🔧 Bike Preparation: Watch how I ready the beast—BMW R1250GS—for high-altitude conditions, tough roads, and remote terrains. This includes a full service, tire check, loading tools, and essentials for wilderness travel.

🩺 High-Altitude Survival Kit: Packing smart with oxygen cans, Diamox, pulse oximeter, hydration packs, and a fully loaded first aid kit to survive thin air in places like Khardung La (17,982 ft) and Pangong Tso.

🔥 Forest Cooking Setup: Carrying minimal, raw forest cooking gear for remote stops—everything from a portable stove to basic spices and cookware.

🗺️ Route Highlights (Coming Soon in Series):
Zanskar Valley & Padum – one of India’s most remote regions.
Gombo Ranjan – a sacred and lesser-known Himalayan peak.
Leh, Khardung La, Pangong, Manali – the iconic spine of Himalayan adventure.

📍 Did You Know?
Zanskar is cut off from the world for almost 6 months due to snow.
Diamox helps the body acclimatize faster to high altitudes by reducing symptoms of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS).

Forest cooking adds to the self-sufficiency element of solo rides, giving deeper connection with nature.

This video is a must-watch for anyone planning a solo motorcycle trip to Ladakh, especially on a big ADV bike like the R1250GS. Subscribe for the full series as I take you through raw Himalayan beauty, solitude, survival, and exploration.
