phobrang, is a steep ascent to marsimik la.
Hunder to leh you may return via Shakti village - wari la - karu - leh.
Longer and bad roads ..
As mentioned above, Drass would be a more scenic option, but kargil would be more viable (more availability of accomo).
