Climbing up to Bralachala my body felt some kind of uneasyness. May be I was not getting enough oxygen. I tried not to stop in many places and drank lot of water.Once I reached top some how felt a lot better.

Guess Who ?? Another thread is comming up.

that water makes it more adventurous.

Yeah thats why I said next time I visit only in may/june ... wanna see more snow

.One one two times we will like crossing these Nallas. But most of the time water goes inside the shoe and will get wet completely. Its so chilled water that your leg will start paining if the sox is not changed. Mine was water proof, but still the water could get in from the top since it was not a very hing angle shoe.

Amazing ride there Rockkyyy, you have overcome lot of difficulties and challenges, it's almost like watching a movie here, your logs and pics are in perfect sync, keep them flowing. Am sure you are a changed man after this ride, more than a ride, this must have been a turning point in your life. Helmets off to you and your co riders who did this ride.

Thank you Vaas. You are right, this trip has definitly changed me in lot many ways, personally too.

yes boss.. early months are better to dip yourself in the snow. I know about those cruel water nallas. They are so damn chilled. When we expect this crossings to be over, suddenly another nalla will be waiting for you ahead & then putting your feet to get chilled like an ice..!!

Oh F*** man, the pictures are mindblowing. The one in which you or rahul crossing that water body - awesome! Interesting to also see a foreigner taking pictures of your bikes. The water bodies actually make things more fun I would say.

Sad that the knee guards did not do its job. Have to ensure that its properly tightened to the bones to ensure that it does not slide off from its position.

There are dead cells, now getting cleaned up every dressing. Might take one or two weeks to cover up the flesh. Wound is quite deep. Working from home these days

Take care dude, wounds will heal but the memories you have got will last for a lifetime and beyond

Day9: Sarchu-LEH

Not to mention there are lot of Army trucks/jeeps on the way. We stopped and give them way when ever we encountered with them. Some of them even salute to us by doing so.Also the normal trucks which carry fuel those guys are also really good. You horn and then wait then will give you way. We just pass them saying thanks by waving our hands.Generally I found people to be so generous and helping through out the trip.

Then we passed Lachulung La and the we reached a place where mountains were shaped like castle. I could co-relate it to a big castle with a gate and place for Kings palace and then for soldiers. I made up a story in my mind while I was riding J. For some time I was in a Fantasy mood

.

Watch you head.

After that I saw some guys going with lot of horses approaching a bridge. I stopped behind them to take a picture. While crossing the bridge one of the horse just ran and crossed the river instead of taking the bridge. The horse must be just like me , like I took the 4x4 short cut from Nakeela

.

Then we signed the report and went ahead.

Pang from Top

I had read pang is a beautiful place for photography, but I was disappointed not seeing much. Then I wondered was that the castle shaped mountain they were referring to.Just 2km as we climbed up from Pang the vista just changed and there is this big mountain. I stopped and walked towards a hill to get the entire view. Man it literally took all my energy. But finally could take the entire happy , happy for that.

Then comes The Tanglang La. I feel this was one of the toughest pass we passed. Bad roads or no roads on the top, scary stretches, we got rain and hence very low visibility. Had to keep the visor open. Actually it was ice rain; it was coming like small bullets. And up on top of all these it was too cold. After descending we reached the Rumtse. And this is a beautiful village with lot of cultivation going all around. Full of pista green J
We went out had food and slept for the day.
