    No need to come back to Leh.Come back to Karu and proceed to Chumathang.Stay at Chumathang and next day head to Tso Morir.
    Thanks for the inputs Narender ji.

    Any suggestions on the point 2 on where to break the journey? I wanted to spend a day in Kasol and hence I planned for Sarchu to Kasol.

    Thanks bro.
    I am guessing you meant by stretch from Udhampur to patnitop.

    Time to bug you guys again . Few more questions before the brain lines drain out

    1> Srinagar Gulmarg, Sopore, Kupwara, lolab, Sopore, Bandipore, Wular lake, Masnbal lake, Srinagar --> Is this circuit doable in a day? Depending on the answers, I may have to skip few places or add a day to the travel, second option one seems highly unlikely though
    2> Sarchu to Kasol -> Again, is this doable in a day (August first week to be precise)

    3> Pangong to Tso Moriri via Chushul, Tsaga -> Do we need permits for this route? What are all the places I need to mention in the permit docs is I want to do this stretch and yes, what are the chances of getting permits if they are needed? If no permits, then will have to go back to Leh and start from there

    Cheers

    I have MRFs on my CBR and not Contis, so I am hoping that the tyres should not be a problem. Yes I am carrying basic spares so that I can take care of minor issues if any come by. Hope all goes well
    Jeevan,carry extra tubes for rear and front tire for your CBR.
    Circuit has numerous off road section full of boulders and a dent/bend in your alloy rim may occur anytime.Your tire will loose air pressure in case of busted rim so tubes will come handy in such a scenerio.
    As far as spare fuel is concerened,carry extra fuel in pet bottles from Karu itself.However petrol in black rates is available in village Lower Sumdo,en route to Tso Moriri.You can also purchase petrol at Pang and Sarchu in black rates.
