Have the safest and yet nerve-wracking road trip this season!

Are you planning a road trip with your friends lately? Well, when you are traveling with a conducted tour company or a travel agent, you are bound within a space and your movement is restricted to some point as someone else has made plans for you, but when you are touring on your own and that too a road trip, you need to plan properly and keep some extra stuff and of course a plan B. Here are some necessities that you may require when you are on Indian roads.

Choose the ride properly

Choosing your ride is the first thing you should go for. India is a country where lots of varieties in several terrains are seen. So if you plan to take your scooty in a road trip to Himalayas, that’s an absurd thing. Sometimes we have a particular bike or a car and we can’t afford more than that. For such instances, you need to choose the destination according to the car you drive.

Know the weather

If you are taking your spouse along with you, or you are riding a bike, then you need to make sure that the weather conditions are in your favour. As the terrain changes from place to place so does the weather. You cannot expect same temperature in the Kashmir and the Kanyakumari! So be prepared for that. Plan your trip according to the weather conditions. If you really need to travel in adverse weather conditions, then do not forget to keep protective necessities along with you.

Shift your bike first  

When it comes to adventure road trips in India, people first think of Leh Manali highway. Bikers have a dream to ride on this road for so long. But the weather conditions are not always in our favour. So you can transport your bike via train and then you can start riding from Jammu. This is a basic thing that most of the bikers do. There are lots of such instances happen when a biker from South India cannot travel all the way to Jammu with his bike and hence transporting bike through train is a popular thing among bikers.

Calculate the trip duration  

Plan your trip properly. You can also go for adventure tour packages in India. But if you have planned to ride all along, you need to think of the time you have in your hand. When you are on roads, anything can happen. You need to make sure that you have enough time to complete the road trip and come back to your vicinity. A proper planning would help you in that.

Carry your friends along 

When you are riding a bike, sometimes the boredom kills the most. Lots of bikers make trips alone, but after a certain point when the trip continues for more than 3-4 days, a certain type of boredom is unavoidable. So it is always good to have a companion along with you. Doing fun, making fun of each other and chatting through the trip are some of the essential things that you may do throughout your trip to make it a trip worth remembering.

Essentials

Keep all the essentials like; papers of your bike, GPS system, medicine box, torchlight, proper shoes, puncture kit for bike, all the helpline numbers, pain relief sprays, icebox etc. These are some of the most important things that you must carry while riding to your dream destination.
