On a Wing and a Bicycle

Enduring freezing conditions, NEHA TIKAM clocked 44 hours 27 minutes and dedicated her effort to the Border Roads Organisation

By the time Neha Tikam started the climb to Tanglang La, the highest point (5,328m) on the Manali-Leh highway, she knew things were going to get tricky on the rest of her ride. The rain lower down in Rumtse had made way for sleet and the temperature had dropped significantly as she pedalled uphill in the rarefied environment of Ladakh.
