My First Bike Trip – Nandi Hills
you have severely upset stomach and you are 1500mts above sea level and the nearest hotel is 5 kms down hill and you have to negotiate 36 curves which includes 8 hair-pins
.. wait there is a good news there is a rest room on to of the hill. Park your bike, throw your keys, helmet and jacket to your friend, ask him to take care of it, run past the guy asking money for using the pay-and-use restroom, run in through the open door and .. phew .. heaven. Think thats the end of the story…
Oops .. No water, no toilet paper.. oh no the worst case .. you got into a ladies toilet
…
We started off on a cold Sunday morning at 0600hrs, on the 1st of October… 88 kms straight … no traffic … great road …
My speedometer was dead, i had no clue how fast we were going until i saw this of kannan’s bike…. its 100kmph.. actually we went above that …
.. sorry folks but the road was really tempting.
We drove almost non stop till we saw … finally saw this …
Yes 22 kms to Nandi Hills. The road is a driver’s dream come true … and the hill top … is an exhilarating bliss. On way we stopped to have Karikku a.k.a Nariyal ka Pani a.k.a Tender Coconut Drink, that was my second worst mistake. The tea and the drink reacted and the result was the cataclysmic event which involved the frantic search for a restroom.
The hair-pins, the turns, the temple, the hill top every thing was simply beath taking. We didnt leave any point there un explored… including a small cave near the statue of Nandi.
For the whole hike up hill, we never took the straight road. It was the small kachcha pathways that lead into the foliage that interested us. That never ended in a loss. At the end there was something that really interested us. Even the Tipu Drop…


At the end of the day … it was one trip that will stay fresh in memory for a long time …
Another Loss

.. ohh God what is happening??? .. after my bike suffering a snapped speedometer cable and a broken idicator light.. here i’m with another loss…
Last day, while we were happily enjoying a movie .. a sudden power surge occured which topped 420Volts and burned out 2 of my mobile chargers and my ThinkPad’s power adapter ….
.. what should i say … it cost me Rs 2300/- just like that … i set off yesterday itself … Confident as usual to return back with these items and i did come back after 2 hrs of roaming and getting into 2-3 shops. It was really hard to find an open computer shop on a sunday … left alone the fact, that i was searching for a Coputer shop dealing with laptops … that too on a sunday evening …
i headed off to the place i was sure to find atleast a few shopd open … Brigade Road … Yes that was a really good move… There i was able to purchace the adapter and i got the windows drivers for my thinkpad…
My Bike ….
noooo… The speedometer of my bike just died …
I cant bear this …
