Dorje guest house - our home in Leh
Picture
Break time. A day off from riding. The saddle bags could use a break. 
Picture
And so could the bikes. 
Picture
And back on the road after a break. 
Picture
And we couldn't be happier. The road is where we want to be! 
Picture
Colourful bawa enroute to the highest motorable road in the world
Picture
Adi on top of the world! Just look at that smile! 
Picture
The Khardungla tiger? nah. That's Ketan - it was too cold to take off his balaclava
Picture
The world's highest motorable road! And it's open 12 months of the year! 
Picture
Mr. Cool on K Top
Picture
World's highest cafeteria
Picture
World's highest marathon! Which supermen run marathons here?!! Adi looks exhausted just sitting there. 
Picture
Down the pass and on to Nubra valley
Picture
Life behind bars - What awesome scenery! 
Picture
Very encouraging. The bridge is weak, so only one vehicle at a time. 
Picture
A village! After long long stretches of nothing. We stopped for tea and tsampa. 
Picture
Which is better? Classic or Thunderbird? 
Picture
Look who's here! Mr Reddy! Bumped into my old chum Indivar Reddy from Bangalore at Khardung La.  What a surprise. 
Picture
With his gang from Bangalore! The Motoholics. There were 2 BMWs, one ancient pre-war Norton, 2 ancient Yamaha RD 350s and 1 Enfield. None of the fancy bikes survived - the BMWs and the Norton went home in trucks - and only the Royal Enfield and the RD350s made it. Go Figure. 
​Read the story of Rajesh Nair and his grandma fetish in the book. 
Picture
Nubra valley was awesome! There is an actual sandy desert here on top of the world
Picture
What a view! You have to stop and soak it in. 
Picture
Nubra Nubra Nubra...you can't beat this view
Picture
We found an amazing camp tucked away by the river side. Talk about being off the beaten track. 
Picture

Lost in such a small town? Adi is clueless in Diskit
Picture
The sun sets over a wonderful day
Picture
The view from our tent! Awesome
