Hello guys,

Did a short ride with Amit on Sunday through the subjected route. The roads and weather both were absolutely fantastic. Feel like riding again on the same stretch. Here are a very few pics....the best roads were still not clicked- as I didn't feel like stopping, but managed to click a few along the way. Hope you like them.

First stop at Igatpuri...the roads were so fantastic, didn't feel like stopping



Nothing much to click...so caught hold of the railway bridge



Amit shooting the scenery on the banks of Upper Vaitarna



Sun-burn



Mountains & water always make a soothing sight!



Cow-uh Cow-uh Holy Cow-uh....on their grazing duty. The far end is the dam



Our bikes don't missing out on cooling their heels



Amit makes his way back!



The drier side of the Vaitarna dam



Paradise starts! What amazing roads to ride!













One of the rare stretches of straights!



Minimum distance...maximum fun. Will ride again!

Sweet ride there. Nice pics as usual. Were those roads like half laned or something. Almost looks like no other vehicle apart from a Bike or a cycle would ride on it

Thanks.

In that 40 kms stretch, there were 7 vehicles that crossed- out of which 5 were bike. The other two were an Indica and a Swift!

How's the road back from Manor?

It's nice they've given the small interior roads a lick of paint!

@CV: Even the climate was cool….. was feeling chilly late afternoon

@Rahul: Thanks!

@Doc: Well had a bad experience riding from Wada to Manor…it was already dark and construction work in progress made it slightly scary. Oncoming vehicles on full beam and plus sudden diversions with signboards missing…landed up riding in the gravel on more than a couple of occasions. I think the best way to ride is in the opposite direction we did. NH3 at least is a thousand times better to ride at night.
