There are two routes NH17 (now NH66, single lane) & NH4 (4 lane with divider).
You can take the NH4 road. Which is safe & fast. Only Mumbai-Pune expressway does not allows bike, otherwise you should be good.
No need for a stop over. Start early morning & reach Goa by evening/night.

Have a safe ride!

If you are taking the NH4 route which is via Pune, then you could take a night halt at either Hubli or Chitradurga. Chitradurga has some decent hotels which are reasonable and offer safe bike parking and are located along the highway

Hi,

I had a disaster of a first run. Couldn't complete the ride. We took the NH66 or the NH66 took us(bad road sense) I'm planning a solo run again next month. Could you please guide me through the NH4 route. Could you please elaborate on how to skip the expressway.

Please try and be as detailed as possible.

Hi.
Take the old pune highway for going via NH4.
For that you need to go below the expressway bridge from Kalamboli McD. And go via panvel city.
Post that you will see boards for Lonavala / pune. Keep going straight on those. Only on one that section will bikes be allowed on the expressway. Take the first exit for Lonavala there.
Post Lonavala just keep heading straight.
You will then pass pune - satara - kolhapur.
Post Nipani just ask anyone for Amboli Ghat.
Once on that road it will lead you straight to Sawantwadi. Just take a left onto the NH17 here and head towards Panjim.
Do let me know if you have any queries.

All the discussions about Mumbai G2G will be discussed here.(Mum-Pune ride/G2G discussions can be discussed here as well)

Note:

For any ride, whether short or long, we advocate the usage of riding gear. No rider is allowed on weekend rides unless he/she complies with the following..

Documents
a. Valid Driving License: MUST have and carry at all times
b. Bike Registration Papers: Original or Attested Photocopy
c. Bike Tax Certificate: Original or Attested Photocopy
d. Bike Insurance: Preferably a comprehensive insurance, personal insurance would be a plus.

e. Riding Boots/Sports Shoes/Army Boots: Anything that covers the foot well.

For weekly\fortnightly meets wearing gear is optional. However if you are coming on a bike, helmet, shoes, Denims/Thick trousers are the bare minimum you should comply with.
Coming geared hasn't harmed anyone and so help yourself
