Descent of Rhotang La

After chilling out at the top of Rhotang La for about an hour and watching the Indian tourists do the donkey rides in the ski suits it was time to get moving again. 

Smooth Tarmac - Looking like a very fast descent!

OK not quite so straight forward.

This digger man refused to let us past until our French friend put his life at risk
by pushing his bike under the moving digger scoop, descent continued.

Finally reached Gramphoo and the Chandra river which looked pretty fierce. Instead
of stopping here we felt pretty good so cycled on to Chartru and an inviting dorm in
a Dhaba and a good feed.of Dahl, Veg and Rice.

All in all a great day on bike - 52km and 800m ascent and descent over Rhotang La.
