Got up at 6am and started for Araku at 7.While riding on the highway a scorpio just dashed by us and I was chasing it. It was just like in the movies. A cop chase and I was the cop. He was driving so madly that I thought the SUV would topple of..But he made a sudden right turn and went off. Anyways the starting road to Araku is through some small villages who I think its people are either deaf or just plain dumb. They just walk on the middle of the road. And seems like my horn has no effect on them either at one point of time when we are at 120kmph and this guy was in middle of road and I was flashing and pushing the horn, this guy doesn’t budge, so I had to move to the right side which was very dangerous and when I was passing him, he was smiling. Also there’s this habit of people here to light up both indicators to say that they are going straight at a junction…the railway tracks went parallel with the road for some distance and as we went deeper inside the real road to Araku started…
The real scenery started from Shrungavarapu kota (S.Kota).. And started getting more better from Kasipatnam..It was amazing…the mountains, the trees, the clouds, the birds…just fantastic….the greenery was just superb. As we went on ,the roads started its deadly curves. This started from Sivalingapuram These roads are not for new bikers or bikers without experience…they are very sharp and very very steep as well as dangerous…I have even took two videos as Karthik was managing through these tricky yet adrenaline pumping cornering extravaganza…the railway tracks were appearing and disappearing through the mountains…as we went on and on just gaping at the wonderful sights and sceneries we had to take a right turn to go for Borra caves….stopped at a train signal at 9.20am and reached the caves at 9.26am…however the ticket counter wasn’t open till 10 so we had coffee and bread omelets at the APDTC parlor just beside the entrance…sad news prevailed as the news of naxals bandh had the caves closed for the day and we went back toward Araku gaping at the mindblowing scenery I have seen in such a long time…
