My cycling trip to Manchanbele Dam - nearly 60 km

My cycling trip to Manchanbele Dam

Our cycling track for the weekend was in a fix. We were in dilemma between Hesarghatta and Manchanbele Dam. 

Finally, we chose Manchanbele Dam for only reason that it was near comparatively.

We started at 6.30 AM from Bangalore University. We wanted to avoid the traffic, so we took Ullal Village Main Road. 

Here are the glimpse of Banglalore University at Morning.

It was unfortunate that the google maps is not equipped with Cycling tracks yet for Bangalore. We forced to land up with the Magadi Road which we wanted to avoid badly, instead wanted to go through the Tavarekere Kengeri Road.

But our GPS mislead us and landed in the crowded and pathetic Magadi Road for Cyclists. 

There is alternate way as well, i.e through Mysore Road, we avoided for the same very reason "Traffic".

So, in the way to our destination, we had our breakfast in the last village where there was some decent hotel available at around 9.30 AM. 

After we headed straight, cruising through the nature's beautiful village roads after passing Tavarekere, And after some point we need to take right which really is awesome track for cyclists.

Here are some of the snaps we enjoyed though the track.

After cycling for about another 75-80 minutes we reached Manchanbele Dam.

While returning we pushed ourselves hard through village roads and finally reached Banglaore University at around 2 PM.

Guys, this was a awesome bike trip, but as usual riding makes you tired. No Problem, but the moments you cherish would make rejuvenate again and make you ready for the next one soon..

Anyways, this is what I liked to share. Trip to Bandipur - Bangalore Via Mysore, Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta.

It was fun and excitement when we started altogether at around 4PM from the foothill of Chamundi Hill. The view, scenery and the serenity was enchanting. Here are the few glimpses of the moments..

So we finally were hungry after a tiring ride of nearly 200 km. We hit straight to chat street behind D D Urs Road. Wow ! Delicacy to remove the hunger, Paddu, Mallige Dose, Palak Dose, Ragi Rotti and a desert to finish with Faluda. A hearty sumptuous meal after all.

Morning at 6AM we started to Himavad Gopalaawamy temple, but reached Bandipur. After sight seeing in Bandipur, we rode to Himavadgopalaswamy betta, where the name itself says Mountain with mist.

Here are the glimpses of the same.
