Map of the trip so far
We now have a map showing Bari, Dinesh and Navroz’s trip from Bangalore to Rishikesh. The route shown is close but not exact- if you’re interested in seeing detailed regional and highway maps, go to Maps of India. Look for the clickable highway maps.
More links in the “Maps/About” Category.
Update: The map shows the ride starting in Bangalore and then heading northwest to Goa which is not correct. Rather, the route was directly west from Bangalore to Mangalore and then up the coast to Goa.

Bari,
Might be a good idea for you to mention National Highway and Road numbers in your posts, now that we can follow along with maps.
It was quite hard figuring out the exact route you guys took, since a lot of places are not shown on smaller maps. This was the best I could do quickly. It would be great to get some maps from you showing the actual routes for the whole trip.
Maybe you could take some pics with your camera of a map with the routes highlighted as best you can, and I could translate it onto a map here.
Hope you had time to smoke a chillum in Manali…

Hi Boys!
As you must have imagined, on the way towards the new and the unknown, there are words, lots of words… on the way back from the seen and the spectacular, sometimes there are no words… just a heavy exhale visible at -6 c.
Bari, you’re doing a wonderful job narrating your journey.
Warmly,
Angela
