Banker by profession, wanderer by heart and now a TBhPian..!!

Hello All,

After being admitted as a member almost a fortnight ago, am finally posting up my introduction to this wonderful world of TBHP..!

I spent the last fortnight exploring many threads ( had been doing this for a month though ).

Coming to myself :

I am Jaykumar Jadeja / M /32 from Ahmedabad,Gujarat. Working with a Pvt Sector Bank posted in Mehsana.

I came across this site by a post on an another forum and am addicted ever since..

The learnings one can gather from this site are enormous.

The jewels in the family include Alto (2007 - 65,000 kms), Esteem (2007 - 68,000 kms) and Innova ( 2005 - 87,000 kms) + my Enfield Thunderbird - "Raahi" ( 2002 - 55,000 kms) and a few other assortments ( Activas, CBZ)

I have always considered myself to be more of a motorcycle traveller and absolutely love travelling to remote places...

My trips have been to the mountains only..Himachal Pradesh, Uttaranchal, J&K and Arunachal Pradesh though my favourite is Ladakh (have done 2 trips there and hope to be 3rd time lucky next year)

My photogalleries are here :

Photographs by Jay :: Fotopic.Net - Ladakh & Spiti ride - LKM 2008
My days with myself.... - Ride to the Land of Lamas :: Fotopic.Net - Ladakh ride - LKM 2006
My Dayz With MYSELF :: Fotopic.Net - Rides in and around Gujarat & Himachal Pradesh
http://jugaad.fotopic.net- Ride to Arunachal Pradesh

I guess, i've already stretched the intro too far... look forward to interacting with other members soon

A warm welcome to TBHP. Nice to see a wanderer by heart.
We probably have crossed each other during our Ladakh trip, 2006. Who knows!

I'll go through your huge stock of pictures soon.

Have a great time here.

Hi Jay! Good to see you're finally here! Your expertise will be of great help, esp in the route and travel queries forum!

Thanks Rudra and Tanveer for the warm welcome

@ Rudra - What time had you travelled there..?

@ Tanveer - Definitely look forward to sharing.

Hi Jay,

Welcome aboard. After seeing that you have travelled so much, its really hard to believe that you have just joined Team BHP. But I guess, Better late than Never. I cant wait for your travelogues and other experiences.
