    Agree with you on the lovely road.Did the route from Eranakulam to Bangalore some time back. But the Bangalore/Mysore/Bandipur/Calicut/Ernakulam (our onward route) is slower but definitely a lot more scenic. Will be doing a longer route next month- Bangalore/Mysore/Calicut/Ponnani/Ernakulam/Alleppy/Kollam/Trivandrum/Kanyakumari and back to Bangalore .
    Good Luck,
    Cheers
    Yeah that route is gorgeous. I am originally from calicut, so I know the bandipur route like the palm of my hand (Wyanad is always mesmerizing) and if time permits I may do that route. I was supposed to do that Ekm-Clt-Blr route but since I was in a hurry I took the salem GQ route and did Ekm-Blr distance of 540kms in lil less than 9 hours incl breaks for b/fast, lunch & fuel. Max I touched was about 170kph and enjoyed the ride esp those fast ascending bends near mettur where a crazy innova was trying to catch up to me and he miraculosly escaped ploughing into a truck after loosing control.

      Hi Harshit,
      You are so right about the beauty of Kerala. I,ve been riding/driving mostly in Goa. Karwar, Mangalore etc. Planned to ride to Kerala this time to really check out the sights, especially the Kottayam, Alleppy, Kollam area. Plus I have cousins at Paravoor and Trivandrum. Will be just passing your place Ponnani on NH17.
      Good luck & Take care

        Thats a nice route and a good road

        HTML Code:
        Bought some water and poured it over my engine block just to cool it a bit.
        Thats a bad idea to pour water on the heated engine
