This post is in continuation with a previous one and a part of my Spiti Valley Bike Ride. We traveled from Delhi to Narkanda on Day 1, Narkanda to Sarahan on Day 2 and Sarahan to Chitkul on Day 3. Details of our 3rd day of the journey are provide further in this post. To read the travel log of Day 2 or previous parts, please click on the link below.<\/p>\n

Journey so Far: Narkanda to Sarahan – Entering the Valleys of Kinnaur<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

For some reason, I got up at 4 in the morning. The plan was to start as early as possible and not delay like we did yesterday in Narkanda but not this early. Still, I was up and could not go back to sleep. I walked out to the Balcony and just sat there till sunrise, enjoying the nature all around us and the absolute silence which we Delhi-Walas are not at all used to.<\/p>\n

At 6, I woke Narender first then walked to the room next to us and woke our French friends. The destination for today was the small village of Chitkul; which actually was the destination for yesterday but we ended up in Sarahan instead. I had absolutely no idea of the road or the journey ahead; or how long would we have to ride to get there. The miscalculation, ignorance, delayed start from Narkanda<\/a><\/strong> and wrong turn from yesterday taught me a valuable lesson and I intended to act on it.<\/p>\n
