Since we generally have G2G at roopali on wednesdays at 8:30, i though if everyone can spare some time, we can meet at 7:30, finish everything and then continue to the G2G at roopali as usual.

Date: 27th July
Venue: Team ACCELERACERS workshop, MIT kothrud
Meeting point: TVS showroom on paud road, just after flyover near karve road-paud road junction.

Wonderful trip...
I was bored within the walls when u did this .. Most of my rides are becoming solos after coming to Pune.. Will check this thread for something similar next weekend.

And can you tell me which Geo tagging device you are using?

Hi Kochum,
Yepp keep checking this thread for more rides. I use Garmin eTrex Vista HCx GPS & then transfer it to exif data using any Geo mapping application.

Hi Aniket,
In fact the pictures don't justify the beauty of the nature. You surely miss the fun & I'm there in one of the pic, one of the pillion snapped it. Waiting for the photos from CBR250 guy (sorry forgot the name) & Jackrapz's videos shot using Drift sports wearable cam.
& total moving time was around 7 hrs.

Ya i know you are present in 1 pic..but rest all pics are abhijitless
anyway, guess pictures taken by others will shed some light on you

simply spellbound beauty of nature you witnessed there!
bad health ruined everything for me

and the time i posted is the "driving" time given by google.offcourse the actual "riding" time would be much much more.


cheers.

Dear Gulfy,

I recently rode to Bhor. Road till Bhor is absolutely perfect.

Thank you for your compliments. All those photos are actually shot on mobile.

It was nice of you to take my bike for photoshoot.

Thanking you once again.

Vishwas Sir.

..

Like Vishwas said, the road till Bhor is good. After that the road goes bad right till you exit Varandha ghat and finally meet NH17 at Mahad.

Disclaimer : Based on last year and overall trend. Havent been there this year,so if they have built a better tarmac there I dont know.

Help out with a better route then? if you have any recent updates i.e
I'm keen on taking the NH-17 wherever possible.
Anybody?
Or I don't mind taking the Kashedi route. It's alright.

The distance from hadapsar is aooroximately 15 kms.
You might be able to make it in time.
If you can manage to leave a bit early, that the best thing.
If not then you can still leave at 7 and give me a call when you reach.
I can come and pick you up.
