Thanks a lot Ananth! Btw, if you have any riding plans towards Mangalore let me know. I'm riding again to Kudremukh in December

Thanks for your inputs. Some of them were taken in phone cam and edited. Will make sure they are more balanced the next time around!

Great pics here !

Looks like you guys had a lovely trip there. Guess we missed something!

Effects on the pics are good too! Keep it up dude!

regards

Shawn

Meghan, I will be in Bekal by November 1st or 2nd week / Kudremukh by December end enroute to Goa

Will call you once i decide things~!

Nice pictures. Try this place, dont remember the name now. Just ride down through Manipal from Mlore and keep going for around 20 minutes till you reach the main junction of a small town. Turn left and you are faced with a V junction, take the left road at the V and keep going till you reach the dam, its really really beautiful.

wow ..nice work bro .. i really loved your photos .

Nice pics Kwok...

about Kmukh - man its really "heaven on earth". I have been there once and spent only one day there because I was pressed for time. I stayed in the same hotel in one of your pics - the pic taken in the parking lot. We got a neat room with a window view of a small peak which @ sunrise was a picture perfect shot - misty with sunlight shining through it. One day @ Kmukh doesn't do justice to the hidden world around it.

And I think you were lucky with the rains too - it rains a lot ...for a long time ...

I want to go back to that place on a bike this time...sometime soon

Awesome pics and what a lovely place.Will surely ride down the place the next time i am in Bangalore!!

Thanks for sharing!!

The pics are fabulous as usual...Lovely trip guys...

Wonderful photos there mate!

The logo is at the front and this is supposed to be on your back right?

WOW..!!!! is wat i can say..... very nice pics n a lovely trip ...

hope me too do the trip to KDM...


cheers

nice ride there Meghan..and very good pictures..now leave KDM alone and ride down to Kerala for a change or even Goa/Pune

Awesomes. Very nice. me likes!

You are riding to Bekal via Managlore?

Yeah, Dam is just a half way mark. It took us like 2 hours or a little more than that to reach the guest house from Mangalore. We were behind schedule, Kwofist was peeking his bike out "Irresponsibly" (ahh... just kidding meg!)

Yeah, it rained when I had been there on Dio and CT100. The fog literally cuts your vision down to a few feet. And it's damn chilly too.. It's quite warm at this point of the year though.

You ride down to Mangalore someday, let's forgot KDM or Kerala... Rememebr Kwofist popping wheelies in Thunderbird with you sitting behind? LOL... wasn't that fun? I wanna do that too... You are a "made-for-wheelie" pillion...

Hey Shawn!!!

Thanks you so much for the kind words macha! Miss the old days of riding together man! We gotto do it someday again. As for memories sake, i'll dig up some interesting rides from the past asap.

Great! Let me know! Anytime after december 10 i should be free. I have prior committments until then which will disallow me from riding anywhere.

Thank you Neil. The place which u mention is Lakya Dam which is a few kms before Kudremukh if i remember correctly. The V Junction comes about 15 kms from Karkala and the Malaghat Check post comes next. Correct me if i'm wrong

Vaishu macha! thanks maga! Glad u liked it Nice to see you active around here these days!


Yes, it is heaven on earth. The place holds an incredible amount of potential for touring and exploring. I plan to do some trekking around here soon. Its pretty economical as well. We encountered a light drizzle at the Guest House before leaving. I've ridden here during the rains. The fog is crazy here. Even more than Mullaingiri. Also Kalasa-Kudremukh stretch you encounter rains while riding more often than on the route to Kudremukh. I'll have some more posts in the future with some pics from Kalasa!

You should come here again and let me know before you do! Kudremukh is light on my pocket usually and the best place to visit from Mangalore.

Thank you so much! It is a lovely place. Try to stay in this place and explore! You will love it!

Thank you so much!

Thanks moeed!

Btw, regarding the tee, my version of it has the same print on both sides and i'm wearing it for the 100th time or so and its not back side front :P hehe
Thanks mate! You should ride to KDM atleast once, that would convince you to ride twice to this place

Maga! Long time no see! Thanks dude! Glad u liked it! South India will come man. Working and riding when possible. Aint easy when cash flows from your own pockets hehe. But will get there. Meanwhile i plan to post some pics from my previous trips to make up for the lost opportunities to ride south.

I've ridden a bit around Pune but not enough to write about it or compliment it with pics but i will do a proper trip someday in the near future

Thanks tau! . Glad you liked it

You meant Peaking out :P hehe.

Btw Thilak i'm sure Anurag got a kick out of that wheelie on the T-bird for sure! haha! :P

nice pics buddyy...

I really enjoyed watching the pics....
