Prologue

"You go to so many places on your bike and talk about planning to visit each corner of India then why don't you ever think of riding to our native??" Simple question by my father was more than enough to boost my braincells..

I checked with my friends (xBHP members) Sachin and Puneet about it and they were on for it as well an old friend Avinash (silent member of xBHP)

September came and Dad had some work for me to take of at our native I saw the calender, September means "Thanks Giving Holiday" for nice long weekend of 4 days.

I called up Sachin, Puneet and Avinash to confirm the dates... Avinash who also works for US firm got the leaves however Sachin and Puneet could not manage it.

So it was me and Avi (read: Avinash) only!!

First thing I always do was to finalize the route and check for road conditions so went on our very own Mumbai g2g thread and wrote a small query how ever the response was not that great... Everyone said NH17 is screwed and we should use NH4...

But how could I miss all the fun on NH17 so after few phone calls and discussion we decided while going we will use NH17 and on way back NH4

Few teasers for now

Long way to go..



The beach ...



Sunset



The food



The History



And a hell of a experience
