Last summer we cycled the Leh-Manali highway in Northern India and since I’ve heard that a number of wereldfietsers are planning on bicycling there this summer, I thought I would point out that we posted some information on the route here: http://travellingtwo.com/himalayan-bike ... -to-manili.
Below are some pictures from the journey and if you have a chance and don’t mind gasping / wheezing for breath (due to the high altitude) – it’s a great place to bike.

Shey palace, Leh

Statue in Thiksey monastery.

Heading towards the Gata loops

Wild camping

Cycling over the Baralacha La pass.
