      Nice ride there, Prabhu! Guess 2008 is the year of Kodachadri for xBhp.
      All men dream, but not equally. Those that dream at night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act upon their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible. - T. E. Lawrence

        may be dude..
        But I feel Kodachadri is no more a challenging/Interesting place. Its fully crowded with almost 1000 tourists vising the place on weekends. And the path too is just like any other offroading. No solitude any more. may be a weekday visit will be peaceful.

        I wish only that day was like that.

          This is quite disappointing.

            For a trip this is not that far... but sad to hear though... was thinking for doing a ride... but if there's too much crowd.. its not where i would want to be.. thanks for the headsup.


            Good pictures there man.. liked them..

            and if u remember...how was the route from Agumbe to Shimoga?

              I didnt travel in that route this time. We came via Chickmangalore.

              But a few months back we went in that for some 25 kms for the sun rise point. The route was awesome.
              The distance would be around 93 kms.
