Day – 2 - February 10th, 2015 - Rampur to Nako
The hotel at Rampur was quite comfortable with very friendly and helpful staff. But somehow I could not sleep well this night for unknown reasons. Targeted to leave hotel by 0830 HRS so as to escape the early morning chill. Was ready well in time and left Rampur at 0830.
Had fuelled the bike the previous day at Ambala, so decided to refuel somewhere ahead. It was a bright sunny morning but very windy. Winds were so fast that even the bike was swaying on turns. Tanked up at Tapri and even filled up the five litre can that I was carrying. The fuel bunk at Powari is no more functional, so if you don’t tank up at Tapri then either go to Peo or carry on with whatever fuel you have.
Had to stop at a few places for Landslide clearances. Roads were bad as usual with some good roads in Ribba and Akpa area which were iced. Beyond Khab the roads became better but the amount of snow also increased. Throughout the way there were icicles hanging from the mountains and they were not melting. Went on with some video on-off stops and a few pictures on the way.
Rest I will let the pictures say……
