As you may already know it, we’re in to “two-wheelers” a lot and preferably with an engine. As a consequence, on week-ends, we’ve started to ride around Bangalore to explore the small local roads in the countryside. What’s great is that if Bangalore is all chaos and pollution, its surroundings are all green and calm.
Wandering on those tiny roads around Bangalore is finding yourself directly in small villages untouched since the 50s, going through green landscapes with terrace cultivations, discovering the silk worm farming, running over cut wheat that farmers have put on the road (to crush them easily), meeting locals over a “chai” or also running over a suicidal squirrel…
So, once again, the journey is more important than the final objective.
As we’ve started to form a nice team of bikers sharing our taste for adventure at the end of “Hosur road” (THE flyover to exit the city without any traffic jam), we’re having fun!
Concerning the “reached objectives” (because it also happened that we had to come back earlier because of a mechanic problem), we’ve already explored only the south of Bangalore and we noticed that the so-called “safari” in the Bannerghatta National Park is better than what you can expect from all the family tourism circus going on there (we’ve seen some white tigers!) and Ramanagaram’s hills don’t have to be jealous of the Rio de Janeiro’s sugarloaf mountains. Nothing less!
