          Sure.
          Do publish your plan once you finalize. It'll be good to meet up for tea/coffee/beer if we happen to be in the same place same time.

              Hey all,

              Hope everyone's planning is in full swing. :-)

              Here's what I'm planning this year:


              1 Delhi Pathankot 510 9.5
              2 Pathankot Srinagar 364 8
              3 Srinagar kargil 204 7
              4 kargil Leh 255 6
              5 leh leh 0 0
              6 Leh Hunder 128 4
              7 Hunder Leh 128 4
              8 Leh Spangmik 148 6
              9 Spangmik leh 148 6
              10 leh Korzok(via tso kar) 237 9
              11 Korzok hanle 164 5
              12 hanle sarchu 289 9
              13 sarchu Keylong 110 5
              14 Keylong Mandi 225 7.5
              15 Mandi Delhi 443 8
              16 buffer buffer
              I just have a question about the hanle stretch:

              Is Hanle - Sarchu ambitious? If so what place could I rest on the route?

              Any other tips and suggestions are welcome.

                Hanle-Sarchu looks ambitious
                * Why don't you do Spangmik-Hanle via Chulshul (if you get the permit)
                * Hanle-Korzok
                * Korzok-Sarchu
                This way you don't need to return to Leh.

                Also try Hunder-Spangmik via Wari la. It will likely to be open if you go in or after July.

                  Hello, I am from Kolkata and plan to ride to Leh in August, 2015.

                  I am planning to start from Kolkata and back but am being advised against it as it is too taxing for both man and machine..

                  Also, if anyone is riding out in the first week of August, we could perhaps ride together..

                  Any inputs please??

                    Save your dates for actual Leh ride rather than wasting 4-5 days riding from Kolkata to Dehi or Chandigarh. The best place to start your ride for Leh are Chandigarh or Jammu

                          Thanks dichkaun, I've not taken the WariLa or Spangmik-Chulshul options as I want to to trace the entire manali leh highway at least once. The Hunder-Spangmik Section would cut Upshi etc and the Chulshul would cut tanglang la right?

                          Any other ideas on how I could still visit these places and cover the manali leh highway entirely??

                            Yes that will be an issue. You can choose to go via the Manali route till Leh. That'll let you cover the stretch

                              Thank you for the reply, Sir.
                              As advised, I did a bit of research about starting from Chandigarh or Jammu, however it will not be convenient owing to the train timings and availability.
                              A few other questions:
                              If I am to start riding from New Delhi and continue on to Jammu - Srinagar - Kargil - Leh - Around Leh - Nubra Valley - Leh - Sarchu - Manali - Delhi, the entire trip will be completed in 12-13 days, estimated. Is is fine to go without bookings??

                              I am hearing about some permits, Do Motorcycles require permits for the above mentioned route??

                              Lastly, for a budget trip, for the Delhi-Leh-Delhi part, how much money will I need??
                              The ride is a Bullet Standard 500 (UCE)

                              Thank You.

                                A few other questions:
                                If I am to start riding from New Delhi and continue on to Jammu - Srinagar - Kargil - Leh - Around Leh - Nubra Valley - Leh - Sarchu - Manali - Delhi, the entire trip will be completed in 12-13 days, estimated. Is is fine to go without bookings??

                                I am hearing about some permits, Do Motorcycles require permits for the above mentioned route??

                                Lastly, for a budget trip, for the Delhi-Leh-Delhi part, how much money will I need??
                                The ride is a Bullet Standard 500 (UCE)

                                Thank You.

                                Cost will depend on how luxuriously you travel. Also if you are alone, cost goes higher as you cannot share accommodation.
