Hidden Himalayas - Spiti Valley and Chandertal

Chander, if you keep on advertising your wonderful country, once you will find us at your door.
Thank you again for excellent pics

Chanderjeet - Once again you have posted an amazing Ride Report!
You guys are true ADV riders.

I truely wish I had places like that near me so I could go there and get my ass kicked like you guys!


I'm going to get on the bike today, and go someplace, and see what I find...
Q~

Hope you find someplace really nice.

ROMANIA. WOW

Thats one place, i would LOVE to ride. Its the history of the country that calls out.....AMAZING

I always love your ride reports, doubly because you do it on a little bike. Makes me laugh at the tough guys riding gravel roads on cush, big displacement things (in a nice, no offense way)

Thanks for the added pictures Chanderjeet - you've got some front page candidates

The panorama really gives the feeling of being there, and i wish I was, but with a warm meal in my belly so I didn't have to decide whether to ride or cook

Magic mountain pictures! Awesome!

Let me see if I can read your mind:

"This sucks"

Another stellar report. I have one of your photos as my background image.
​

glad

more pics have been uploaded on page - 1

I agree. We need to be reminded now and then that adventure riding has nothing to do with all this gear we obsess about.

it's not the destination ,but the journey that counts! but you and your friends have that figured out already! incredible chanderjeet!

True.....

I was thinking about the same myself. I mean what can be worse than that. I remember i had a good look at that paved road to leh when we left it and took the offroad trail to spiti valley. Thanks for the comment though, it really boasts the confidence.

Those pics are GREAT! Thanks for adding them.

You've got a big fan in North Carolina, USA!!

You guys rock

13000 feet with a mesh jacket :eek1 Maybe it's time to look into some winter gear...

BTW, I am going to be in Delhi next week. I would love to meet you guys!

What do you mean, he has a hoodie on under the mesh

Fantastic ride report - that is a lovely part of the world and made even more so from the saddle of a bike.

The V-Strom Collective bows to your awesome accomplishments.

A Wet hoodie

Here's the irony... i had bought pair of brand new off-road waterproof boots and i thought i would wear them on this trip. But i could only wear them in the plains coz i couldnt change the gears and apply brakes wearing those. I didnt want to take chance with them in the mountains.

Lesson learned : Boots need time to set in.

V-Strom i love that bike.
