inside road ride - in the hills - june 09

i call this the inside road ride. last year myself, Satish (winsor pub), Easha and Meghana(levitate) explored the inside connecting roads from bangalore to the Nilgiris bio-sphere. it was fantastic ride exploring the short steep ghtas of Anchetti - crossing the cauvery on a coracle carrying bike along - connecting the famed Veerappan home in Gopinatham > MM hills > BR hills > Dimbam > hit the plains at Bannari > Mettupalyam > Kotagiri > OOty > Kalhatti > Bandipur and back home to Bangalore. we thorughly enjoyed it last year and beleive it is one of the best this side of the country. we tried this again last weekend(june5-8) this time with a new bunch of people. it was fun like last time -we decided to make it last another extra day. 4 days on the road - 700 kms - 450kms of rolling hills and fantastic ghat section. will post pics soon - as i did not carry my camera along. cheers, happy riding..
