  The 1200+ Km Bike Trip --- Day8- Dev Prayag To Gurgaon/Delhi Dev Prayag to Gurgaon/Delhi : Dev Prayag : We woke up early, freshened up, had some Tea and snacks, vacated the OYO room and started our journey at around 6:40 am towards our destination, Gurgaon/Delhi. It was cloudy but it was not raining. When we started to ride towards Rishikesh there was a cool breeze flowing. It was fun to drive in the cool breeze. In some time we were driving on the mountains with the Holy Ganges flowing alongside in the gorge. Driving cautiously and enjoying the ride we reached Rishikesh. As soon as you enter the city you would witness the hustle-bustle. The town is always flooded with Tourists and Devotees. Rishikesh : By the time we reached Rishikesh it was Breakfast Time. We thought we would have breakfast before moving ahead. If you wish you can get your fuel tanks filled as you see few Petrol Pumps alongside the road. We stopped at a restaurant namely "Rajasthani Mishthan Bhandar " whi...

  The 1200+ Km Bike Trip --- Day7- Govindghat To Dev Prayag Govindghat to Dev Prayag : Joshimath : On Day 7 we woke up early, freshened up and had some Tea & Snacks at the Gurudwara. Deposited back the beddings, blankets, and room keys etc, gave some donation and were all set to start our return journey. As we started our return journey towards Joshimath we had the beautiful memories of our trip and the happiness that we had visited all the places (perhaps more than that) that we initially we thought to visit. We take back some good experiences and some life skills that we learned during the course of our trip. The Day we started our journey back to Dev Prayag, was not a rainy day it was sunny neither, it was a cloudy day perfect for riding the bikes. We quickly rode back to reach the Vishnu Prayag Bridge. The way after that was uphill until you reach Joshimath. You can get your fuel tanks filled at Joshimath or get some fuel at various Petrol Pumps o...

  The 1200+ Km Bike Trip --- Day2- Rishikesh to Pakhi-Joshimath The day of Landslides : Landslide 1:  We had our breakfast early and started our journey to Joshimath by 7:45-8am. We left Bamboo hut to move towards Dev Prayag. As we moved few kilometers the noise in the bike chain became loud. I had been neglecting it for some time now, in-fact the noise had started at the Upper Canal Road but it was not bad as it was now. Anyways ignoring it we continued the journey. The front brakes had also gone worse, the brakes issue was known but the noise in the chains had aggravated. We had just ridden few kilometers; we had to stop as the road was blocked due to a small landslide. A JCB was clearing the landslide rubble. We had to halt for around 20 minutes before the rubble was cleared. While waiting for the landslide to be cleared we just adjusted and tightened the bike chain so that the noise reduced. We started riding again when the rubble was cleared. Landslide2 :  We had jus...
