        Reading in one go is like swallowing a kilo of meat. One needs to savour the gravy and bite into the finer shreds of it. Leh is simply magnanimous.
        10 Commandments:
        1)Thank thy God for being alive.
        2)Thou shalt respect one's own life and the live's of other road users.
        3)Thou shalt respect one's own bike.
        4)Love thy bike as thy self.
        5)Always wear safety gear.
        6)Alcohol is a strict NO!
        7)Thou may lust after thy neighbour's bike specially if its of the R1 kind!
        8)Thou shalt ride with 'ultra-most' care and caution when on Indian roads.
        9)Thou shalt never leave the engine running at long traffic halts.
        10)Thou shalt follow all of the above.

                        Nice Blog man..

                        Hey Rachit,

                        Very nicely written blog, it really takes courage to write such a long blog and pics are just ultimate. I am planning to do this ride the next year with RE (Himalayan Odyssey 2011). Booked an Electra this year.

                        I was expecting the blog would continue even after day 10 since the path you had mentioned in the beginning was through a different route on the return journey and so was eager to read more adventure. If at all it is there, pls. post the link.

                        Himalayan odyssey is planned in the same period during which you had been to LEH. I think that is the best period to visit LEH. How much does the altitude affect the bike running and mileage?

                        Congratulations for completing this at least once in a lifetime journey.

                        Regards,
                        Rahul K

                          Thanks Rahul, for the wonderful appreciation.. Yes I will be completing in a short while.. Already upto it..!! Yes, that was the best time to be in the mountains...
                          Altitude affects in a great rate on the bike's health, starts having hiccups & hence the mileage too is affected. Since you have a bullet.. You will surely have to carry enough fuel..
