  • [Photo Feature]: Weekend trip to Kondapalli

    Hi friends....
    Well, this trip was made on Dec 21st, 2008........I am new to xBhp.com, so im posting this log now......

    Im doing B.Tech and most of my childhood friends r studying in distant places.....It was the end of semester and all have come back....it was saturday evening and we were discussing about some place to escape the bustle of the city....Some of our collegemates have done a trip to Kondapalli near Vijayawada.....so, we lay down our charts and confirmed it....

    It was our first long ride and careful planning need to be done...so I was incharge....called up some of my friends in Vijayawada asking for the routes.....It was all confirmed.....

    It was a total of 5 bikes.....
    Karizma (Ajay,Susheel)
    Karizma R (Ratna,Hemanth)
    R-15 (Riky,Prudhvi)
    P180 (Sujay,Surya)
    Passion (Saiteja)

    We planned to start by 8 in the morning the next day (Sunday) but were delayed by an hour approx as many got up late.....well, we started at 9.30 from Guntur after filling petrol we stopped on the highway a few times to get some snaps.....then reached Vijayawada by 11.00am.

    We had to stop near the entrance for about an hour as we waited to pick up a good friend (Harsha) from tat place. He would be the pillion on Passion.....Unfortunately he lost his way and we were delayed.....finally we found him and started from there at around 12.00pm.......turned left and left for Ibrahimpatnam.......From there we found out tat Kondapalli fort was a straight drive and Kondapalli town was a right turn.....We headed straight.......

    We lost our way and had to turn back for about 10km after finding out from the locals......The way was adjacent to Nimra Engg College....and we stopped again under some tress to get some good snaps......The fort was midway on the road to the top....we at first headed to the top of the hill, only to find out tat it was a restricted place(Doordarshan Telecast station)...took some snaps quickly, got scolded by the guards and headed down to the fort......

    We enjoyed a lot over there......took a lot of snaps....by now the time was 2.30pm and we started to feel very hungry....so we decided to return........the ride to the bottom of the hill was mind blowing.....there are a lot of beautiful scenaries on the way.......
    We reached Vijayawada by 3.15pm, had our lunch in Lotus Riverside Restaurant.......spent sometime there and returned Home by 5pm..........

    Well friends......this may be a very small trip for most of you......but this is the longest i have ever gone on a bike...and the place is amazing.......worth a weekend trip.... tripmeter reading 200km

    Photos will follow

    Good day....
