Purvesh – due to whom I went on the trip and his ever caring nature
Saurabh – who arranged for all the loading of the bikes and the booking was smooth with his contacts in the railways and sacrificing his holidays for us to ensure a smooth journey for us, thanks Sau
The doctor at Pang – who saved my life literally from AMS and made me stronger to go on to conquer life
Subhash – The mechanic in Ambala who repaired the broken bikes with great logic and sense and showed humility.

The army and crpf personnel – for giving us a sense of security in trouble prone areas and constantly making us realize that we need to be safe.
The BRO (border roads organization) – who made the roads motorable inspite of facing all the difficulties of bad weather, no oxygen at places and I salute their fighting spirit.
The mountain passes – for guarding my country and making it a more beautiful place to live in and reminding man of how small he is against them.
The people – for their reassuring smiles and julays (hello in ladakhi) and their ever increasing hospitality wherever we went and curiosity in us bikers.
