Cycling the worlds highest roads
http://www.sentient-entity.pwp.bluey....uk/index.html this site is rich in information regarding cycling in Ladakh and other high altitudes areas with travelogues, tips for bikers etc.

In their own words

Quote:
This website is (mostly) about mountain cycling. Not "mountain biking", in its commonly-used sense of "cycling off-road", but riding in real mountains, with a lot of climbing, whether on- or off-road. In 2001, we cycled the Manali-Leh Highway in the Himalayan mountains of northern India. We met quite a few cyclists on our trip, yet found information helpful in planning the trip to be hard to find, or even inaccurate. We've also been to the French and Italian Alps, the Pyrenees, the Bolivian Andes, the Southern Alps of New Zealand and to several hilly regions in the UK. The point of this website is to provide some (I hope) useful information for other cyclists planning trips to high regions, and a bit of entertainment at the same time.
