    Introduction: Rides and Riders










    It was almost a sleepless previous night due to excitement of going for the long bike ride. Being married with a kid, there was some initial resistance but finally I got their nod.
    It was decided to assemble at the Yerwada chowk at 6:30AM. But as usual, there were some hiccups and finally everybody arrived at 7:30 AM and we started at 7:45AM. Bandya the Batman who is the leader came to see us off as he was unable to join because of typhoid


    Lonar is the only place on the earth where there is a CRATOR formed due meteoroid impact. We decided to visit this CRATOR the next day early morning. So we decided to call it a day, had our dinner in some cheap hotel (which was the only source) and had a peaceful sleep
    Good roads were the highlight of the day

        As decided, we got up early and went to the CRATERThe road was a two lane highway since Jalna.
        animals such as panthers, wild bores, deers etc

        Now came the tricky part. There were 2 routes again . 1 which was almost 85kms through Paratwada and other through the Jungle of 24kms . So it was kind of choosing between the Devil and the deep sea. We chose the devil J
        J. After riding for almost 45 mins, a ray of hope appeared as we reached the other check point. The guard checked all the bikes and the receipts which we took at Khatkali. He also informed that the same day early morning he saw 2 Tigers Jdark

                  There are almost 54 tigers in the Melghat Tiger Reserve. We took our tea break at Semadoh. At 6:50PM we started our journey towards Paratwada (45kms). It was again ghats and jungle all the way. Only conforting fact was, we were out of the Tiger Land
                  First time I had to travel almost 100+ for fuel

                        TOTAL 1192kms

                        Got up early in the morning as we had to start our Journey back to Pune. At 8:15AM, started our Journey to Semadoh again from the same forest. Paid the fees (had to pay the fees repeatedly for 3 days as they give only 1 day pass). From Semadoh we reached Dharni (938kms) at around 10:25AM. We had a nice breakfast and tea break . Tried some local breakfast which was really good. After 35 mins we left Dharni and after few kms entered in Madhya Pradesh
