      With every post of yours you guys are giving heart attack to us.

      Can't help it as getting permission from parents is next to impossible so its much easier for me to plan for a Spiti ride sitting 1000miles away than 250miles away.

        Anshul: Yes I was waiting for your Black n White pics man, they are amazing

        Kudos and Hats Off to OF Sir, Imran Bhai and Anshul for this trip. I am still thinking what that Fox must be thinking when we would have seen all 3 of you

            When i came back, called up OF sir and Imran and the plan to ride to Spiti valley took shape.

              With our Black & White specialist (Anshul) awaiting his films as they are processed and prints made, I believe we can build up for a while on digital B&W pics.



              The beautiful Pin Valley


              Ki Village and Monastery


              Dream ride!!


              A sight to behold. The beauty of Himalayas.


              Circuit House - Kaza. Note the ice on the lamp-post lattice-work.


              Frozen..again!!

              Kartik: Thanks and yes lots more in pics and words coming up.

              Haroon: The envy is understandable . The 'un-sung hero' is a Panasonic FZ35 Lumix P&S with a Leica lens. 12MP, 18x Optical zoom. Good, effective and handy I must say.

              Dhairya: Thanks.

              Kurt: Looking forward to hearing of your ride now.

              Petrolhead22: That the pics could perk you up from fatigue is a wonderful compliment. Thanks.

              BI: Thanks a lot.

              Mav1234: Some more coming up....soon

              Kirosh: Look what you missed during your stint in Noida . Make amends. You deserve it.

              Akhil: Not much compared to your ascent of Marsemik in the middle of winter. But yes, the bright sun did give us a great photo-op. lets ride in together next March. And yes...it'll be 'purely' Spiti.

              thechamp: Don't envy. eventually, you'll also be riding to such places....just stick around to sane motorcycling.

              Zyan: Thanks. The pleasure of sharing is mutual.

              Torque ankur: Yes....the pics do say it all. And better than words I must admit.

              MG: I understand. And looking forward to your ride into 'white n frozen'.

              Shivanshu: Thanks a ton for the appreciation. And yes..would love to hear the RX scream at 14,000 ft.

              Mik
              : The 'amazing' place awaits you all. Just go!!!
              I don't let my motorcycles interfere with my motorcycling...

                  @OFsir, Anshul: Got a tough question for you both, Spiti or Leh?

                  Am planning Leh in June, but after seeing the pics, Am in two minds

                            Amazing, incredible and all the superlatives fall way short of the sights presented here. It must have been spellbinding up there. As Rossiter says, this is one of the best things that happened in recent times in the travel section! Kudos for the guts and the initiative for all three of you. I can see frozen waterfalls during the day. Which means daytime temperatures must have been plummetting to -10 or lower! Uff! That is biting cold, enough to give chill blains. How well have the skin on the knuckles taken it?
                            The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

                              @B2L - Brilliant start to what appears a well crafted log. Waiting for it...

                              @Anshul - I'm a member of your B&W pics' fan club. Both the pics are absolute beauty but only two pics..... eagerly waiting for many more. Excellent Stuff!!

                              @OF Sir - as usual pics are very nice & I just have to control my eyes from popping out. But, I miss log in your style. If you can please do the needful....
