Default PEAK SEASON: STARTED

With the month of April, it was time we start to conquer and reconquer the known and the unknown heights! Season starts with a ride to 3400 meters above sea-level, HATU!

One week of stress generating work, one week of banked up frustration, one week of eagerness to seek the truth which is definitely out there! A 900 kilometers round trip ride to Hatu Peak, near Narkanda, Himachal Pradesh takes off the lid and announces the Himalayan riding season has started.



The fellas: Eric & Shamik on a Pulsar 180 and Unicorn respectively. Stay tuned to this thread, as we give you some snow in this scorching heat of April!

Date:14th and 15th April,2007
Camera used: Canon PowerShot A520

lets make it a highest altitude attained this calender year, and lock it before the leh ride so as to avoid a fight.
