That is a really nice bike. Full time wheelie machine - as some people like to call it. I have not driven one as yet but have heard great reviews.

Day 2 - Karimabad (Hunza). Was drizzling when i started off. Fairly cold too - considering it was in Islamabad's mid 30 temps the day before.

Ready for some loud music in the tunnel

The tunnels do not have lights or reflectors. The ventilation system hasn't been turned on either.

But it was fun to do some spirited runs in the tunnels. Looouuuvvveeeedd it!

Attabad Lake. Such a serene place. a boat ride seemed very tempting... but i was on a clock. had to reach Bunji by evening.

Approaching Sost

Checkpost 50 km short of Khunjerab Border

There was an entry fee (Rs. 100) and after another 50 meters there was a security checkpoint where one has to record CNIC details.

The autumn colurs were very prominent in Khunjerab National Park. Hunza was yet to welcome autumn. I think late October is the best time to visit Hunza .. when autumn is in its full glory there.
