zestbiker-if there is a SPIRIT,I ride it
I got to know about the Zanskar region only after i joined BCMT with beautiful logs from many seasoned travelers inspiring me to visit.
This remote region is 1100kms away from home and the problem is that all the friends i made through BCMT had already visited the region sometime or the other-some even twice and hence I had no experienced company to join me - my regular friends are into the luxury stuff-if you know what i mean-roaming on broken roads in far off lands doesn't catch their fancy one bit-so no go from that side-wife and sons wanted to join in but with school,tutions,music classes and home responsibilities,that couldn't transpire either.
That left Blor Betty-my trusty Duke390 daily ride-and me alone to make the trip.
So after much cajoling,convincing and finally getting the blessings of my parents ,approval of the high stepper wifey,Blessings from the Lord's above,finally on a cool Sep29 2018,Blor Betty and me rolled towards Zanskar.
