......so the day was 23 June 2015. We reached Manali on 22
June and we planned our trip the next day to Rohtang. When we came out of
our hotel in the morning drizzling was started and my sister denied to go
because we didn’t have raining coats but I was so excited that I start my birdy
(thunderbird) and said to my sister it will not come again. So somehow she sat
on the backseat. I start my bike and here we started our journey. When we
crossed the Beas Bridge I first saw such a river that has this severe flow and
the water was milky white.
When I was going toward the Rohtang I saw a guy who was
giving me signal first I thought why he was giving hand to me after a moment I
remember my brother told me that when you were passing through the road from
Manali to Rohtang there are some shops where you can buy warm cloths. So after
few shops I stopped my bike and hir dongries and I bought few packets of biscuits. Then I sat on bike while I was riding my bike there were the picturesque that stayed with me throughout the journey.
How could anyone forget this view and especially for those
people who came from plane land. As we were reaching toward the rohtang valley
the size of the drops of the rain become bigger and bigger and it was feeling
like hailstones. We wore our dongri but we were soaked and the breeze was feeling
as I was in the Himalaya. After passing the solang valley cut and moving about
5 km toward the rohtang valley by leh manali highway I took a halt.
After 10 minutes of halt I again put my helmet and wore dongri
back. In the midway I passed through the check post. After that the road was awesome actually the
whole road from manali to rohtang was awesome. If you are a bike lover than you
should go to rohtang by bike. Only at two places road is not good.
After riding 3 hours we reached the Rohtang we were
extremely happy and excited.

When I reached my home I realized that the real happiness is
in the journey not in the destination.
As per my view you should go to rohtang by bike. The bike
will cost you 1200-1500 INR.
And before taking the bike check your breaks , horn, fuel
and air in the tubes and most important if you are two guys insist for 2
helmets.
