Ninja Diaries

Hello readers,

My dream from child hood became a reality when i could earn enough money to by a Big bike!

Brief Intro on the bike: Kawasaki Ninja 650R (650cc,72bhp)
Few numbers which will define the bike for some...0 to 100km/hr in 4.6Secs and Top speed of 210km/hr

First Trip: Nandi Hills

I would say the most scenic and the closest hill station to Bangalore (65Kms from MG Road), Approach through the International Airport Road, 4 lane road (Don't get excited... Speed limit 80km/hr)
It is a country road leading to the foothills post diversion from the main road (paved well)
After that starts the ' big treat', mind blowing twisties till the top of the hill! this is where the hill climb events happen right from the olden RD 350 times...

On top of the hill, its a trek to some historical places like Tippu Drop, frankly not very well maintained.."Its the journey not the destination" is an apt phrase for this place, there is a government guest house, a hotel (Mayura) where you can have a hot cup of coffee overlooking the skyline of the city!

All in all...its a fine one day destination, if you love to ride and like cold weather!

When in doubt, Flat Out!
