Solo ride, Delhi NCR → Srinagar → Leh → Zanskar → Manali | Yamaha R15M | 10 days

Itinerary

• Oct 3: Greater Noida → Jammu. I left just after midnight and rode the plains stretch overnight, then rested on arrival.
• Oct 4: Jammu → Srinagar. I left early and kept to daylight only on the Ramban-Banihal stretch because of the single-lane construction and landslide risk.
• Oct 5: Rest day in Srinagar.
• Oct 6: Srinagar → Kargil via Sonamarg, Zoji La and Drass. I left at 6 AM to beat the one-way traffic windows at Zoji La.
• Oct 7: Kargil → Leh via Namika La and Fotu La.
• Oct 8: Acclimatization day in Leh with easy local rides only.
• Oct 9: I tried for Pangong Tso via Chang La, but snow started and a checkpoint told me to turn back. I spent the day in Leh instead.
• Oct 10: Leh → Padum (Zanskar) via the Nimmu-Padum-Darcha road, with an overnight in Padum.
• Oct 11: Padum → Shinku La → Darcha → Jispa → Manali. I hit heavy snow after crossing Shinku La and it continued all the way down to Jispa.
• Oct 12: Manali → home in one go.

Notes

• I went up via Srinagar because the altitude gain is more gradual than on the Manali side.
• I applied for the Ladakh EDF permit online for Pangong, but the snow meant I never used it.
• I followed the 48-hour acclimatization advice before heading to high altitude.
• Mid-October snow can close Chang La and make Shinku La very difficult. It’s worth building in buffer days if you’re planning a similar route.

A piece of history in its full glory.

Hello everyone!

I’m looking to learn about stocks and investing from the ground up, with little to no prior knowledge. My goal is to build a strong foundation, develop independent analytical skills, and eventually make informed, long-term investment decisions.

I’d love to hear your recommendations for a practical 6–12 month learning roadmap, including what to learn first, beginner-friendly books and YouTube channels, free courses, useful websites, and hands-on exercises.

If you were starting from zero today, how would you approach the learning process? What would you prioritise, how much time would you dedicate daily, and what mistakes would you avoid?

I’m particularly interested in firsthand experiences, genuine human recommendations, and lessons learned through practice rather than generic or AI-generated advice. Recommendations based on what genuinely helped you learn would mean a lot.

Thank you! I’d really appreciate any guidance from those who have been through this journey.
