Milind is a Naval Veteran and a practicing Marine Consultant, Shriram is a Professional Photographer. They are a team of avid photographers! They say that before you embark on any new venture (in our case adventure) always find your WHY. The HOW will find itself. Let's talk numbers! Days: Leg 1 - Mumbai Goa – completed Leg 2 - Goa – Kanyakumari 18 days, Leg 3 - Kanyakumari – Kolkata 42 days, Leg 4 - Lakhpat – Mumbai 48 days, Total 101 days for the three remaining legs done in a single go. Though this is a provisional plan, they may add in a few days to do local sightseeing closer to the commencement date. Distance : They will be traversing a total of 6,179.4 kilometers in the remaining three legs. For all four legs combined it would be 6849.4 kilometers. The cumulative ascent of the next three legs will be a whopping 29,368 meters. (Equal to Climbing the Mt. Everest 3 times!) and of all four legs combined it would be 37,446 meters How to become Self-sustaining? Well, they do not stay in motels, we do not eat in restaurants. Exceptions being the days when they need to reorganize, maintain vehicles, and mandatory rest. They would try to limit it to the least. Yet, the hotel/ motel stays would be approximately once in ten days. These could also be during extended stopovers for maintenance and replenishment. (End or midway as the need arises). So where do we Stay? Not staying in hotels/motels means we would camp each night and wrap up in the morning, leaving no trace behind. (How exciting would that be!?) Most of team pedalbums riders also are high altitude trekkers, so they are not averse to staying in tents. what are they looking forwards to?
