        Lovely teaser there. Bring on the rest.

        Why is the logic behind wearing the t-shirt reversed?

                    Yes the location is a giveaway. But the emphasis isnt on the location. It was actually a very quick ride to KDM and back but i decided to present it in a better way.

                    The report will be up in sometime. Having power outages here and unable to post it as my laptop is almost outta charge!

                        Kudremukh!

                        I've been there half a dozen times already. Its a special place. A contrast from the city i live in. Beautiful, serene and engaging.

                        Kudremukh is about 110kms from Mangalore and a fantastic destination for a weekend getaway. It was Sunday and we decided to head over to KDM, Kudremukh as we call it.

                        Please read the complete trip log at The Trip Hunter

                        Basically all that we did on this trip was have more fun, ride while managing time and taking some pictures along the way.


                        The beautiful church at Attur



                        Wishing pond at the church premises

                        Our line up: L-R Abhay, Meghan, Thilak, Sunny and Sabata


                        Malaghat Climb


                        Valley at Hanumangundi!


                        Valley near Hanumangundi falls


                        Thilak had brought his tri-pod with him and i had my friend Sidharth's cam and we used it to take quite a few pictures.

                        line up














                        Path to the Valley





                        flying stones
































                        Fastest Indians!





















                        That's me down at the riverbed






                        Thilak with some RedBull

                        This day i almost peaked out my mini-R1. I had hit 143 max before and 142 on the trip but i managed a best of 145kmph on this day. Crouching for over a kilometer, i managed to hit the best speed on my Storm ever! The bike stayed upwards of 140kph multiple times on the stretch with a best of 145kmph. 6 kmph less off redline.



                        Managed my best top speed so far on my R15






                        This was my 5th trip to Kudremukh this year.


                        Looking forward to the next one!

                        At the end of the ride: this was taken at Vamanjoor on the outskirts of M'lore city.

                        P.S. Some additional pics are available at my Flickr

                        P.P.S. Sorry about the poor formatting on this page. Had issues while posting the images and am short on time to edit.

                        Ride Hard & Ride Safe!
