Bad news...from Kashmir

5 days to start our trip and we are attacking from all the resources around that situation in Kashmir is not so good. Two girls were killed by security forces and there is strike all over the places against that (http://www.tribuneindia.com/2009/20090604/main3.htm)

Everything seems to be closed. Hotels, shops and roads...as well what is actually the most important for us! So kind of messy situation which makes us very sad:(
Anyway we decided no to book any hotel after Leh and we will be controlling the situation every day. If nothing change we will be forced to take the same road back via Manali which would be very disappointing for us as the plan was to see Kashmir and Srinagar and add to the trip some touristic flavour:(
Let's see what the following days will bring...and you guys keep the fingers crossed for us!

And we?
Almost ready to go...we still need to arrange some small things. Buy some medicines and last spare parts. Everybody except again me and Tom are in perfect shapes for the trip. Tom had a small accident last Tuesday, braking while taking a turn. Me...I crashed yesterday only - braking while taking a turn because of some random guy who just appeared in front of me...
Beginners mistake... Nothing serious has happened to us apart some scratches and bruises...
what to do? Bikers risk!
For Saturday we will be fresh&funky for sure!
