Today we are packing and putting our bikes together in preparation for our overnight train to Patankhot, a town a the base of the western Himlaya on the Indian Plain.
Given the temperatures here in Delhi and Patankhot (105F +), we will likely bus up to the first pass at Dalhousie (elev 1600m) and then bike triumphantly downhill into Chamba, our first stop (1000m). The temperatures should be bareable enough to set out from there - as things are looking up!
For pictures of our first pass, Sach Pass, you can visit yogeshsarkar.com, http://otbiking.wordpress.com/2008/01/05/sach-pass-2007-photos/, or google 'biking Sach pass'.
We still have several days before we reach there, and hopefully we will be able to update the blog before then, too. More to follow!!!
