    Riding through the foothills of the Himalayas

    True, but that exists only for around till you reach the outskirts/bypass. But yeah, a hop from Delhi to places like Kullu or Shimla will save you the hassle.

    Riding through the foothills of the Himalayas

    I went on a bike ride in the last week of November, to India. My destination was the district of Kinnaur in the state of Himachal Pradesh, India. The name of the state, translated into English means the land on the foothills of the Himalayas. The average height of the district was around 3000m...

    India Trip From Revzilla CT

    Umling La was recently opened up to foreigners with an ILP (Inner Line Permit). I guess that's why the hype around it. A decade or so ago, there was similar hype around Khardungla - the then highest road at 18, 380 ft.

Post 1000, the pro account is a few dollars a month. But I am yet to extinguish my free limit - I have had the Flickr account for...

    Last Youtube Video of MaxWrist at Deals Gap

    I have seen a lot of his videos. Why do I feel he does it on purpose. Puts himself into a situation where he most likely will crash, and gain online attention. Some of his crashes were outright horrific. I remember one when he crashed into a crash barrier at high speed and was flung over into a...

    Earbuds that stay in your ears

    This is something I need to check out. I use the Cardo 4x JBL in the AGV K6, but my experience with speakers in that helmet has not been good. My ears start to hurt after 2 hours or so. This isn't the case with my older AGV K3SV with a similar setup. Hence, I have been using the K3 more often...

    What the heck….mental hesitation…

    Interesting conversation. I have been a victim of mental hesitation often enough to realize that I am not the kind of rider who appreciates roaming randomly. I have understood my emotions and mental state before I go out for a ride, and there is a drastic difference in my enthusiasm for a ride...
