Havde endnu en fantastisk tur i Indien i selskab med min kollega Nicky. Denne gang på Mountainbike i den "lave del af Himalaya" i det Nordlige Indien nær den vestlige grænse til Nepal.

Nainital was our first stop in India. After driving for more than 8 hours in the scorching heat of Uttar Pradesh state, we arrived in the cool Himalayan climate of Nainital. At almost 2000 m above see level, Nainital is a favorite hill station for many Indian tourists. We thought Easter would be a peaceful off-season time to visit India. Yet, we were wrong! Hundreds of Indian families had come to Nainital to relax over the Easter holiday. When the holiday was over, streets were empty and prices were 50% off. ... read more

The road to Nainital (via Delhi) was hot... hotter... hottest. With 2 days to cover the distance we decided to get an early start, but, the roads were not in favour of this... the road from Bera to Pali was a combination of SH 16 and NH14 - both equally good (or bad). The road was bad after a while and did not improve till we reached Kishangarh (near Ajmer). The 100kms from Kishangarh to Jaipur was the best on that day. After Jaipur the 6-laning work was in progress and it greatly reduced speeds due to the deep excavations. Between that and the traffic as we neared Manesar & Gurgaon we made it to Delhi exhausted after 14 hours on the road. But the rasam and curd rice waiting at my cousin Sharmila's place kept ... read more
