Water crossings galore!!

 

True, true but there is many more to come..pics are still from day 4 or 5 of a 11 day ride....hold on

 

They already have this, they sent the photographer for the ride

On that note, I am selecting and putting mostly mine or my bike pics from the ride, there are too many others to post here but will put up a link at the end of the thread with all the pics

 

So glad to hear that these pics helped you, makes me very happy and will continue to post more. Thank you for letting me know.

The approach to this is very unique, you will come upon the back of it and not notice it as it will look like it is part of the range but when you come around the bend, you can then see this peak standing almost independently from the rest of the range. It is called Holy Mountain and is believed that you can write a prayer and stack seven stones at the base with your prayer in between and it will be answered by the mountain gods!!

 

Just some mountain views-



One of the lunch stops -


BRO (Border Roads Organisation) is constantly working to improve the roads and provide more access - Get here before the rest of the world does!!
