remembering that insane Kashmir motorbike trip...!




Came across this on somebody's blog today. It is the first part of what we did last year in Kashmir. The stretch between Pang to Tanglang La was the most testing... I really did not know whether I would reach Leh alive - especially after the army doc at Pang told me that I was a retard to have taken two Diamox pills within 4 hours due to mountain sickness and that a Russian dude died there a year before because they could not get him to a lower altitude in time). The good news is that I did live to tell a lot of guys that this was by far the best trip of my life. Pics: http://tmakhija.blogspot.com/2009/07/kashmir-2009-motorbike-trip-pictures.html

I might not do this on a motorbike again, but would definitely be up for hiring a car and doing it all over one more time! Vince on the other hand is planning to take it t0 a different level altogether this time. But then thats Vince... and you can expect him to do the impossible.
