Day 1
Jan 24th - BENGALURU
Land in Bengaluru, Check-in to the hotel, take possession of your motorcycle and when the sun sets, gear up for the rider briefing. The Evening Gear Scrutiny will kick off with a thorough check of all riding gear and equipment. This process is crucial for ensuring that helmets, jackets, gloves, boots, and any other protective gear meet safety standards and are in good condition.
Day 2
Jan 25th - Bengaluru to Kodaikanal – 400 kms
Today is mostly an easy highway run down to the hill station of Kodaikanal in Tamil Nadu. Today is the day where everybody settles into the rhythm of the ride and finds who they are comfortable riding with. Today also gives the group the first taste of the twisties on the climb up from the plains to an altitude of approximately 7300ft. From here on, it is all about corner carving and easy days for the rest of the trip.
Day 3
Jan 26th - KODAIKANAL TO MUNNAR - 170 KMS
We drop back down to the plains via the Batlagundu Ghat, have a short run across the plains before we climb up the beautiful Bodimettu ghat. Today is special as we traverse the beautiful racetrack of a road – the Munnar GAP road – and trust us, the views on this road are great but you’ll be having too much fun on your bike to look around. Today the group also crosses into the
third South Indian state of the trip – Kerala.
Day 4
Jan 27th - MUNNAR TO POLLACHI – 100KMS + OPTIONAL RIDE ROUTES.
An easy day of riding that takes us back into Tamil Nadu. We ride through the Anamalai Tiger Reserve and once we are out of the reserve forest, we’ll split into two groups. Road bike enthusiasts will have the thrill of riding up the 40 scenic hairpin bends to Valparai, while adventure bikers have the option to tackle a 30 km easy off-road trail for a day full of excitement. Both groups will reunite at our picturesque stay, located about 30 km from Pollachi, nestled beside a serene reservoir. As the day winds down, riders can take a refreshing dip or enjoy kayaking in the calm waters before gathering around the campfire for a memorable evening of dinner and camaraderie.
Day 5
Jan 28th - POLLACHI TO COONOOR – 150KMS
Today’s ride is a mix of state highway and twisties. Once we leave the stay at Pollachi, we ride through a few lesser-known backroads of Tamil Nadu, get to Mettupalayam and ride up the technically interesting Kotagiri ghat. We turn off before we reach Kotagiri and use a series of back roads to get to the old British cantonment town of Coonoor. Our stay for the night is a charming old tea estate bungalow that has been converted into a hotel. The place is dripping with old world charm and that’s what we want you to experience.
Day 6
Jan 29th - COONOOR TO WAYANAD – 120KMS
This will be another day that will be spent in the arms of nature. The journey will be through the heart of the Mudumulai National park and today is twisties, twisties, twisties till you’ve mastered the art of wiping out chicken strips. Our stay today is in a cardamom/coffee estate.
