Leave my sister's place early so that my bike could be attended first at the service center. Say my brief travel story so that my bike would get some good treatment. The spares are available for my relief. Wait patiently for the work to be down and the bike is rolling out of the service center by 1 pm.
Head straight out of Hubli town and welcomed by super smooth two laned road. Naive of me to think its like this all the way to Bijapur... Looks like its going to rain and i am forced to wear rain gear. 15 mins and the rains gone and there is even some sunlight. These false rains alarms are very irritating. I have no patience to get out of the rain gear so i ride on. Stop for lunch at Nargund and some 20 kms around here is offroad. Gave me scares that it will be like that till Bijapur. But luckily the road got to its good state and i could ride at 110 and above. Back to the fun of overtaking all the vehicles on the road. Pretty uneventfull ride and i get to Bijapur by 6 pm and i settle in my Aunts place. Will be here for 2-3 days. This is like my another home and could relax for couple of days here before my run for the southern tip of India.
