          Either the soil there absorbs water very fast, or Prabhu drank A LOT of water that day, leading to that mini lake.

          (Prabhu, kindly excuse, couldn't help myself )

          But seriously, I think Prabhu did this ride about 2-3 weeks back.

            ya it happens after heavy down pour and vanishes in a day. That place Kudremukh and the river is well know for flash floods. This is what the Resort guys told us, when we asked them "Y didnt U guys didnt inform us about the route'

                  If the bike is Turned off it will not take air (Water) in to engine from Filter.....
                  Also need to block the exhaust....
                  Even after doing this the chance is very minimum as the Engine will have Sweeting holes which can also water to flow in to engine.

                  How did you manage...

                    I've seen such a pic for the first time in my life. Nice idea for transporting the bike through the river.

                      as you the chances for that was less and if U have read the blog that is exactly what I was thinking while I took the comet in as the first bike.

                        Whatmore I can say than 'another adventure'. You stand to your ID "prabhu, the Bravo'

                        The pic of bike in river, more than that you guys are then shoulder-level river; cannot think what would have happened you guys loose foot grip in the flow.

                          thanks!!

                          Thats why we had one guy just holding the front and steering, the other does the pushing.. We were just cautious of not letting the bike to fall, as that will screw everything mainly the fuel tank!!
