DAY 1: In spite of the busy schedule of 15th August Ride, some of us has planned to extend this ride towards Nainital Hills. We started late at 1 pm from the REBS Lucknow, and took our first halt at Sidhauli for Tea Break. Soon we started our ride towards Khatima via Lakhimpur Khiri. But as we were on the lakhimpur khiri road the heavy rain started. We took shelter and covered our bags with polythenes. After half an hour break we again started the ride. And all the way from Gola to Puranpur we had to ride in heavy rain, so finally in Puranpur we decided to take night halt as we were fully drenched.

DAY 2: After a good night sleep we all were ready to explore the Pilibhit Jungle road which runs along the Sharda Canal. The off-road experience was awesome and riders enjoyed the jungle ride. Then we crossed a place called CHOR-Gallia another good road to ride. We halted for an hour in the Kathgodam RE Service centre, as two of our bikes needed minor repairing. Finally we reached Mukteshwar in the evening. Along the Mukteshwar hills we enjoyed the beautiful sun set. And finally we took The night halt at KMVN Mukteshwar TRH.

DAY 3: Early morning all the rider decided to do a short trek to visit the Mukteshwar Mandir situated at the top of the Hill. From the temple ground you can view the snow capped mountains and the valley. 





After a heavy breakfast in the guest house as we were getting ready for our next destination Nainital, heavy rain welcomed us once again. So waited for a while and finally at noon we marched towards Nainital. 

We reached Nainital on time before the sunset and unpacked quickly to enjoy the famous boating in Naini Jheel. 

But once again we were welcomed by rain but we did the boating with stretched polythene & Umbrella on our heads. Afterward we did some shopping in the Mallital market and returned back enjoying the rush of tourist & localities in Tallital Market.

DAY 4: We started our return ride at 10:00 am and finally reached our home by 11:00 pm. The reason for the delay was primarily due to the worst roads in Baheri-Barielly road and also due to the heavy traffic encountered bareilly sahahjanpur road.
