In my Rajasthan plan, Only first day is going to be a hard run but roads are excellent so it is possible. Start early morning and reach at night around 10.
Are you planning to ride too? I hate to say this but I dont have anyone else confirmed yet.

Rajasthan Trip!!
Hi bro if you guys are planning to go to MT Abu in April i'd love to come. Will be back in Goa from the Uae Mid- April, hopfully 11th or 12th. Coincidentally this March marks 15 years since i finished my schooling there at Saint Mary's High school (Boarding). So this would be really important to me since i have not been back to Mt. Abu since 1997. Let me know the plan guys!Originally posted by ankss View Postyup .. i am planning it but not in feb ... as am going to GOA in feb end ... so long road trip(more then a day ) will be in april ... ..

Hi bro have you studied in Saint Mary's as well? Which year did you finish? Regarding the trip it has to be toward the end of second week of April or start of 3rd week as i plan to be down around the 11th or 12th. I need to get the trip plans from Ankss or Sachinnair. They have not yet responded conclusively. Thing is i need to ride at least 2 days in advance from Goa and then meet you guys in Mumbai. 1 day kept for rest/ prep/ logistics orientation in Mumbai before the ride to MT. Abu. Most likely if i don't get like minded people.. I'll have to ride to Mumbai alone and i have never done this before. Only travelled by bus, plane , train.. So i have no idea where we must meet or where i can stay for one day before we start the journey! Hoping Ankss or Sachinnair respond and provide full details and dates once planned! Before i ride down , my friend from Bangalore will be coming to Goa to install an aftermarket exhaust and some other stuff.... So this would be the perfect break-in for those things. The bike has only 1900km on the odo so far. So i'm rearing to go... Just need concrete details from the planners who have done this before! Awaiting a reply! I know this is early but i get a vacation only once a year so i have to ration all my activities to spread equally in that one month! Cheers! Keep me posted!Originally posted by justshan21 View PostHey Jeof if u goin to Abu in april will try to join you been along time since i've been to school too.

Day 1: Goa - Sawantwadi - Nipani - Kolhapur - Satara - Pune - Mumbai
Last I did this route it took me 10 hours with all the useless breaks
Day 2: Mumbai - Surat - Vadodara - Ahmedabad - Mt. Abu
Again have done this in 14 hours with 3 major food breaks plus other TP breaks
Day 3: Mt. Abu
Personally i think one day is more than enough to see this place unless you want to catch up with old pals and extend your stay
Day 4: Mt. Abu - Ahmedabad - Vadodara - Surat - Mumbai
Day 5: Mumbai - Pune - Satara - Kolhapur - Nipani - Sawantwadi - Goa

Thanks for the route info bro. It may be six days actually... Was planning on a day's rest in Mumbai. So let's see how things work out. So far i have one guy like to come from Goa on his N250. Hoping the guys from here finalize plans and let me know before April! Even though it may be six days for me i'm still excited cause the next opportunity for a vacation will come only next year!! I'm excited at the prospect of seeing the place after 15 years! As far as friends are concerned i'm not in touch with those who are based in MT. Abu. But that can be sorted!Originally posted by viraj_s85 View PostIf you ask me then i would say its 5 days for you my friend.. (Specially if you using N250)

I'm all game to travel man.... I've got to ride from Goa... So i need to get someone from here to ride as well till Thane where the plan was to meet up with the other guys and then ride on to Abu... So just waiting patiently for the Thane guys to come through at the moment... It's been several months now and there's been no word from them... Guess their all busy and stuff... I will be down in Goa by the 13th morning... 1 or 2 days after that will go for installin aftermarkets... And then i'm all set...Originally posted by rutvij_3400 View PostKeep me posted about your plans.
