Road trip from Bangalore to Ladakh and back by Akash Mohan in September 2023

Sharing the experience of my September 2023 drive from Bangalore to Ladakh and back (via Delhi, Kashmir, Manali, Chandigarh) in a Mahindra Thar (Diesel). 

Day 1 Bangalore to Nagpur - 17 Hours 

Day 2 Nagpur to Agra - 16 Hours 

Day 3 Agra to Delhi - 2.5 Hours 

First day was all in all pretty good. Wide empty roads and we cruised along fairly easily. Special mention to the hyderabad ORR. Probably the best stretch of road on the trip for me.

Second day was pretty terrible. I expected the biggest problem to be cattle so was prepared for that but I didn't expect the roads to be so bad, relatively speaking. Very bumpy ride, potholes big and small and varying levels of frequently. Not really sure why it's so bad. Either way this was a real energy snapper and we barely limped into Agra without bumping into any cattle. Better roads and we'd have made it all the way to Delhi. 

There's a real shortage of good eateries on the way. Carry plenty of foodstuff. 

Delhi to Ladakh: 

Stopped at Patnitop and went from Patnitop to Sonamarg directly. There's construction work ongoing in places but if you leave early there should be no issues. Beyond Qazigund it was smooth sailing all the way till Sonamarg. 

Hello guys - I recently completed my Bangalore to Ladakh road trip. Reached Delhi today and will be traveling back to Bangalore over the next 3 days. Thought I'd note down a few points that might help others from a road point of view. 

1. Sonamarg to Leh stretch had excellent roads all through barring small stretches on the Zoji La descent. The Kargil to Namik La climb stretch is just stunning.

2. The old route from Nubra to Pangong is washed out. The new route is via Rongdo village. When coming from Diskit side take a left immediately after the IOC petrol pump, go for another 1-2 kms where you will see a board directing you to take right towards pangong. The new Road is pretty much 95% offroading until Tangste. There is basically no roads. You are driving on gravel, rocks or river beds. The road is good from Tangste onwards. 

3. For people exiting chushul, I'd suggest taking the Kaksang La route even if it's longer (while going to Hanle at least). It's very steep but fulled tarred throughout. Absolutely amazing drive with the added bonus of 2 stunning lakes on the way. 

4. While going to Tso Moriri, it's completely offroad from Sumdo onwards.

5. While I myself got lucky with my timing, while traveling from Kullu to Mandi theres a place where vehicles are let through one way only. This may include waiting times of more than an hour depending on your timing.

6. I drove the Thar diesel. Happy to report i had no DPF issues that's been an issue with BS6 cars. As a precaution I tried wherever possible to keep above 1.5k RPM without being reckless.

Pune to Goa (North) via Karad, Malkapur - Indian Roadie Preferred Route, Motoring Route, Driving Route for road trip

Indian Roadie Preferred Route, Motoring Route, Driving Route, best route for road trip from 

Pune to Goa North via Karad, Malkapur 

(Pune_GoaNorth) in mid September 2023 was excellent barring a short stretch after the ghats. 

Pune (Balewadi Stadium) (MH) ---- Pune outskirts (New Katraj Tunnel) ---- Khed Shivapur Toll Plaza (MH) ---- Shivare ---- Varve Bk ---- Kikvi ---- Sarola ---- Nira River Bridge ---- Shirwal ---- Khandala ---- Khambatki Ghat ---- Surur (ROR: Wai, Panchgani, Mahabaleshwar) ---- Satara (MH) ---- Umbraj ---- Karad (Sahyadri Super Speciality Hospital on left of NH48) (MH) ---- Exit NH48 about 5 kms ahead of Karad by taking right turn under flyover ---- Paachwad (MH) ---- Kokrud ---- Malkapur (MH). 

Thereafter, there are 2  options: 

Option A: Take right to Aamba ---- Aamba Ghat (quite picturesque and foggy at times) ---- Saakharpa ---- Shiposhi ---- Korle ---- Bhambed ---- Waatul where it connects to old Goa Road before Rajapur. From there it's new road all the way to Patradevi, North Goa. Keep looking for Mapusa road-sign to take the right service road. 

Malkapur to Aamba road is slightly bad in patches and also slightly patchy from Aamba Ghaat upto Khind. From Saakharpa onwards, it's smooth road. Avoid temptation to race. 

Option B: Take left at Malkapur to Anushkura/ Anuskura Ghat - down to ahead of Rajapur on way to Goa. The route is picturesque, too.

Food options: 

There are several roadside food outlets at Satara, Karad, Aamba, Bhambed, Rajapur, Kudal, Kankavli. 

For breakfast there is Vittal Kamat restaurant and few more. 

For lunch one can stop at Pavhaner Restaurant, Kankavli. It had good local menu. Prawn curry is delicious. 

Expected timings: 

Start drive from Pune at 5 am. 

Reach Goa by 3.30 pm.

Delhi to Kolkata - Indian Roadie Preferred Itinerary, Route in September - November 2023

I (Deep Banerjee, Founder - Indian Roadie and associated forums) am getting scores of messages almost everyday from people planning to drive from Delhi/ Gurgaon/ Noida/ Ghaziabad to Kolkata during or before the Durga Puja in October 2023. 

My suggestion for Delhi to Kolkata (Delhi_Kolkata) route and itinerary (for September, October, November 2023) to all such people: 

Day 1 Noida (5 am) - Agra - Agra Lucknow Expressway but exit at Etawah to almost immediately touch NH19 - Kanpur (long flyover crisscrosses the city) - Allahabad bypass - Varanasi. 

Avoid driving upto Lucknow or even Buxar unless you want to sample the delicacies of Lucknow. The drive from Lucknow to Varanasi or Buxar to Sasaram or Aurangabad is not very pleasant. 

Day 2: Varanasi (Start around 11 am after Kashi Vishwanath Mandir darshan and wonderful breakfast) - Sasaram - Aurangabad - Barhi - Topchanchi (halt for the night). 

Day 3: Start from Topchanchi by 8 am after breakfast - Gobindpur - Kumardhubi - exit NH19 for a loop drive of 8 kms and leisurely drive over Maithon Dam - stop for a while at Kalyaneshwari Mandir and the lip smacking 'peda' - touch NH19 once again immediately after the Barakar River Bridge - Asansol bypass - Durgapur - Panagarh bypass - Bardhaman bypass - stop for 'lyangcha', samosas, chai at Shaktigarh - Palsit toll plaza - while crossing Singur look right to view the skeletal remains of the Tata Motors factory - Dankuni toll plaza - Kolkata (3 pm tentatively). 

Varanasi to Kolkata (680 kms) can be done in a day. However, with the massive road widening work which is on between Panagagarh and Dankuni, it's best to split the drive to avoid getting frustrated. 

Note: There are time tested and favourably reviewed Indian Roadie Preferred Hotel and Indian Roadie Preferred Cafe brands all over India. The tariffs will have to be negotiated by you. I am not in the business of selling hotel rooms or breakfast/ lunch/ dinner. However, for names of such facilities on a route you must Order Indian Roadie Stickers and Fix Indian Roadie Stickers on your car. Some businesses might offer extra benefits to cars displaying the ubiquitous stickers outside and inside.

Bus ride from ID Hospital to Akashvani Bhawan, Kolkata on 2023-09-18

At 5.25 pm on Monday 2023-09-18 completed a 9 kms ride upto All India Radio office in a local blue and yellow private bus in Kolkata. 

Paid a meagre ₹15 for the 9 kms ride. 

It was just an effort to keep myself grounded to the roots.

Blind Spots in a car

While driving, be aware of the traffic around you and do not steer out of your lane unless there is enough distance to do so safely. 

Learn about Blind Spots in cars, buses, trucks. It can be a deciding factor between life and death. Satisfy yourself that you understood it. 

Understanding the concept of Blind Spots is far more important than build quality and fuel economy.

Irrespective of how late I might be in returning home, I make it a point to clean my VW Vento before tucking it into the covered garage. 

Most importantly, this post is to convey an important message by letting everyone know that I ensure that I wash my car just outside the main gate of my own house so that nobody gets a chance to complain. I will never do anything knowingly which I wouldn't want anyone else to do to irritate and/or cause inconvenience to me. I prefer to be absolutely sensible + responsible and value the education I received during my school days. More than a decade of good schooling which my parents barely managed to afford after a lot of sacrifice can't be allowed to go waste! 

P.S: The photos and video were clicked after returning home late in the evening from Salt Lake on Friday 2023-09-08.

. 

Every individual in Indian Roadie and associated forums is expected to be empathetic, responsible and sensible. If you are not in the same page as the ideals of these initiatives of mine, we don't want you to be with us. Please evict yourself and find solace elsewhere! 

We are for Class Over Mass and Quality Over Quantity.

Bengal Trails - Kaash flower on Dwarekeswar River, Purulia, WB

West Bengal is at its best in September and October 2023 when it starts readying for Durga Puja. The beauty of white 'kaash' flowers swaying in fields and dry river beds is a sight to behold. 

The attached photo of a bed of 'kaash' flowers clicked from Kashipur bridge over Dwarekeswar River, Purulia, WB will make you drive down to West Bengal, a state of abundant natural beauty. 

You have a wonderful car. Don't allow it to age sleeping in its parking slot or by driving short distances within the confines of your town/ city and yourself remaining concerned about mileage (fuel economy) all the time.
