Day 1 My home to Alibaug
Started our journey at 9am...The weather was pleasant..I stay at saphale which is near Palghar...
We reached NH8 which is Mumbai Ahembadad highway..Road upto this is very horrible.. Continuing on NH8 we reached Panvel city traffic...It was heavily raining continuisly.. and have to stop for the tea several times... After going through this traffic we reached Pen and finally Vadkhal Naka... There is Karnala Bird Sanctuary..wow..Nice place to take a halt!(entry fee..Rs 50) We had a lunch and left for the alibaug... Karnala Bird Sanctuary   Alibaug is just 30 kms from Vadkhal Naka...If you go straight its a NH17 and a right turn is for alibaug via poinad... At alibaug there are many hotels near beach...but we found a cheap one near beach...just a 500 for a day.. Alibaug beach    This pic is clicked by Nokia N79...!!  KIHIM BEACH  Alibaug Fort...  Visited alibaug and Kihim beach...if you want to visit Rewas beach its 20 kms from alibaug...but dont go on weekdays... Hotel FULORA is a great place to eat Nonveg.... We went on beach at night..it was awesome... After coming to the hotel we decided to go goa!! it is 540 kms from alibuag..

Sounds like a great ride, please give me directions from Amboli to the NH4, I always seem to get lost! mostly because I can't read the road signs, I also don't speak Hindi or Marathi so that doesn't help, will be heading that way to Bombay in a couple of weeks, I usually go via Belgaum, but that adds an extra 60km and another toll, plus the extra time.

The only Riding Gear we had was Helmet!  My friend Deepak...   It was all GREEN!!  It was raining heavily inbetween but thats what we wanted!!! Riding in rain!! WE took halt at KHED for a lunch! very cheap lunch here....puribhaji and solkadhi... TEA STOP!!  Saw many of them...   After riding and riding we reached Rajapur and very cheap stay at lodge <Sai lodge>just 300 for a room! Last edited by coolanukul; 09-02-2011 at 04:04 PM. |
