This reminds me lot of memories where we had a crash earlier during one of the rides
Thanks man!

BTW, let me in advance on your next ride i will surely join and for MAPS, this is the now the internet age. use this instead:
www.mgmaps.com

I download the maps onto phone and use it offline along with a bluetooth GPS. No need for GPRS. Amazing app too

The path visible to me beyond the gate was definitely bikeable, but I don't think we would be able to go all the way up as it would definitely narrow down later. But I'm game to explore the possibilities of that route once you're back!
Yup, pre pre monsoon first time run to K-top!

Nice trip log man!
The route details which you have given just solved all my doubts regarding the route to take for going from Bangalore to Udupi. The part from Madikeri to Sampaje was too bumpy for the bike, rest of the road was good.

I didn't have a good camera , so no pics . It is useless to post a trip log without pics , moreover you have already posted every possible detail about the route and a fantastic log.
