    Hey guys ,
    Thanks for the lovely ideas and quick responses .
    No choices about this time of the year , manager agreed to give me leaves when i asked him casually and i dont wanna say no :-)

    MG,kashif , hydro-thanks guys .
    Will try going north MH if u guys say its good .
    Hope to meet you guys in Pune/mum or wherever.

    btw.. any particular reason for coming north of blr?.. had you come here in aug-sept you'd have gone back with the biggest grin ever.. nows a better time for ooty, munnar, kerala .. but i guess that's been done several times over..
    @hydro- Bored of south man , can go whenever you feel like , its like backyard.
    MH or i even had plans of meeting of meeting our friends across the border (wagah). and dump bike in train n fly back from delhi.

    Vaas2000 will also be coming with me .( u ll be able to find him on scale model thread) .

    I wanna see Mumbai :-), the famed city.

      really great plan.. but I would say, kind of saddel sore ..

      after every 3 days, keep one day as backup.. absolutly blank/ '0' KM covered.
      just in case you like some place.. or road condition is too bad.. or god forbid ny accident.
      just suggestion.
      also, decide on whether you want to see some place or just pass through it.
      like day7:
      lonar, aurangabad, pune, diveagar.. you are covering 4 big places.. you want to see something in there.. or just pass through them..

      either way is fine.. but first decide and then make a decision

      also, try to reach a place a night, where the accomodation is good and cheaper

        more suggestions with comments:

        Day 1: Bangalore – Belgaum – Amboli – Tarkarli (Beach)
        Day 2: Tarkarli – Malvan (Sindhudurh Fort) – Devbagh Beach – Vijaydurg – Ganapatipule
        Day 3: Ganapatipule – Chiplun – Koyna – Karad – Satara (Windmill Farms)

        --> NO IDEA, WHERE TO STAY IN SATARA, BETTER ASK SOMEONE..

        Day 4: Satara – Mahabaleshwar (You can take your bike in a boat: Refer PKM blog) – Poladpur – Mahad – Bhor – Nasrapur – Pune

        --> SEARCH A BIT AND IF YOU CAN SKIP MAHAD, TRY TO AVOID BHOR ROUTE. INSTEAD DO MAHABALESHWAR TO PUNE. 150 KM. SMOOTH ROAD. 2-2.5 HOURS.. AND SPEND WHOLE DAY IN MAHAB/ PUNE INSTEAD. THIS CAN BE TREATED AS THE BLANK DAY I WAS TALKING ABOUT

        Day 5: Pune – Narayangaon – Bhandardara – Jawahar – Trimbakeshwar – Nasik
        Day 6: Nasik – Ellora – Lonar
        Day 7: Lonar – Jalna – Aurangabad – Ahmednagar – Pune – Pirangut – Mulshi – Mhasla – Diveagar (Beach)
        --> DAY7 SEEMS A BIT SADDEL SOUR.. but i guess, Day6 and 7 has been quite easy.. so should manage.

        Day 8: Diveagar – Mahad – Chiplun – Ratnagiri – Kankavli – Margao
        Day 9: Margao – Bangalore (Take the route you wish to take).


        --> NOW I FEEL BETTER. Have a good trip .

        have done in last three weeks:
        pune - ganpatipule - pune (overnight stay)
        pune - tarkarli - pune (overnight stay)
        Pune- mulshi-mangon-mahad-poladpur-mahab-pune(non-stop : 8 hours slow riding..))

        chiplun to koyna is one of the heavenly route..

        this weekend doing pune - diveagar - pune leisure overnight stay.
