Hampi.... The Lost Empire

To the Ruins of Vijayanagara Empire.

No rides for the next three months for me :-( A small weekend ride to Hampi, the ruins of the mighty Vijayanagara Empire.
From the busy schedule in office and my travel plans abroad (for work) I managed to squeeze out a weekend for a ride with my buddies to Hampi. A quiet pleasant ride to Hampi and next day exploring Hampi was exciting. According to plan I had to ride back the same day doing a night ride to Bangalore 380Kmts, Parvez and Amit too joined me to ride back to Bangalore, Kamlesh and Shashi stayed back another Day in Hampi. Night ride was really cool except for Parvez's small toss rendering his bike in a non ridable condition to Bangalore, Parvez rode pillion with me to Bangalore and we left his bike at Hiriur near Shashi's home.

2007 First Ride

I was thinking of writing a trip log, but Kamlesh already did it so I am not repeating the same.. Silver-Bullets Bangalore chapter first ride with me, Shashi, Kamlesh and Vaas.



Lying between Shivanasamudra falls and Mekedatu falls is Bheemeshwari, A perfect picnic spot, but we were not interested in that, it was just the ride, breakfast, lunch and the ride back. The twisting roads were not properly banked resulting loosing rubber from my foot rests :)
