Starving Lazy Rider's for the Ride to the Wild


Guy's in the group were planning for the Ride to Kalahatty from 2 months approximately and i was not even confirmed till the end. I get a call from my Friend Pradeep who works in Bhagtola Bandhavgarh resort and says wants me to be part of that ride at any cost. Friday posted in the group that will be riding but on my Monster ended up with my Badadon, as group is all riding with Enfield, so decided to ride Badadon.

Route Plan: Mysore Road- Nanjanagudu - Gundupete- Bandipur- Masinaguddi - Kalhatty- Approx 300 one side

Ride day the 02-07-2016,
Lazy Rider's Team at Start Point Selfie
Meeting point Nice road exit Mysore Road at 6am was decided as usual known fact as the group name says Lazy Rider's all reached by 7:15 am, surprise there was Mr.Vijay Simha's appearance in the start point. He was always called the Congress symbol (No Offense to any Politics party as such) as he used to drop of on all rides at the last moment. Started to ride at 7:30 am after a chai at that point. We had a good turn over of 12 and 10 bikes, it was an awesome count. As usual our group love's the food in Vaishali, which is before Maddur and stopped there for Break fast at around 8:15am.

Vaishali is a Veg and Non-Veg hotel famous for Kheema Dosa, Khal soup etc....yummy food good service...After breakfast took a photograph and left from there around 10 am.

We started to head to the destination reached Columbia Asia at 11:30am stopped on the ring road for some hydration (Tender coconut) was refreshing for all... Regrouped and started to head towards Nanjanagudu roads were pretty good after all the repairs and constructions. Weather was really awesome and windy again stopped for a break near Gundulpete for regrouping.  After all rider's regrouped we rode to the entrance of Bandipur Forest.

Camp for stay
Only 3 bike's made to this point and they are all 3 thunder bird's and 1 Machismo 500.....Me, Dinesh,  Naveen and one friend of Naveen.

We reached this camp at 3pm had lunch and started to head for trekking this was another awesome stuff that we did, we could spot the Bison and few different birds which we could hardly get there photograph's.

We returned to the camp by 6pm, but we all were not satisfied in that location to stay as the rooms were small and cozy and requested him to move us to the lower camp and we moved all the luggage and bike's to the other camp and settled down.

Party time started at 7pm all we are on with music and drink's  which kept all of them live till 12pm...

 Her Soumick was drunk and was loving the taste of the Mango Pickle... his expressions were ultimate when he was tasting the pickle...could not miss it....:)
After Dinner around 10:30pm all started to listen stories from Pradeep who comes to Bangaluru during his vacations when Jungle closes in MP. He is into Wild Life Photography and some real stories of his life was very inspiring and went on till 12pm and were all tired and went to bed.

Morning at 6am looking for room service to have some tea, coffee is usual for all. We had coffee and then we started to pack and get ready for the return journey.....had yummy breakfast and headed from the resort to reach Bangalore....weather was really amazing with some showers through out till Bandipur exit.
 

One the way near Gundulupete we refueled our bike's and headed to Bangalore and the plan is to have lunch at Fish land which was our another favorite hotel on the Mysore road before Srirangapatna. We had a break down on the ring road before reaching Columbia Asia and some how we fixed it temp. to reach Bangaluru so Nag had to ride straight from that spot to Bangaluru and then Satish accompanied him for his support and we reached home at 8pm....

Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 Review

Image
Riderboy's Journey for 2019 starts with Interceptor review after a long break.  After RE announced a motorcycle with a twin engine for the first time, I was very keen to test the machine. I finally got a chance to ride the Interceptor for about 200km. The look and feel of the bike is just amazing. I can describe it as a retro and simple looking machine with clean lines. It draws attention from everyone. As soon as I mounted on the bike, I felt very comfortable. The Interceptor felt like a machine that was created just for me. I started the engine and surprisingly it sounded like a Triumph Bonnie.  I decided to ride the Interceptor to Krishnagiri, which is about 100 kms from Bengaluru. The motorcycle engine felt like a well refined one and it was also very smooth without any vibrations.  This is how happy i was after riding the machine for 100 kms....  We must truly applaud RE’s effort for getting an amazing super bike with unbelievable pricing...

Ride was planned few days before and nothing as such was booked particularly, got the bike serviced and ready for the ride as usual...I don't get sleep the previous night of the ride because of the excitement.  Day 1- Morning 5:30am started the ride and headed towards Taj Vivanta as it was our start point to meet the other Rider's. We started the ride and badly needed a tea to start the day with our ride, so headed towards a coffee day on the hassan road before the hotel Mayura. Had coffee at CCD and we had to stop again for Breakfast at Mayura which was 106kms from Bangalore exact at around 8am we headed to Towards Thirthahalli which was almost 231kms from that hotel. We took a diversion near Chenarayapatna towards Shimoga route, which was an awesome route. This road made me to stop for photography as i have the passion for photography. It was like the roads were layed recently for us to ride. This feel did not make us tired, however we had to stop ...

Ride for Passion and photography

Bangalore- Rameshwaram- Dhanushkodi- Kanyakumari- Munnar- Bangalore One week before the ride planned for a Solo trip as usual being a working class person wanted salary to hit the pockets to even start the trip. In the mean while i had a chat with my friend who was keen to join the ride and that became group ride with two of us, but not big numbers. We initially had discussed the plan to ride on the 2nd June 2016 to 5th June 2016{ Bengaluru- Valparai- Munnar- Thekkady- Periyar and Bengaluru}, all was ok and we decided to take tents and sleeping bags, not to book any accommodations anywhere in advance also. Day 1 {2-06-2016} Starting Point was at Jaguar showroom silk board at 5am and my friend had an hectic day previous day and had reached home late due to rains and was not prepared for the ride. I did give him a wake up call at 3:30am to make sure he reaches the start point on time. He reaches the start point at 7am and then we start our ride filled fuel for our bike...
