I am back from Ladakh but I am not writing my trip log yet. Its about some associated stuff, read on if you are not a "wannabe everything on 2 wheels" kindya homo sapien! A ride to Ladakh and back is one of the most serious punishments that you deliver to yourself both physically and mentally but it is utterly rewarding too. If you are going on a ride like this in a group or with "just someone else" make sure you are a man and not a boy! Things often and will flare up while making simplest of decisions 'cause patience runs low after really demanding rides! You really donot want to be too close to the Gods, I mean die while riding through the moonscape called Ladakh, it requires full concentration all the time. So after a dayz ride you are mentally exhausted and not in a mood to gulp down bullshits spoken, adviced or commanded which you would not mind while in the cities! You gotta be mature enough to ease out of these situations by just getting along. Try and not boast about your ride during the day to your team mates as they have done the same thing and get seriously annoyed. Make sure you are not a liability on others, and return immediately or part off from the group if you feel you are! And have faith in your abilities, I repeat please have faith in your self and trust me on this. Its just been close to 6 months since I have started to ride a bike regularly. I was verbally bashed and sliced by some celebrated members and tourers on a particular forum most of them who never saw me riding a bike. These also include some stupid speed freaks who think they are Gods(not G.O.D.S.) while speeding and stunting on their Karizmas. Wait for a few more months and I have a few lessons for a selected few of them in Delhi....shhhhh..how ? well .ssshhhhhhh..........donot start peeing in your pants yet, hold it for laters, he he he, and I am not kidding! Well all this in 6 months from a guy who didnot know how to change gears in traffic eh ? You think I am boasting, well its my blog and please do feel lucky and appreciate my efforts on holding myself that I didnot abuse those people here and if you were one of them! I am alive 'cause its illegal to shoot me........he he he......I really donot mind when a freind tells me this, 'cause atleast they know you enough and donot think twice before criticising your wrong doings. But some of them also add the correct advices at the same time. I was hurt but this one's for Manik, brother thanks a lot and I realise your intentions and appreciate your advices. Cannot say the same about most of others. I have a lot of stuff to write and will write but tomorrow!
