Kakabae - Tadiyandamol trek in Coorg


Previous



Me, Ashwin, Rahul and Vinal decided to hang out after a long time. Ashwin googled around and came up with a plan. day 1 Brahmagiri Hills and Day2 Kakabae - Tadiyandamol trek. To my suprise my wife too volunteered to join in. The starting time was decided to 3 am. It was raining heavily in the morning but still we decided to push away. By 6 we were at mysore, had Break fast there and moved on. By 7 sun was out and the rain cleared away.

Vinal Lubricating the chain.



After this I took and speeds and rode away. After some 1 hr I took a break. Waiting for the others.




Trying to reach them


Then we can to know that I should ve taken the left to go via vijarapet. So had to track back.
We regrouped at the junction and had a good laugh.

The roads after that was okish, with Volvos occationally passing through
another photo break






Vinal imitation me and Ashwin


We then reached Vijarapet. Took a left there to Brahmagiri. The road after this was pathetic. I with a pillion found it difficult to maintain speeds with them. Then at the place where we need to get the permits we learnt that we should ve been there by 11 max to get the permits. It was 12:30. So had lunch there and planned to visit the falls and then go to kakabae and stay!
