A visit to Dhuri.

We went to Dhuri on the motorcycle.It was quite cold.From Raikot we
took the route through the villages.First we went to Jholan.Then to
Lohgarh.From Lohgarh to the village Chappa.From Chappa we went to
Mithewal.Mithewal could have been bypassed but we were advised that
there was some road repair of the sort being carried out on the
shorter way.From Mithewal we went to Manal.From Manal there is a
highway type road to Dhuri.I guess Dhuri bridge is 23 kilometers from
Manal.Several villages were there on the roadsides.The road was quite
fine.Dhuri is roughly 70 kilometers from Jagraon.We must have
travelled around 75 kilometers.There are some benifits of traveling
through the countryside.Firstly a person can enjoy the beauty of
country side.Secondly a person can avoid major accidents for which the
main roads of Punab are notorious.While coming back I was alone on the
motorcycle and took the same route.
