Ride in the terrains - Ride in the cold
Pretty hard to start, but once started it has to be done.
Though this was a short ride here is one heck of a plan which failed to take effect, got planned again cancelled and finally 6 Riders join hands to execute it in July 2016-

4 Riders started from Bangalore on 15th 11:00 AM from Mysore road exit, Adrenaline was all pumped up then one of the rider was late (late_latiff) wait almost 40 mins for him to catch up at nice road exit.
Meanwhile all sorts of eyes was on our gear and Abhi46 Yamaha R3, Suddenly a hijra catches the most innocent looking guy in the group tiwaria9034 and demands money out of him LOL scared the shit out of us, this guy pops out 100 bugs and gives it to him I am guessing he did it for good luck though.
Started our journey to Mysore at around 12:00 and reached by 3:00 PM and dumped our luggage in Mysore hotel I must say the hotel - treebo golden castle had amazing room and bathroom was awesome, room services were just about OKAY not great, parking was a huge problem though we had spoken to them in advance but managed to speak to the owner and got it sorted quickly.
Dumped our saddle bags and headed out to St Philomina church which was so crowded with all school kids all around us looking at our bikes by our bikes I mean looking only at R3 (I was pretty jealous) but I was pretty okay with it at the same time no kid would hop on to my bike to have fun, Thinking about kids meddling with our bikes we left that place in a jiffy and headed straight out to KRS Dam had some awesome clicks there and then headed back to the room.
Other 2 riders checked in to the hotel at around 8 PM, had our dinner then enjoyed our bath in the hotel, I must say treebo hotel bathrooms are pretty good and quickly rested next day morning we headed out to Bandipur and reached Ooty at around 12 pm it wasn't raining at all until we dumped our luggage in Hotel haveli athiti bhavan these guys have a good service I should say and also the food was pretty good (Pure Vegetarian Food). So here we were heading out in rain with our rain gear all up, headed out to Lovedale for some good clicks while on our way back we were all drenched and wet heavy rains right on our faces and visors getting all foggy was pretty scary.
July 27th last day headed straight too Pykara falls and left immediately to Bangalore almost 281 Kms, I must say we rode non-stop from Pykara with just 2 breaks in between butts were red and swollen, underwear stuck right to butt cheeks man that was the first time I rode 281 Kms in a stretch and I was almost feeling how hard my butt crack was all because we wanted to reach Bangalore quickly to avoid traffic but that wasn't the case we ended up riding 30-40 Kms and even 10-15 Kms.
At times I feel it is good to reach bangalore some where in midnight just to avoid traffic and idiots on road.
