The breakfast in my hotel in Delhi is brought to my room as they don't have a breakfast room but it's already an hour late. If I hadn't already paid, I would have left sooner. But at half past ten I'm on the bike anyway and since today is an easy ride it will…

My alarm goes off at 05.15 the next morning and 45 minutes later, after a cold tuk-tuk ride, I'm at the station. Strange, my train number is not on the departure board and inquiries tell me that my train is over 4 hours late! Well then, I got up so early for nothing. It's only a few degrees…

Fog is also predicted for the next cold morning, so I decide not to visit the Taj Mahal early in the morning, but in the afternoon. It's the weekend and extremely busy at the entrance. The building in front of the entrance is already very nice, but when I walk under it and see the Taj Mahal in the…

I am on my way to Menal, a small village with a great attraction. Remains from the 11th century (!) of the Temples of Mahanal, dedicated to goddess Shiva with a huge waterfall next to it, which, unfortunately for me, only thunders down during the rainy season. There is also a hotel next to it that is located at…

It takes me a while to leave Jodhpur because I can't find the right route in the maze of small streets. Fortunately, a motorcyclist I ask for the right route is willing to drive a bit ahead of me and within minutes I'm driving out of town. The roads to…

I planned to drive on toll roads (free for two-wheelers) for most of the 250 km to Jodhpur. That is more boring, but the risk of material damage (due to bad roads or heavy traffic) is a lot less and if I arrive early at the destination I still have…
