There are many seasoned rider here and then there are riders. Seasoned rider are those who have been there and done that and finally… More have surpassed it. Where have they been and what have they done and what did they surpass is a common question which would come in everyone’s mind.

Ganga has her origin in Gangotri Glacier (Gomukh at Garhwal Himalayas. Uttarakhand). The Ganges flows more than 2704 kilometers (1,680 miles). For nearly a billion Hindus in India and beyond, Ganga is more than… More a river. It is the extension of the divine - Lord Shiva. Being the most sacred river to the Hindus, Ganga is also a lifeline to millions of Indians who live along its course. 15km from the source through Bhojbasa is Gangotri, and further descends through Harsil, Uttarkashi, Surendranagar, Devprayag, Rishikesh, Haridwar, Kanpur, Allahabad, Varanasi (aka Kasi and Banaras ), Patna, Bhagalpur and flows into Bay of Bengal. Ganga takes her name from the confluence of two of its main tributaries, Alaknanda and Bhagirathi at Devprayag. Thus Ganga is named as Padma in Bangladesh. For Indians it is most commonly known as Ma Ganga - Mother Ganga. Ganga Aarti is performed during dawn and dusk in major religious sites like Gangotri, Rishikesh, Haridwar and Varanasi. For Westerners, it is the Ganges.
