Since Nov'04, when I saw snow in real. I always wanted to ride on snow covered road with plenty of snow all around me.

So, after my 2008 visit to Ladakh, I decided in 09 it will be as soon as the roads are opened for Ladakh. So, me on Fiero and my friend Nitin(Trance_nut) from Delhi on his CBZ decided to head to snowland in first week of June.

June 07: 270km: Sundernagar - Keylong
June 08: 367km: Keylong - Leh

June 10: 156km: Leh - Karu - Pangong Tso

All these pictures are making my excitement to reach this place even higher.

BTW what took you so long to bring the travelogue here, did you get stuck somewhere in the passes

a fiero conquering Leh. This should be amazing. I see that you have the new headlight fairing?. Did you do any mod to the bike or is it stock?.
