I had a full five days weekend this summer and I wanted relief from scorching heat of Delhi. So I decided to go to the ride on my Royal Enfield MotorCycle to the Gangotri for a chilled dip in River Bhagirathi. I Loaded my Royal Enfield Bullet and started a ride towards Uttarkashi from Delhi via Chamba and Tehri. On the way, the snow clad mountains, the spring blossoms and a wide river basin made my ride momentous. The second day I reach Chamba. Chamba is famous for its temple and it is a beautiful city. Here I saw Laxmi-Naryan temple, Chamuda devi temple. It is a very old temple. The whole city is located in the valley. On the third day I crossed the Gangnani’s hot springs. Fourth day we reach Gangotri. Gangotri temple was still snowed in and the temple was decking up in silver paint, preparing for the great Yatra a week away, during which swarming pilgrims descend upon the shrine. I take a dip in glacial water and rejuvenated my body and soul and headed towards another adventurous ride home via Barkot’s rhododendrom jungles.It was a great experience riding the my RoyalEnfield MotorCycle on the hills for the first time.
