Just finished completing series of matches playing Rocket League online and not feeling sleepy. Better do some writing than some reading before sleeping.
Past few weekends my Saturday is lost in travel for official work and not able to utilise the 2 days of weekend completely to take my new bike out after first service. Independence weekend I took compensatory off to make it 4 days holidays in a row.
Kicked off with a short ride to Nearby Vani after Sai karthik is not answering the phone.
Day 1 - Short Ride - Nashik to Vani (Sapta Shrungi)
Route : https://goo.gl/sVkrez
Starting at 10.45 am in Nashik the weather was dry and sun was blazing hot. Roads to Vani are in very bad shape once we leave Nashik city limits. Not to mention single lane traffic with trucks.
But once we were moving closer to Vani temperature dropped and monsoon clouds made their presence felt and shunned off the sun into the backgrounds.
Halted for a while to catch the glimpse of the scenery.
After the short break we started moving up the road towards the famous Saptashrungi temple we were shortly greeted by a good series of twisted road turns which led us to intermediate flat land on top of the mountain.
This stretch of the road is engulfed by the clouds in every direction except the road.
After that we moved further ahead and reached the temple. Its raining there and crowded place at the foothill.
I did a image lookup of the temple before going there and the view with the monsoon is more breath taking than what images of temple were available on the internet.
Tried for better shot but no one was allowing me to get on top of houses to get a view without current wires.
After having some corn at the temple we head back to explore the down hill side and on some small reservoir caught our attention.
Now, how can we try not to go close and see how big it really it is.
After the small photo shoot and enjoying the time & air at the small pump house reservoir we started to head back to Nashik, thinking the wrists are going to pain in playing the dodge the potholes.
Duke 250 did well though.
And "NO" we did not go inside temple as we did not take bath that day morning
Off to sleep now.

(only food so far). I finished eating in an amazingly fast manner only matched by cartoon characters in eating meat off a bone.
