Hello Guyz... Am back with another small ride. It had been quite some days after my Leh Ride, I did Mumbai-Goa-Mumbai to ride to relieve myself. But again my inner rider soul was popping up so to satisfy it, I did a Small Solo ride to Bhandardara. A solo ride was pending from quite a while. Riding solo is a totally different pleasure of being close to nature. You are as free as a bird flying without any rules, without any worries. This ride was not at all decided. I had taken leaves to take a break from the hectic work schedule. It was Tuesday (04 Oct, 2009) night & I was still thinking about the ride next day. At 2AM in night I was searching for some nearby destinations around. Finaly narrowed down on Bhandardara.
I was expected to wake up by 5.30am & leave for ride early morning to enjoy the morning bliss. But my lazy soul only could wake up at 11AM.. Damn late now, isnt it..!! I was confused thinking if I should go for this ride or not & if I will be back home early. Finally the biking side of my soul won the argument & I decided to go for this ride. Got full geared up & left home by 12PM in afternoon.
While riding, didnt clicked much pix. Just few are here to witness my ride.
A tea break just before Kasara Ghat to start..
On the route
I went almost 30kms ahead of a turn which I was suppose to take & reached trimbakeshwar. From here I rode back to the turn I missed
The lovely Bhandardara, awaiting..!!
A truck tumbled... No I havent done it.. :)
