Solo ride to Pondicherry-Mahabalipuram-Kanchipuram : Day 3

Day 3:


          It was raining almost whole night, but i slept well. whole roads are flooded with water, waited till the rains to stop. It was 8am when i came out of the lodge to check the bull parked outside if still ok, clean the bull and it started with a single kick. It was totally cloudy weather so didn't took out the camera. I went to Kamakshi Amman Temple, had darshan of  Goddess Kamakshi. Photography is prohibited inside most of the temple. After temple visit, went to have breakfast this time i had mini idli sambar or 14 idlies, it was good. 
         By 10 am started my journey back to Bangalore. After driving for around 10 km joined the NH 4, from here roads are awesome. Most part of ride it was totally cloudy so it was really cool weather to ride. After around 50km took a left into NH46, drove till Vellore and stopped for refueling. When the roads are very smooth, driving became monotonous and boring when you are driving alone. Driving for another 130 km , reached Krishnagiri by 2:40pm, by this time i was very hungry stopped near Anand Bavan for lunch which about 20km away from Krishnagiri. 
        After good meal and rest, planned to reach Bangalore before evening. I was maintaining decent speed, cross Hosur by 5pm. As it was sunday so most of the traffic was moving towards the city. It took another one n half hour to reach home, by the time i reached home it was 7pm.
       It was good solo ride, with no problem with the bike. Its good to ride in optimum speed so that you don't put too much pressure on the engine and it will give you trouble free ride.
