Yes I am pretty mad about a lot of things especially if someone tries to project lack of preparation as an event out of their control. As you would agree, riding in mountains is fun if you are really prepared for it and hell if you are not.


+1 to aman. This is why we got together and stuck together till the end. We finished all the planned locations in set time. One MAJOR reason was riding was more important than other things. We started around 6 am every morning so could finish the day's ride with ample sunlight remaining and then enjoy and Aman would be ready even before we thought of getting out of bed. May be because he slept with all his clothes and gear on.

Welcome back home to u to Aman..!!!
Am curious bout knowing different Leh Tales in different versions..

Hey Kurt.... thanks for that little lift in Hunder!

All these tales may sound dramatic and surely make up for an interesting read, but I wouldn't want to be a part of them. That was the reason I detached myself from the Mumbai gang, joined the Pune group, did some solo stuff, completed the tour, and was back with a day to spare. Nothing wrong in being efficient.

Now I feel they're again trying to be God by taking the Manali route... no wonder they'll get more viewership! But I chose between nature and sanity, and I'm back home safe and fit.

Great!

Is this for Motor and gang?

I also feel quite ok now..!!

I guess so..

The time we started off from Leh for Ktop..the weather was already bad..

Kindly convey the same to Satyen too then..!

Oops Thanks Shaan for all the support ..

Missed meeting you.. But, there's always next time ..

Great news about biru & shadowboy..!!

Am worried now for spidy & gang as they have headed towards Manali.. if the pass is closed, they might probably waste days again here living in tents & without network.. Away from civilization.. God bless them & get them back home safely..

We interupt this comeback ga ga messages for urgent news:

Beeruo:
Started return journey yesterday, crossed srinagar bypass nd stopd for lunch. Mild rain and heavy traffic from both side..
khatru combo.
Planning 2 stay at ramban, another 12 kms

and LOL - Looks like they DID head to Manali... I wonder where they are now!

Please don't head on Leh - Manali. It is closed beyond sarchu.

You'll find me somewhere on the road

Good to meet you at Ktop!

Looks like you are pretty mad about a few things, though I do agree to the fact that riding shoul not be taken casually, specially on the mountains!

Its Shaan

Abe ekdum thik hai vo..nakhre mat kar..

I spoke to Hydro abt it and was to buy it that evening..!! But, in the evening was stuck up with some of the clothes shopping..so couldn't find time for it.. luckily for me that the bike was standing for 2 whole days in Leh bcoz of which i could identify the rim-bend(coz the air had leaked in those 2 days) and get that rectified otherwise if i would have been riding and it would have been a big problem then..!

Kya baat!! Kya baat!! Such things too happened..!!

Thanks Ankit..

Kahan sleeping yaar..

It was nice meeting you too Prateek..thanks for all your and Ishan's support..!! Hope he has a good trip too..

+1 ..

What happened to your bed in your office? Someone stole it?

I absolutely accept that the weather conditions were very harsh in Chang La but you took the decision of not going to nubra even before going to Khardungla.

Sorry for OVER - EXAGGERATING things. I meant mud and not something else you thought.

Thanks ankit and prateek.

It was really nice meeting you and you taking off so much time to help us out. Sorry that you couldn't stay longer yesterday. Legs are much better now and can try walking without attracting too much attention.

@ all - Me and Inder were walking like we had childhood polio resulting out of walking down all the steps of Vaishnodevi temple. It is 12 km distance and we took steps for all the area so by the time we got down, we had lost most of the control of leg muscles.

lol your writing is creatively sarcastic enough

I agree on the fuel front... they said they wanted to go to some place and all... so I will let them answer.

How I wish, they were God, they could have blown the snowstorm away, peed in the fuel tank and rode the bike back home.

Welcome back sirjee!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure lotsa stories to tell..... lets plan Mumbai Pune GTG soon.....
BTW... you writing a trip log or blog????


LOL.... ek movie a sequence ban sakta hai!!!!

Thanks Razor!

Thanks for the kind words Sunny..

One lucky guy he is..!! He can manage so many leaves from office every now and then from office...

You Bet!! His bike was skidding even when we were commuting/traveling in Leh to visit Shanti Stupa and Leh Palace...!!

Thanks Chote Jin..

Thanks Bibek..and ya lotsa spicy stories to share..

Thanks Dinesh..

Plan an overnite g2g and all can join then..

Waah!! Waah!! So, you guys finally made it out..

Again!!!!

Same here Nav..it was good to have some advices from you..

Thanks Deven..!!

We all reached back to pune at 3 in the morning..!! Got to office in the morning..and now at office..

Bingo!! Dreams accomplished FINALLY.. Thanks Vivek..hope to catch up soon..

Thanks Ritwik.. Ya, lets catch up at a g2g..!

Was expecting this to come in the morning..


No bed in office.. feeling very sleepy now..

That was basically due to the harsh weather conditions we faced at Chang La and Khardung La..



But, that idea helped me...otherwise i would have thought of getting the rim-bend corrected there only..which could have taken up a lot of time..

Nothing of that sorts...dont OVER-EXAGGERATE things around..
