Default Fourteen days in hand and where to ride?

Most things are unplanned for me & at this very moment I still don't know if there're any last moment susprises awaiting to cancel my trip plans. But if I don't stay back, next 14 days are dedicated to open roads. Here's what I've in mind...

Aug 27 – Day 1 - Chennai to Kolhapur/Pune (970/1200 Kms approx)
Aug 28 – Day 2 – Pune/Kolhapur to Mumbai (via Pune if Kholapur) (400 Kms approx)
Aug 29 – Day 3 - Rest/Buffer at Mumbai
Aug 30 – Day 4 - Mumbai to Udaipur (760 Kms Approx)
Aug 31 – Day 5 - Udaipur to Delhi (660 Kms approx)
Sep 01 – Day 6 - Rest/Bike service at Delhi
Aug 02 – Day 7 - Rest/Bike service at Delhi
Sep 03 – Day 8 - Delhi – Varanasi (800 Kms Approx)
Sep 04 – Day 9 - Varanasi – Kolkatta (700 Kms Approx)
Sep 05 – Day 10 - Rest/Buffer at Kolkatta
Sep 06 – Day 11 - Kolkatta – Bhubaneswar (500 Kms Approx)
Sep 07 – Day 12 - Rest/Buffer at Bhubaneswar
Sep 08 – Day 13 - Bhubaneswar – Vizag (500 Kms Approx)
Sep 09 – Day 14 - Vizag – Chennai (Approx 820 Kms)
Buffer in hand is one day to make up in-case of delays held up in the journey

Would like to take an opportunity to visit everyone in their respective cities or enroute I pass & affix the face behind those handles that we see here everyday.

Last but not the least, if I've to put off the ride, then, pls join along with me to swear my bosses!!!

Sounds good Praful; but, I'm not prepared, besides I don't have a company at the last moment now for 2 weeks

Are you not mentally prepared? Or is your bike not prepared to take the beating?

Other stuff don't take much time to get prepared!

Hey Aargee!
One suggestion.. take udaipur-jaipur-agra-kanpur-allahbad-varanasi route, fantastic roads plus it will save you at least one day. Trust me Delhi-Varanasi is a bad stretch and not possible to cover in a day.

Sure, I trust you

You mean...
Aug 31 – Day 5 - Udaipur-Jaipur-Agra-Delhi (700 Kms)
Sep 03 - Day 8 - Delhi - Agra - Kanpur - Allahabad - Varanasi - This one probably, I can break at Allahabad & then take Allahabad - Kolkatta instead of Varanasi Kolkatta - What say?
