Next Chapter: New Delhi

Through Chandni’s blog here, came across this NGO called Pragya. It sounds quite interesting. Their USP is they operate in the Himalayas exclusively over 8,000 feet!! Isn’t that something?

It says the organization was started by two management graduates who were riding across the Himalayas from Itanagar to Leh in 1990. Moved by the deprivation of the indegenous communities in the higher reaches, they formed this organization and have been working for the cause ever since. Its interesting what they wrote.

Day 36 New Delhi

Well I figured out a way to chill out one more day. Am sleeping blissfully completely unaware of anything. Tomorrow I must ride.

Day 4 Ajmer to Delhi

After a nice night service by the people at the small, dingy hotel manned by very nice people, I left at around 10 am. There was a Maulvi saab to take me to the Dargah of Khwaja Salim Chisti (I hope I got the name right) but I said I will do it when I come back. Partly because I wanted to leave fast and partly because I wanted to leave it as a reason to come back to the town. I think I will love the town.

Reached Delhi

Been four days. Have seen the whole thing from close quarters now. Its a different feeling. Very sobering feeling. Keeping oneself inspired for hours on end. Singing songs to oneself. Making it a point to not miss any checkpoint / exit. Worst of all, not exceeding a particular speed even when the entire bloody highway is wide open.
