Took a quick nap and started towards sakleshpur. Once we entered sakleshpur temperature and weather changed, May be 5deg Cooler. Started towards kadamane estate.This has a stay option too called Sinna Doari Bungalow. Yugapurusha - Ravichandran Movie was shot here.

After Kadamane we directly headed towards Chikmagalur. We reached there around 6pm , Searched for some budget hotel and called it a day .
Day2 : Next day ride i dont have words to explain. Green mountain covered with fog, awesome corners and hairpin bends. I liked riding more that driving on this road.
