<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">It’s around 1’o clock on a boring Sunday we decided to go on a short ride.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">It’s Seshu’s suggestion to ride to Pachapalli Dam. I’ve never heard about this place.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">Decided to give it a try and see how does this place and road surprises me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">After 1hour, Seshu has reached my place wearing a “Cap helmet” riding his HIMALAYAN.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">Hahaa…. deadly combination isn’t it..!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>He has lost his helmet somewhere, and realized that while leaving his home.</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: 700; white-space: pre-wrap;">Luckily I’ve bought new helmet recently and finally my SparX helmet(thinking of selling/giving it to someone) gonna reach Seshu’s home.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b> </b></span><b style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Me and Anjana are least bother about checking tourist spots in Kodaikanal.</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>So instead of wasting time by visiting jam packed tourist spots, we’ve decided to ride via forest stretch, rural villages and connect to Bangalore highway.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b> Anjana had the route map from where we can enter the dense ghat section which is less explored. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>While descending from Kodaikanal towards dindigul, took “Pannaikadu - Thandikudi - Pachalur - Oddanchatram” to explore the hidden roads of Kodaikanal western ghat section.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b> Initial 5-6kms ride didn’t give me anything great feeling. But, As we cross villages and move further, we are getting close to nature. Sooner we are inside the dense forest. All I could feel is,ascending and descending of ghats. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Every turn is giving mesmerizing views of nature. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>The chilled air is very refreshing. We have come across hardly any traffic(mostly government buses). </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>As per plan, We suppose to descend the ghats and reach oddanachatram by 11. But due to Anjana’s bike puncture, we got delayed by an hour and reached dindigul- Bangalore highway by 12’o clock. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>The rest of the ride on highway was good. Without any issues, with a sufficient breaks, by 8’o clock in the night we’ve reached the Bangalore.</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>As I mentioned earlier, It’s memorable and refreshing trip.</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>It made me realize that, I can continue my bike trips and my photography passion even with the blurry vision in one eye.</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>So, I've planned to leave Bangalore before sunrise. </b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">As per the plan,I've left my room around 5'o clock and took NICE road(@ electronic city) to reach the other end of NICE road(Neelamangala).</b><br />
<b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></b>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>After reaching place called "Neelamangala", took the road which leads to Kunigal town. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Even though Sun was still below the horizon, I could make out the clouds coloring with "Yellow and Orange colors". </b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">That view was spectacular. In fact, the soothing music which was playing in my earphones has made the view much more beautiful :-).</b><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>It was perfect start of the day. The cool breeze which was touching my knees made me feel the chillness of the weather. </b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>Unlike the other rides, could see less traffic in this stretch. That helped me to ride at decent average speeds. </b></span><b style="font-family: "helvetica neue", arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">By 7'o clock I was in "Kunigal town" and thought of taking a break for early breakfast. </b><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><b>As per plan, our meeting spot was "Hosa road" and with the delay of 15mins all the bikers have reached the meeting spot.</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #b45f06;"><b> </b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #b45f06;"><b> <span style="color: #eeeeee;"> Hampi was there in my to-do travel list since long time. As most of my trip mates likes only God-Made beauties rather than Man-Made beauty, it took me long time to visit Temple-Town. One of my friend Teja from Hyderabad has planned a ride to Hampi from Hyderabad along with his RoyalEnfield mates. He asked me to join for the trip even though it was a RE trip. Initially I was in dilemma, but some how he convinced me to join for the trip. After the trip I came to know that, it doens't matter which bike you riding, its all about Brother-hood... All bikers are under same roof called "Man and Machine". </span></b></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #b45f06;"><b><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #b45f06;"> Day 1:</span></span></b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: #b45f06;"><b><span style="color: black;"> <span style="color: #eeeeee;"> Since I was from Bangalore, so our plan was to meet in Hospet Guest House. As per plan my route map was to reach Hospet via Chitradurga. <br />As I was having enough riding experience on Bangalore-Chitradurga route, I was pretty sure about the time required to reach Chitradurga(~270Kms). So instead of starting early morning, I've started around 11'o clock after finishing breakfast.<br /><br />Reached Blr-Chitradurga-Pune road via "NICE Road". Initially the weather was quite irritating.. add to it, traffic was quite heavy till I cross Tumkur.<br />Since road condition is very good, I was able to reach the "Chitradurga" in less time and stopped for a lunch break. pls remember that, after Chitradurga I have hardly observed hotels, so <br /><br />who ever wants to visit Hampi, pls keep this in mind while planning. After Chitradurga I've taken right turn to reach Hampi. Remainig ride through that road was <br />hectic, as the road condition is average and heavy vehicle traffic is very much. By Evenning 5'o clock I was in "Hospet". Hampi is ~15kms far from Houspet.<br />Bikers(IBR tram) who are coming from hyderabad have reached the guest house around 7'o clock. After having nice home made chicken biryani in the guest house, it was time for sleep.</span></span></b></span></span><br />
