It’s been a month since we have not traveled or trekked after the Tso Ropla trek. I was willing to for a short ride and as per our plan we were planning for the Dunga Nagari ride but due to busyness among us this plan has been postponed yet now but we will be executing it soon. For the compensation ride we plan to travel to the new viral destination of Nepal .ie Latrambheswor here we will reach via bike ride and a short hike to reach the destination. I was so excited for the ride because I was in a very depressive mood condition even due to monotonous work I was in much need to have refreshments. Many changes and losses have occurred in these few months but consoling myself that everything happens for a reason. We can’t erase or edit our role which is written in our scripts of life which has to occur in a time as per script. We should just accept it and the performance of life should go on even being harsh to accept and forget it.
I was willing to be part and eagerly waiting for the execution of this ride to have peace and refreshments after tragic incidents that causes disturbance in my mind and soul.
Here goes my experience one day ride and hike to Latrambheswor.
I was excited for this ride and hike due to which I was sleepless for a whole night and just wait for the morning so that I can’t depart for a ride. I was feeling good to visit a new destination which is viral these days. I was unknown about this but my pals were much more information about this destination. At 630am I was picked up by Kabin but we have to return to his home for a raincoat and after getting it moved to Dudhpati where the rest of the pals were waiting for us. I get a call from Binit to be at the tea shop where Sajan and Neema were waiting for a gathering to begin our ride. As we meet them rabi and Priyanka arrived there and soon we had our light breakfast was having fun from the act of Sajan (ahahahahhaa) he was such a foodie that he used to have anything even his mind denied i.e. was enjoying the moments where I can see cheerfulness in everyone faces that makes me so good to be a part of this journey. Rashid was briefing us about the ride but we were in dilemma whether to follow the direction of the YouTube video or Google Maps. With votes of all of us, we decide to follow the google map means we were traveling Dakschinnkali road instead of the best and correct way i.e Chapagaun-Tikahabharab highway (one should travel this route for a better and time-saving ride).I was enjoying each moment due to the pleasant morning weather and good interaction with pals. I was sharing a ride with Kabin as we have had good bonding since we met in class 5 and till now we have a good sense of friendship I have seen his liabilities towards friendship during my depressive situations which occur in these months and days. I was feeling safe sharing a ride with him. As we begin our ride he begins his ragging in his own style in multiple languages. I was requesting him to stop it but he did not instead he speed up the speed along with raging which gave him full-on entertainment. We were following the rest of the pals and we were riding until and unless we reach Kausaltar where Sarju and Rakshya were waiting for us. Meeting him I just grabbed the helmet thinking that he has brought it from me. My excitement diminish when he told me that he forget to bring a helmet and this belongs to Raksha. I was embarrassed that I didn’t follow the rules that were strictly made by myself but even with a helmet, we resume our destinations. We were 10 members and it was for the first time we were traveling in a monsoon season before that we only used to travel in spring or winter season.Kabin was feeling sorry that he even forget to bring a helmet but he didn’t stop to entertain and ragged me. We move straight instead of taking the Chapagaun route where we took left from Ekantakuna to reach the big mart near Medciti hospital to buy snacks for us which we will have at our destination. We took our first-ever pictures of this ride and we were enjoying our moments with fun and ragging up going on with each other. I was feeling good to view happy and cheerfulness of my pals. Spending for 20 minutes we resume our ride, we were moving toward the west direction but I was unaware that we will reach Jalbianayak and then the Dakchinkali route which was as per our ride plan to travel via this route. I was aware of the route and even reminds me of the accidents that occurred in Kulekhani (due to the incidents I was missing the helmet) when we were returning from Hetauda which was our first ever ride after completing of master's classes. We were traveling via the Dakshinkali route and I was feeling that confusion among us was heating up about whether we were on the right or wrong route but as per Google Maps we were on the right track. At one point we stuck to exploring the google map and I was sure that if we move west we will reach Kulekhani so we get back and resumed the ride via the Dakshinkali kali route. We took left track from the Dakshinkali temple periphery where I felt that we were moving to another world. The road was dusty and tipper was frequently passing through us. We begin to get hyper for losing the right track to reach Thinggan but as per Google Maps, we were on the right track though we were on wrong track. We interact with the local owner of the crusher for showing us the right track, he request us to ride via another way to reach Tikabhairab and warned us that if we move ahead with what we were planning to go then we will reach Hetuada instead of Chapagaun. We get back to follow the routes shown by locals. We were getting irritating about not being able to find the right track. I was enjoying the dusty road and hyper conditions that made worrying about other pals. I was enjoying the ride because I haven’t visited this route before and the environment was so chilling that giving me peace in my mind to be in another world of Kathmandu valley. The sky was so clear and a plane flying over was so close that I can identify the airline name which I was informed to Aashib to view. Rabi and Sajan move ahead in search of a route, where we rest of the pals were waiting for them ragging each other. Rabi called us to get where they were, as we get there we found other riders even struggling for the right track thank god that we don’t have to move the head in search of the way as they confirm that right ahead there was a landslide so they suggest we to move to ahead via a suspension bridge to reach Tikabharab.
Without wasting time we cross the bridge before that we interact with the local about the right track and as per his directions we move ahead but not again we the took the right route but luckily we found the local we request him to show us the right track he escorts to the point where we might get confused to identify the right and as we saw the widen road confirmed that might me the Tika Bhairab so speed up the speed to reach there. As we were on the right track every cheered with joy. I was clicking the video for memory we were feeling relaxed to be at the right route after 3 hours of wander. being lost. As we reached Tika Bhairab we just had a very huge laugh, I found everyone had a clean face whereas my face was full of dust. Everyone had a very good laugh over me viewing my dusty critical conditions after riding from the dusty road of Burunchuli. While we were having side by side, we checked our bikes and bike servicing to avoid problems during whole day travel. Soon after the bike was checked we resume our ride. I felt so surprised to travel on such a wide pitch road which I haven’t expected in these remote areas. As we were traveling I got much more information regarding this highway. I was sharing my research about this highway with Kabin it is one of the oldest highways in Nepal which begins its construction in 1954(98 km long which connects Lalitpur with Hedtauda) by king Mahendra and was named after his mother Kanti RLDS. I saw the welcome board of Konjoyosam rural municipality one of the most remote areas of Kathmandu valley and often we called it Karnali of Kathmandu valley due to its remoteness and another unavailability of required infrastructures. Kabin objected by briefing because he saw electricity wire on the road I inform him that the core area doesn't cover the road or electricity. He was not satisfied with my bridging and to console him I requested him to view the topography and height of the road where it was constructed he was just surprised to view the high hills and road which has been constructed by exploiting the hills which he has not noticed before. Suddenly he stopped his bike because the perfect road turned into a muddy and narrow path with dangerous downhills he inspect the hills where and how the road was constructed. He was feeling oh my god and accept that yeah it can be said as Karnali he was feeling scared of road conditions but as per my research, I was confirmed that this road reached Hetadua via Makwanpur Gadhi. I was informed that the road might be in good condition where the hills were rock form and might be muddy and narrow where the hills were in soil form. I spoke to him about the slogan which was relatable to my life i.e "Difficult roads often lead to good beautiful destinations".I was informing him that landslides frequently occur on this highway due to topography and other natural cause and I knew this from the articles which I had read in the newspaper. After a wide pitch suddenly the road turn to a muddy and narrow path die t which it was making difficult to ride and control the bike I was supporting him to ride with alertness because I saw the rocks were falling down which he has not noticed. I was informed that this road end point is Hetauda which will be passed via Makwanpur Gadhi. He was so surprised to hear it. He was feeling good to know the new route and information which he was unknown of it. I found he was satisfied with my briefing because he was really enjoying the ride. I was even feeling at peace to travel for the first time and knew that better roads and worst roads are part of life as well as travel which we have to pass through it to reach our destination. I was much motivated with this highway because at the point the way was so good that suddenly our speed rose up whereas at one point the road conditions were worst then automatically we slow down our speed to keep control to move on. I was comparing the road conditions with my life, we should keep on moving even if the living conditions were good or worst as same like that life or vehicles had to maintain speed as per the conditions of road or life. We should not stop life or vehicle movement which should go on to reach the destination. I was enjoying the ride recalling the moments we had before we were on wrong track and after on right track(on the wrong track we were in stress and whereas we were in peace to travel from the track). The highway was so good that everyone was enjoying the ride. Sajan shows me the place name called Kyalche which reminds us Tso Rolpa trek. At one point while we were descending Aashib lost his control so he fell off due to an imbalance road. Hurriedly Sajan move at him to get the stand and I even move at him whether to know he was fine or not. He shook his head which mean that he is fine and then we resue our ride until we reach Baguwa for our lunch. We reached Baguwa at 1130 am we were a the border of Lalitpur and Makwanpur which divides buy Bagamati river and joins by the Bagmati bridges. We stooped our bikes and begins our photoshoot. I took the first pictures of this ride. Before that everyone was laughing at me due to dusty faces which makes me unidentified for my pals who were having good laughs. I hurriedly clean my face to have my photoshoot and then stay quiet for a few minutes to enjoy nature. Aashib called us to have lunch listening to his call we moved to the dining table.
Everyone was so feeling excited to have because we were late as per our plan and even we were in extreme hunger. We had a very nice lunch which was beyond our expectations and we just enjoy the lunchtime with full-on happiness. After lunch rabi requested everyone to carry the bottle of water for a hike while we were filling the water suddenly riper caught fire this was my first experience viewing vehicles caught by fire the environment smells and covers with smoke which was making unusual to us. After packing everything we resume our ride before that we took our first group pictures for memory. We begins our ride for Thinggan which was 18 km from Baguwa. The road conditions were the same as before but not again Kabin begins to rag me and I was not responding to him because I was feeling serve pain in my mind due to the smoke of burnt tires of the tipper. I was requested to stop it to ride with peace but he was ignoring me instead he was making me rag than before until we reach Thingann. We were at a point where we should take the right form tha place named called Chapro to reach Lt.The road was off-road which making difficult for a rider to have control over the bike we have to travel around 30 minutes to reach the starting point of LT. At 1215 pm we reach the beginning point of LT we were shocked to view the hundreds of the bike which has been a park I thought we might be the only hikers to be hiking over there but I was wrong that I can view the other hikers were ascending the hill to reach the destination. We park our bikes and then get ready to hike we were unknown at the beginning point so we get returned to the place to interact with locals who told us to walk from the narrow alley of from maize farm. After getting we resume our hike at 1230 pm but the way was so narrow and uneven that we had to walk supporting each other to ascend the uphill alleys.
Nature was playing hide-seek with us weather changed frequently and as expected rain begins which creates difficulties for us but we didn’t care about the rain we kept on moving to save the time. At one point we meet other hikers who were resting and they seem exhausted from the hike. We were so late and we even walked so slowly that they informed us to walk fast so that we can reach the destination within time because we had to retuned back too. They even informed us that we might hunt by leeches as I heard the leeches I felt that I might be caught by a leech. We resume our hike with full fun enjoyment and raggings.I played my all-time favorite song ‘ Telusa Telusa’ and walked enjoying the song. I usually listen to this song in order to motivate myself that life is beautiful if we found peace in whatever we have that creates happiness. Walking for 30, minutes light rain turned to medium rain due to which we had to wear our raincoats. Everyone wears their raincoat which protects them from rain but I was walking without a raincoat which makes me wet but I was enjoying the rain listening to the songs which gained peace to my mind. Rain was getting heavy than before but we were keep on moving to save time. After minutes of rain, the rain goes down and down which creates a foggy environment that added peace to my mind and soul. I was walking ahead of other pals when I found Aashib was waiting for us to have a rest. I was feeling so peaceful to have foggy and cool and lightly windy weather which was ging me peace and relaxation. I was wishing to stay to enjoy nature but we had to move on to reach the temple. I had moved on even though I was not willing to move ahead and before moving I snapped the video of the weather for memory then I joined with pals.
But not again rain begins to rain as like before so we walk in a line so that we might mislead the way. Hikers were descending where we were ascending to our destination interacting with hikers about the way and view from the temple. We were walking with hikers from Hetauda who were enjoying their moments which created fun for us. The weather was changing frequently but we were keep on moving to reach our destination as far as possible. We heard the bell ring of the temple which makes us excited to reach the temple. I was alone and recalling the trek of Gosainkunda that I trek over there in 2011 because the way and environment were similar to the Gosainkunda trek route which makes me feel that I am trekking over there again. We reach the stairs which remind me of the stairs of Kalinchowk temple as it was built on a narrow path as like Kalinchowk with lengthy stairs from whwre one can see high hills and downhills. I was holding the bar of stairs to get down which making me scared. Other hikers were shooting videos from drones which makes us good to view the drone and its sound.Aashib was calling from the other side of the hills but I was not able to identify him due to the crowd of hikers over there. Hikers were shooting videos from drones which makes hikers too chant "shiva hail shiva".I was ascending uphills to reach our destination where most of my pals were there so I was walking hurriedly to be there. I was so tired that as reaching up there I just lay down and begins to listen to recover and enjoy the moments. At 250 pm we reach the destination which was crowded and the carrying capacity of the destination was out of capacity due to which hikers were getting down as soon they were ready after destination. I was feeling uneasy in my shoes as I put off my shoes I found that I was caught by Leech and my legs were full of blood which makes me disgusting and bad. The rest of the pals were chilling and enjoying our snacks but I wasn’t willing to have it due to the scarcity of water, where I found pals were enjoying their snacks with fun. I was viewing nature suddenly I saw an NAC airplane was passing and getting lost in the cloud this motivate me that we should keep on moving even weather don’t favor us because difficult road often leads o beautiful destination. I was chanting this slogan from the Tikabhairab because the path was the same as this slogan. I was so motivated by this Tikabharwab highway which can be compared to our life whether the road conditions are good or bad we should keep on moving for a better future and life.Aashib asked for a guitar from other hikers which makes the entire environment full of music and peace. The weather was getting clear than before so we decided to descend from the temple to get returned back home. We took our second group pictures before we get down. Eveyone was snapping their pictures for memories. Sajan was trying to make me happy because I was staying away from the group and as like in other treks he snapped pictures with me because he loves my fake smile and act.Aashib called me out to have pictures and I request Priyanka to snapped pc with Aashib because we were wearing the same dress code and she was so soured to view the same dress code. With lots of memory and pictures, we begin to descend and spend 30 minutes over there at 350 pm we descend from there in a line. We were raging at each other which was creating fun and so we decided to click our last group snapped at the stairs for last memories of Latrambheswor and we request one of the other hikers to snap our pictures. After clicking pictures, I move ahead where I meet one of the old junior lads of mount valley he was feeling good to meet as we were interacting with him in a good manner. Then suddenly I don't know what goes on with me I just felt an unconscious mind due to which I was walking alone getting away from pals. I was walking and listening to the songs getting lost in nature with music. I was trying not to recall the tragedy but the pain was hitting my mind due to which I was having an unconscious mind where my body was present but my mind was absent. I forget that I was with my friends and I was asking myself where I am and what I am doing over here. At one point I was standing viewing the view of hills and highway. I heard the tune of Telusa Telusa in the Newari version (Kera Kera cha gana –where are you my friends) hearing this tune I just get back to my previous memory I think I have regained my memory that my pals were behind me. I replied to him in the same tune (Ji thana Ji thana ma thaa kow waa-I am here please get down soon). Oh shit, I was standing at the endpoint of hills where I got conscious only after his voice tune . I do not know what's going on with me, I just feel unpeace in my mind which makes me timely unconscious frequently which is not good for me at this moment. I decide to walk along with my friend,
