It was Thusday on 25th December and 27th and 28th was Saturday and Sunday. So you need a leave on 26th. Right now I don’t have remember it was an another holiday or I applied for a leave. But it was our (Me and Mikhail) trip to Rajasthan from 25th to 28th December.

Rajasthan Trip: Sunset in Desert

It was my longest trip on bike till now. We traveled nearly 2000km in 4 days. But it was not according to our plan. What we plan was to start our journey in the morning but it was 12 noon when we were able to start our journey to wards Rajasthan via Delhi- Gurgaon.

Got up at 7. We were already behind the plan for the day. Wanted to bike till a few kilometers beyond Gramphoo. Not to be now. Finally.. at about 8:45 in the morning we decided to move, leaving the luggage in the hotel only.

The drive from Kullu is very easy paced and leisurely. Here are a few pics

Notice the third goat from the left in the pic. Its giving me such a funny and confused look

Manali

Finally reached Manali. The snow covered mountains were just so inviting. We were very excited.

Here i made a tactical mistake. Inflated the tyres to the optimum pressure(28, 34)
Anyway, had a hearty breakfast of paranthas, poori bhaaji and bhaturey among ourselves. A few strolls on the Mall road in Manali and we were ready for the climb. It was already 11 in the morning and it had started drizzling a bit.
As we started up, the weather alternated between sunny and a slight drizzle.
Let the pictures do the talking now. Its almost one at night. Can’t write anymore

The horses/khacchhars grazing around. I personally feel this is a great shot  Critics be damned!!

Mostly, the traffic was descending from the pass. We were one of the few who were going up at that time.
