9000

parikrama over, back to erode! its been quite a hardcore two weeks, tamil nadu and kerela make one hell of a pair! erode, kodi(yes we scored mushrooms, but dry mushrooms are fuck all you have to come in september!)then adi left for his daddy! and the pace quickened for a toddy guzzling enraged driving bout with swastik.

madurai, rameshwaram, dhanush kodi, eruvadi, tuticorin, tirunelveli, nagercoil, trivandrum, enter kerela! varkala beach . . . jew town cochin . . . pannor beach, tellicherry, waynad, ooty, erode. . . awesome circle. the roads were also great leave a few!

now i plan to drive up the centre, lets see how fast i can manage it! its about 2500 . . . my average has dropped to just 200 km/day since i met adi! cheers!

we're upto 3! almost managedfour but the big gada andhisoldbike couldn'tpartfrom bangalore.so now tik adi and i go further down! we've reached erode . . . adi's mansion full with blasting music, net servants dogs and aircon! the mushrooms are calling!

the drive down the centre of the country was really something else! the plateau is quite spectacular! never expected such expanse . . . and then some! not to mention ajanta ellora daulatabad bijapur hampi where we decided notto bunk the entire coast and head out to gokarna . . . truely one of the virginestbeaches i have seen! golden sand transparent waves and lush green mountains crumbling stonily into the surf . . . beats the pants off goa!

nh17 hasclimbed up to the top of my favouritehighways! udipi manipal managalore bangalore erode . . . the drive from banagalore to tamilnad is also something else! you can sensethe peninsula petering out bouldering southward! the last leg promises to elevate!

cheers!
