Gurgaon To Nainital Bike Trip

Dear readers, it is the happiest day of my life, because I have just reached Naukuchiatal today. It was a really amazing and joyful journey starting at 05:00 PM. The journey today is 10th of sept 2022 and day is Saturday. I woke up at 3:30 AM today and did all the preparation, took the necessary things as luggage and came to the ground floor of the tower of my society. The ground floor is the parking area where my most beautiful scooty ( Hero Duet) was waiting for me. It was an amazing time for me, I just went down and took the luggage in front of the scooty and pressed the self start switch. It was a super amazing start of my life, then i kept the engine started for a few seconds to warm up the engine and then started moving. 

I am very happy this time, I do not know why I am feeling super today. Slowly Slowly I have reached  Dhaula kuan and I received the call from Vikas, we had the meeting time at 6 AM at sector-62 Noida, but it was 5:45 and I was still at Dhaula Kuwan, therefore he shared one location on whatsapp, then I have navigated to that destination, I have reached at 6:30 to that location of the Noida sector-62, I have observed that nobody was there, they must moved and went ahead from that place, I thought they are waiting to the location…. Then I made a call to Vikash and he shared a new location and I started navigation to that, the new location was 20 kilometers ahead from that place. Finally I met them.

This is the petrol pump of the NH9, we stopped for few min, we were 5 people Vikas, Amit Tiwari, Hemant Bhaiya & Arvind Bhaiya, and we had 3 vehicles, Vikas had his bajaj Avenger 160, Amit has Apache RTR 160 4V and I had Hero Duet Scooty. They were double on their vehicle therefore I have tied their luggage on my scooty. Then we moved from that place and went ahead. I saw a Garh Mukteshwar in the Hapur area, it was the Ganga river and people were taking bath, doing worship… it must be some religious place , I stopped for a few minutes and recorded the video and moved ahead again.

Then we stopped in one restaurant and ate some paratha, we all were hungry, and we all wanted to eat. It is true that we enjoy the taste of the food very well when we are really hungry… we always realize the importance of any kind of stuff.

We missed the kulhar tea here, there was no option here, therefore we decided that we will take kulhar tea ahead somewhere in the way, after few kilometers we reached the “Desi Rasoi” it was somewhere beside of the highway only, we ate something but kulhar tea was missing there as well

It was amazing relaxing here, we finally felt very comfortable and relaxed now, so we were very energetic to hit the destination. Then we started riding towards Nainital, it was almost 71 kilometers from Desi Rasoi. We have started moving in full speed towards Nainital.

After a few hours, we entered an amazing green road, both sides were beautiful forests and super peaceful. I was just observing and feeling the situation & peace.

We have stopped in a maggi point of the mountain road, it was the road side small shop where we all stopped and was trying to relax, I have taken pictures & created few videos including the Instagram reels, seniors took the beer, I also took one sip, I actually denied, because I need to ride, and I do not like to ride after consuming the alcohol. After a few minutes, we started riding towards Nainital.

Finally we crossed many magical destinations. The natural beauties of the places were super amazing. I was riding very slowly, stopping in beautiful places and recording them all.

Finally, I reached Naini lake. It was a super view, saw the clear lake and the tourists surroundings,  everyone was enjoying the environment and enjoying the lake. Most of them from the tourists were the couple, the young couple who must come for their honeymoon or to enjoy quality time with each other. There was a big crowd on the mall road for the shopping. I crossed the crowd and started moving towards the naukuchiatal because we had stayed at that location.

Dear Readers, finally we reached the place known as naukuchiatal, it was almost evening and now we have gone inside the hotel. We all made small snacks and then it was fresh to come outside to view the night of the mountain. It was the super clear moon light, we came to the bank of naukuchiatal, there were many boats , we have been sat on one of the boat, the boat was of the air tube and tied with some iron rode on the bank, therefore there was no chance of going somewhere, we have spend an hours on the boat and discussed the plan of tomorrow, we have viewed the clear sky and tried to keep the moment more memorable. After that we walked on the road and bought cold drinks and soda.

Then we came back to the hotel and enjoyed the dinner. After having the dinner we came again on the road to enjoy the super amazing walk. After that we went to the hotel and slept.

Thanks for reading the blog, please follow the page and share your feedback.

These places are very underrated places, very few people reach these destinations, most of them return from the Nainital, but here you will find the actual peace, and the true life is here only. We the each member of our rider group are the peace lover, and we love the less crowd, and this is the place where we found all these

Planning for a Nainital ride

Dear readers, after a long time, after many difficulties, finally a group ride is planned, and I am very excited about this trip. I am always ready for bike touring, and even my life’s target is ride & write. Writing is the thing which I am doing daily but the ride cannot be planned daily and also it is not possible for me to do the ride on a daily basis. Riding is something which is in my heart and I can not live without it. This is my first group ride which i am going to do with college friends and seniors. We are total 5 person and total three bikes, as a biker i do not have bike and this is a big bad luck of my, i have a scooty of heromotocorp i.e Hero Duet 2017 model, and i have been traveled thousands kilometer in 2 days in scooty. This might be the record as well of the hero company, i do not have any other option as well… right ?

My basanti ( Hero Duet Scooty) is ready now, i went to karol bagh and changed the battery, mounted a pair of fog light and also installed a mobile holder along with the mobile charger, whenever we go for touring the mobile holder & mobile charger is very important for the trip. Because when we use our mobile phone for navigation then the battery drains very fast, therefore we need to keep it charging using the USB cable.

After that I also did the servicing of the scooty and this time i have changed the regular oil of castrol active and replaced it with MOTUL 10W30, because i am going far from NCR, definitely i will have group there but we should always prepared and ready to fight the situation.

We have a plan to leave NCR on 10’th september Saturday at morning, actually i need to travel from Gurgaon to Noida, and rest people are from Noida, we have meetup point at sector-62, Noida. And after that we need to go Naukuchiyatal to Nainital. This is a little long and way via the mountain because there are two ways of reaching Naukuchiyatal, one is via Haldwani and second is via Nainital… the second way we have selected.

I am a little afraid because traveling via a 99CC vehicle in high altitude is a little risky, because we often face the huge power loss in high altitude, but have no option because we have no time to buy the bike as well, therefore we need to execute the plan now, also i have a gut feeling of group… hahaha…. Such guts are highly required… right… !

Anyway, I need to ride slowly at 60 - 70 KMPH, and will try to capture each and every little moments & scenes of the way till the destination.

Someone very well said “सफर हीं खूबसूरत है, मंजिल तो बस एक भ्रम है , सफर का नाम हीं जिंदगी है, मंजिल तो बस मौत है”, therefore we need to enjoy the journey, because this is only the name of life, we all are here only to complete a journey, and it is always in our hand that how we makes our journey beautiful and most beautiful.

Remember guys, our life is in our hands only… making it difficult & complicated or easy & comfortable is always our decision, do not blame anyone for anything in your life… leave it now… i think the discussion went in some other direction… and it starts only after the word “Journey”. 

Everyone is wise and clever in this era, and no one needs the suggestions from others… but this is actually wrong, and we should keep our mind open to listen to others to learn… and always be thankful… 

Wait for the next blog of the journey, thanks for reading this blog till this point…
