Today I drive the same distance as yesterday, but I still spend 2 hours longer on the bike and that's because today half of the route is not a highway. The speed on good country roads does not exceed 70 km/h. And then I catch up with everyone. It is that I am on…

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…

The sacred cows and the stray dogs are already waiting at the houses for the sacrificial meal that will be served to them. I'm on my way to the ATM because today my credit card is blocked. It was hacked a few days ago after which…

I'm completely fit again! Thanks in part to the good care of Rajesh and Shella from Tourist Guesthouse. I have lacked for nothing and I enjoy staying at their Tourist Pension. From the moment I arrived I didn't see much of the city or the surrounding area so over the next few days I…

The more I drive south, to the province of Rajasthan, the more the landscape changes. It is a very dry province, almost desert, but very fertile because there is a lot of water available for irrigation. A disadvantage is that it is also getting dustier. I also think it is noticeable in the engine…

I find it difficult to determine which city will be my next destination because I have no idea how many kilometers I can cover in one day in India. There are places in India that I definitely want to see, but they are all several days away. When I talk to the owner in the evening…
