Epic Solo Motorcycle Adventure into Western Ghats – The Ride of a Lifetime!

Why is it that so many of us are riding to escape life? That urge to leave everything behind, to shut the world out and just to feel freedom? Is it the bike that creates the feeling or we buy the bike because that feeling was already inside us waiting for something that finally makes sense? We say it's about the adventure, about the thrill but is it really about the adventure and thrill? So I ask myself are you running from something or riding into something? On this road maybe I'll find the answer or maybe I won't but for now I'm here and the journey is enough. Ladies and gentlemen let me introduce you to an untold story from a place that feels like another world. Welcome to the enchanting lands of Karnataka. I was thrilled because I'll be away from this concrete jungle for the next 10 days but I will be accompanied by the mountains and beaches. The ride commenced with a chilly temperature of 15 degrees and a very foggy morning. Finally we are back on the road like after almost like two months I guess, two to three months yeah we are back on the road. So where we are riding is we'll be exploring Karnataka for the next 10 days and the route is going to be, we're going to explore all the western parts of Karnataka till Ellapur and then we'll be heading back to Bangalore through the coastal side of Karnataka like Karwa, Kuparna and all of those things. Well there's other side of Karnataka as well that is the Chitradurga, Hampi. Well that is going to be a surprise right because that is completely different side of Karnataka. So yeah that is the beauty of this state. One state you get three things, plateaus, mountains and beaches. Today's goal was to visit Kalasa but also visit Devaramane, Ranijari edge point and Maidati viewpoint along the way. I usually don't enjoy national highways because they tend to be monotonous and straight roads. However the NH75 was an exception. Though the roads were straight, the fog and the greenery surrounding the highways made it extremely beautiful. Isn't that what early morning does to a place? This is the Aoshe C3 Pro, the latest device. So yeah Aoshe sent me this product to review it. This channel will be supported by Aoshe. Thank you so much for that. Now I'm not going to you know just give you a review. I haven't posted any video about this product because I want to check this product how it works before you know just unboxing and giving you a review like for using it for 100 kilometers. No. So I'll be using this product in this ride like for almost 2000 kilometers and I'll be sharing advantages, disadvantages, pros, cons, everything about this product. So yeah stay tuned for that. You know that is going to be uploaded after this series. The highways are indeed great for high-speed rides especially on such well-maintained roads. However, guard roads always provide a thrill that no highway can match. Yes, I entered the guards of Sakleshpur. The chilly breeze, towering trees, the never-ending twisties and turns always bring a smile to my face. So now we are in the guard roads of Sakleshpur. I will not be entering Sakleshpur again. We'll be straight heading towards Devaramani which is approximately 43 kilometers and it's going to take us one and a half hours. Yes, Sakleshpur it is famous for all of this coffee and tea plantations and you have other tourist places you know like off-roading patches and like Hossahalli, I think Hossahalli or if you want some tourist places like Bisley guard viewpoint. There's many places. Yeah, that I will be doing separately you know some other time. I can't complete all of Karnataka in one ride. Now that that will take a lifetime for me to cover. So I will leave few places intentionally so that I can visit again you know. I can enjoy. Now I'm riding in winter season. Hopefully, next time I ride western guards of Karnataka in the monsoon season. That will be very very beautiful you know. Western guards are known to be more beautiful during monsoon man. The stretch of Sakleshpur guard roads was excellent. However, I was unaware that the entire western guards of Karnataka would have the worst roads after this. The roads are not in the best condition. You guys can see so much of you know potholes here and there. I think it's because of the recent monsoon. How can I complain about these roads when I have an adventure bike especially the 310 GS that is meant to deal with such kind of bad roads. Finally, we are into Devaramane. Elephant road crossing area. Oh okay we are going to reach Devaramane. We have to climb all the way. I've already climbed this much. It is a bit difficult but look at the view. Tough roads leads to beautiful destinations. This quote resonated with me throughout my journey. Welcome to the abode of gods, Devaramane. Man oh man what a place man what a place. Really really enjoyed it but right now I have a bad news for myself. I lost the tripod. I have to do something about it otherwise now it's going to be a very very difficult task for me because most of my shots will be on tripod and drone. I was irritated because the tripod is an essential part of my video production houses and with that I began to feel anxious and started searching the nearby towns. Unfortunately, none of the shops had a tripod. I was at the height of my anxiety and feeling restless so I took a short break. The view from this place calmed my senses and I thought let me enjoy the present moment and everything will fall into place naturally. Here while I was taking a break and drone shot I met my subscriber called Gaurav. He suggested me so many places but I forgot to take a photo or video of him. He also said some few waterfalls you know you can trek. Really really thank you Gaurav if you're watching this video thank you so much. I'm extremely sorry I couldn't take a photo or video of you. The plan was to go to Ranijari H point and then go to Maidadi viewpoint and then reach Kalasa but according to Gaurav yeah I will be ditching Maidadi. Reason being yeah Ranijari is much much much better when we compare it to Maidadi viewpoint. So yeah some other time let's visit Maidadi some other time. Instead he suggested me a few more places in Agambe and other parts which I think I'll be covering. After a few meters of good roads I entered a deep forest with an off-road patch. It was at this moment I realized I have entered Ranijari H point. The off-road was initially a flat trail and then it was one hell of an experience. Neither was it extreme nor was it easy but it gave me a very happy experience. After three kilometers of this off-road patch I witnessed something that felt like stepping outside earth. The view from the clouds with the weather changing every minute made the mountains look like painting. Welcome to my home Karnataka a state that offers many worlds. The place was so magical that I decided to have my lunch here. The entire Ranijari was mine to witness. There are some feelings that can't be expressed in words they have to be felt it. So finally I got a room in Kalasa. The budget was 600 rupees. This is the room, very spacious room actually. Double bed, washroom and a chair, tv everything together. Such a beautiful view.
