And again i would advise all who are going for this trip to wear hard soled trekking shoes... If you wear sports shoes and stuff your legs are going to be sore... And posting a few pics from my trip... These pics will surely make you all want tomorro to come faster

    Cheers... have a nice ride and trek

          I might go to Mantralaya this weekend... So wouldn't be able to make it... Wishing you guyz good luck for the trip... Still somewhere i feel this is one hell of a tiring journey... This is one such trip wherein you can't take your saddle-bags as they'll be very difficult to carry while you trek... Make sure that the plan for day 3 is sorted out properly, trekking all the way to Bhattara Mane & back will be time-consuming / tiring... On top of that you've to return till Sakleshpura through Shiradi ghats & as per what i gotta know its really bad With proper time management you can make it to Bangalore by Sunday evening...

            Green trek and kumara parvata in 2 days , not possible .
            More over , there are not allowing to walk on the tracks since the OFFICAL trains have started .
            Even if you do get to trek on the train tracks , it will take a whole day to cover 10 -12 kms and you will be dead tired ( I have done this trek) .

            And next day doing kumara parvata in one day up and down is very very tiring .

            First find out if treks at railway tracks are still possible .

            My suggestion would be just do kumara parvata and leave the train trekking next time .
            SPEED .....i need more
            I cannot do burnouts :(..my bike has traction control...

                As always, to be less affected by this itch, one should yield to it.

                So the meeting place is Outerring road - Tumkur road junction at 10:30 right!

                Can you guys post the riders - ride and contact number.

                                I got a puncture kit as well as air pump.. but i guess the alloy got bent or something happened air is coming out between alloy and tire.. its not the problem.. its my leg.. pain is showing up again..

                                PS: Dropped the bike on my leg while parking it 2 days back.. didnt put the stand properly (biker bloopers)
