You Are Viewing Trips
The Video Story Now …
This is a nearly 11 minute video of the trip …..
Since i have kept the quality of the video high the file size is high and it may require patience on your part … but trust me its worth it …
Its better to watch it full screen for the same reason… u just have to click that solid round black button on the player bar below to activate the fullscreen mode ….. Do IT!!
Hope u enjoy !!!
Incase of any comment or query … Feel free to contact me …:P
The video with lower resoltion will be added soon .. will need to re encode with different settings till then the corporate users can enjoy !!
The Picture Story ….
I wanted to write about each day but it seems the busy schedule after 11 leaves, leaves me with no choice other than compiling a picture story. As of now most of pictures are non captioned and i am doing that every now and then …when i get some time on hands … this weekend maybe i can take care of all ….
The link to the picture page is here… (Before going there please read the complete post) http://www.saurabhsachan.com/through-lens/leh-trip/ … i have added two lines there for each day there …..in case you want to go through any specific day the links are down here for individual days…
Best mode to go through the pictures is
Step 1 : Go to the Page.
Step 2 :Scroll to bottom of the page to start from Day 1.
Step 3 : Setup the slideshow mode, scroll little so that u can read the captions that change below with pictures, sitback and enjoy (if u can!!)
For impatient ones … without going in slideshow mode keep clicking next at your own pace … and read if u like what i have to say there ….
For very impatient ones the links to start slideshow for each day are down here dont even go there …
Getting Leh’ed
Getting Leh’ed is every Biker’s exemplary desire …….
So, when i got chance there was no way i could have said no …. there were a lot of groups and many people who were going to do the deed, but at a later date ….. and i didnt know if i would let go of the first oppurtunity to lose (Leh) virginity would i have another chance …… so i told myself … When You Gotta Do It, You Gotta Do It…… this phrase was oft repeated at numerous occasions and to numerous gentle(men and women)…. that we met on the way ….
Before, anything else i must thank one guy … Hitanshu … (though i hate him for not being a party to the affair) … he finally did the deed other way round …. and whose extensive planning served me till the end of the whole ride …. more importantly his knowledege was more accurate, than what we sourced from locals… Hats off to him …
