    Tour Report Approved
    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

          Ha ha ha , no destination , pure riding .... this circuit "Pune - Pavana Dam - Paud - Mulshi - Tamhini - Kundalika - Amby Valley - Lonavala - Pune" sounds good but which turn did ya take to go to Pavana ? The paud-mulshi stretch is very very bad !

              Thanks. Had I was not lazy to start with, would have covered a few missing places too. May be next time.

              I got off NH4 @ Somatne Phata, onto the road to Pavana.

              It is just 1500 odd km's away from you, may be some 14-16hrs of riding. Come over, the tea tastes delicious in this weather.

                Great pics. I did this circuit in June. The surroundings were great but the road is a de facto biker hazard course. Puddles,water,gravel,reckless jaywalkers, its got everything.

                        The route isn't as bad as you said, except for the sections on Pune - Paud - Mulshi road.
