Programme: Shimla - Kinnaur - Spiti - Lahaul - Leh road - Laddakh or 1 large thousand miles, half of which more than 3500m altitude, 6 passes around 5000m altitude, not far from 17.000m of elevation gain, in short we like the challenge!

The purpose of this blog is to present a topo of this route, particularly those who would do it and would seek news, but also those who are still reluctant to engage. There, I said, it's really a great trip. Easy not easy but the reach of anyone doing some biking. Better to practice a little before going to enjoy it more and not suffer too much in the hills. Better also like a little mountain biking history not too too much hassle on the track portions rotten. That said, the tar in advance, and we crossed qqs riders on bikes road type.
