| 26th to 30th June, 2005 : Trip to Keylong and beyond | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 30th June, 2005 Got up at 5:30 and set out by 6 AM. It was a beautiful morning. A bit cloudy, but the clouds kissing the mountain peaks just a few meters away had a special charm to it. |

| I rode right into the clouds by the time I reached Rohtang pass. It was chilling at the top. I took off my gloves to click a few snaps and my fingers went numb. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| As soon as I crossed Rohtang, it started drizzling. I was half way down to Manali and the tourist cabs had already started their trips up to Rohtang. I had breakfast at caf� Kothi and got ready for the long and grueling ride back to Delhi. Halfway to Kullu from Manali, my chain started making weird noises. I stopped at a local mech and when he opened the black lid, the chain was so loose that it was lying at the bottom of the chain cover. This was my longest ride in a single day till date, with regards to duration and distance. I started from Koksar at 6 in the morning and reached home at 10 PM, a distance of about 710 Kms. This one trip will be etched in my memory forever. |
