  • Ladakh- The Desert In Skies!!

    Friends,

    This would be my dream ride. I am 28yrs old and would like to feel Ladakh, rigth, you read right!! I don't want to see it, but feel it!!
    It's one of the amazing place in India or in world!!

    This thread will be my start to end for Ladakh preparation and back to mumbai. I have read many threads here. Few have travelled many times, few travelled solo.Even I would be travelling Solo in April.

    It's too early to start this thread but my progress will be guided by senior xbhpians, as well as nurtured here itself!!

    I would be diving ny preparation/ trip / schedules / etc here by step by step.

    Please help guys!! i will be posting the wuestions very soon....

    I have come back from my solo ride to Leh only 2 weeks back. Keep shooting your queries so that I can keep on answering them one by one from what I have experienced.
    Advice is a form of nostalgia.
    Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

          Doing it solo needs some sense and info from senior xbhpians so that we can be ready for good or worst of it!!

              Dont worry, In early june you wont face much or no rains..!! As Ladakh comes under Rain Shadow Area. For that matter even later, hardly light drizzles in the later months..
