Heheh. I guess bike usually refers to the motorized version on this board, but it can be ambiguous yes, it would be most handy if people could specify this.
Mantru, I'm sure tips will be streaming in here, but meanwhile you could also look out for this guidebook, I've never used the series but hear only good reports about it: http://www.outlooktraveller.com/bookdetail.aspx?id=5 . Their whole site as well as their magazine (available online) is pretty interesting and features plenty of inspiring articles & unsuspected tips.

You can try Alwar, Agra, Mathura/Vrindavan.
Closer home can head to Dam Dam lake, Karnal lake, Sohna. |

Yeah..Dam Dam lake is very not far...and for Alwar just try and use Wikitravel, and you will have all the info.
Its 150-160 Odd Km from Delhi. Go on NH8 and take a left turn from Neemrana, you will find many signages. Otherwise leave the NH8 in Bhiwadi and go in the city and you go from internal roads as well, which are in good shape and I find them better to drive on than NH8, because there are less trucks and overall traffic. |
