Hulikal Ghat

It was my first long ride, previous best was Mullainagiri and to add to that i was riding solo. Started 5am from Malleswaram,



As it was a long weekend Yeshwanthpur signal was jam packed at 5, had tough warm-up session early morning.
Somewhere near Kunigal.Nothing much to say about this route. Boring Highway.

Kunigal

Fun started after crossing Hassan. Two lane highway all the way to home.

Belur Road

Aldur to Agumbe has a newly laid road and some awesome corners. Riding my 220 was little difficult. This road is meant for Naked bikes.

Near Balehonnur

390Kms.. I Was home. First half of agumbe ghat is in very bad condition.

Return Journey

I wanted to drive balebare ghat from long time and somehow missed it every time.
