Ride to the unexplored,S01E01,Pilot - xBhp.com : The Global Indian Biking Community

There are a lot of great places to visit around Pune. Unfortunately, they are common knowledge and people throng to these places in hordes.
We have ridden to these places inummerable times, and I think all of us are just plain jaded with these tourist spots.
For eg, Mahabaleshwar,Lavasa,Amby Valley,Lonavla,Malshej,Matheran.
So this time we decided to go to places that are not down on the tourist map. We just opened up a few online map sites and scouted the map for areas that hold promise.
What we found was fantastic, this was a new way to tour. Going to places we knew nothing about, we didnt even know if there was motorable road to get there. And that was the fun part, venturing in to the unknown.
We started with a few reservations but this turned out to be one of the best rides ever.

Trip log along with pics coming soon, meanwhile here are a few teasers....

Topic Approved.

@Hyperion: Nice trip you had there, it seems.

Thanks for sharing. Waiting for the rest to follow.

P.S: The picture sizes are way too large for the forum. Please resize them to 800x600.

That is called a ride, exploring. Roll the rest.

Seems the bikes had a nice mud bath.

Thanks for the approval. This was for the teasers only sorry. From now on, I will only be posting images through clickable thumbs.

@Hyperion: I am pretty sure the pictures of such a nice trip can be better enjoyed by the viewers if directly viewed in the thread itself.

Anyways, suit yourself. We all are waiting for the rest of the text and pictures to follow.

That looks like a real ride from what could be inferred from the pics. Venturing to places which are lesser known and facing the unexpected!!

Such adeventure is what lasts long in mind & sets a trip apart. I especially like the 2nd pics; mudstrap boot and front tyre of brawny 220.

@Hyperion : rightly said , the best ride ever . We hadn't done such a thing in a long long time. I hope you'll mention the distrust on the map with red lines

and people actually wondering if there are even roads out there in these parts.

@Nabendu : That was me , but why do you say that?
