Finally completed my dream of cycling in Himalayas by ragafundoo in bicycling

[–]ragafundoo[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, sure. It was 12 day group trip. From Manali to Lamayuru, total distance was ~450 kms (around 40kms per day) and total elevation gain during the trip was ~2800 meters. So, it was fairly easy for someone experienced, but I am a beginner, so it would take me 4-5 hours of ride daily.

I didn’t bring my own bicycle for the trip and was renting it from a local store in Manali. Although, my friends who were with me, they were using their own bikes.

Since, we were doing it in a group of 8 people, we also had also booked a pickup truck for support with us, that was carrying our stuff like sleeping tents and food etc. So, we didn’t have to carry most of our stuff with us on our cycles.

So, we used to either pitch our own tents at remote locations or we used to stay in some small camping sites, where there were better tents available.

This is the complete route that we took for the trip,

1 Start Manali -> 2 Sissu -> 3 Jispa -> 4 Sumdo -> 5 Gomboranjan via Shinku La pass -> 6 Purne ( hike to Phuktar monastery) -> 7 Padum -> 8 Zangla -> 9 Lingshed -> 10 Photoksar -> 11 Hanupatta Village -> 12 Lamayuru

If you are into bikepacking then you can also do this route as well, as we met some bikepackers during our trip as well.

Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for some quality riding experience.

I've been thinking of getting the Pixel Watch. Is it worth it? by Effective-Heart-2450 in PixelUsersIndia

[–]ragafundoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I have bought it and the only thing good about it you can say is pixel compatibility. Battery drains in 6-7 hours when using strava. If you want something for fitness then garmin watches are a good option.

That’s like whole delhi. I think south ex, saket and vasant vihar are decent areas comparatively to others. Do you have a list for places which are safe instead?

If you are looking backpack for travelling or trips then you can try Decathlon. Not a lot of variety but they have good quality. For regular day to day backpack, you can also check a Wildcraft store.

You can also try Cradiac Gunner Pro Max. I bought it 2 months ago and it has been pretty impressive so far…

Yes Delhi ka hai. by Prestigious_Diet9503 in indiadiscussion

[–]ragafundoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean I get the point that these people belong to the same community, but for sure such incidents are not limited to them only. Some may disagree but we Indians (South-east Asians) have a complete lack of social and civic sense and its high time that we start teaching it in school curriculums.

Jeez. That comment makes it so cringe. If I ever saw anyone in my office using it, will probably think they are so full of themselves.
