The write up is giving me goose bumps. It beautifully captures the spirit of our upcoming adventure. The way it describes our brotherhood, the shared bond, and the breathtaking landscapes we’ll explore is truly inspiring. It really brings to life the essence of our journey and the camaraderie that makes it so special. This adventure is shaping up to be an unforgettable experience for all of us.

Eagerly waiting. Time to burn some asphalt. #EkAurMA #PhirSeUdChalle Aando

Talking about asphalt, puncture kit kaun rakh raha hai?

[Charanpreet]

Old days...Ride discussions are back on forum. Puncture Kit kaun rakhega, tools Kaun rakhega..I am already loving it ..

And the sleepless nights with anxiety and rush starts again, still feels like the first ride with the brothers for eternity.
So desperate to make the history, to share the moments, to have that eye to eye conversation on the road through our rear view mirrors, to follow the brother riding in front in the same pot holes. To get high on the company of brothers around. Just to be there in that moment. Where conversations don't need words but the presence. The wind buzzing OM MANI PADME HUM through our hearts and minds.
As Rajiv bhai said. Write up giving gooze bumps.
Also making my adrenaline pump everytime I read this, and so irresistible to go through it again by my brother aka irritating
Ab bas. AANDO

What are the dates btw?

[instantsharma]

23rd Aug to 2nd Sept are the tentative dates chief

[Vaibhav Yadav]

I might have the complete tools set. I'll looks for it and update. Regarding rental bikes, do we need to carry tube or it will be available?

[dr_abbas]

Update on entering Chandra Taal region if entering from Losar ( Kaza side) or Koksar (Manali side).
It is advisable to cross the checkpost as early as possible.
There is no declared specific timing to cross the check post but the earlier it's done better it is as there is no network in that region so the disaster management teams does not allow late entry on that route.
There is no mobile network after crossing the check post and at Chandra taal region entry.
It's better to pre-book your stay at Chandra taal, only camp stays are available.
Few of the camp stays may allow to pitch own tent (on payment basis) and at their discretion only. No personal camping is allowed.

Awesome writeup Ash. It is actually giving goosebumps and good to see people/discussion back on forum like good old days. There is no 2nd thought that this ride is going to be full of life time memories. All the very best to all the riders.

I'm certain people must be having all the tools with them but let me know if tyre opening tools/rods with adhesives required. Or complete puncture kit required for tube or tubeless bikes.

Broh, today in our meeting, it was analyzed that we do not need any fuel or water carriers with us. So, we dont have to carry them in the backup vehicle. It will be handled.

So with these deletions, your list will have a new item i.e.x pulse clutch cable. So we will be carrying 2 cables for 4 bikes. 1 CP is getting and 1 is f or you to carry.

In addition we have to ensure all riders are carrying bike covers.
