hi guys welcome to my channel this video
today I present to you a trip from
Bangalore to Coorg which is also known as
mini Scotland of India so it is 2 a.m.
it's going to be 2 a.m. so we are
already prepped with a saddlebags me and
my friend Varun are planning a trip to
Coorg and on the way one of our friend is
going to join us
checking my camera saddle back in
position and on it's a long ride so it's
worthwhile checking everything is
properly in its shape and properly in
its position as you can see I am using a
polythene cover on my phone because my
phone is not what do you say rain proof
so yeah its future proofing my phone so
that you know I don't have to stop on
the way to do that
so finally everything seems to be set to
go and we are ready to go. so we are
finally on our way. we met our friend
Karthik on the way and now we are
heading to Coorg
this is hebbal we're from hebbal we
are going to yeshwantpur and from this
we will take a right which will connect
us to one highway. I think it's  Nelamangla Highway and from that highway we
have to take a left to Hassan Highway so
we left around 2:00 - 2:15 it's going to
be 2:30 right now so we still are at hebbal i
mean going to reach yeshwantpur so this
is the part of road which is really
really bad and during peak hours there's
around 2 kilometers of traffic and it
can actually take you about 45 minutes
to just cross this section on the road
they are building a flyover hopefully
it's made soon at night it's pretty ok
but the dust and everything is really
unbearable especially when you are on a
motorcycle besides other dangers such as
punchers at this point of time this dust
and it's just kind of irritating when
you are ready starting a long journey
but anyways so guys from Bangalore to
coorg it's around two hundred sixty six
kilometers from Hebbal there are actually
two routes one via hassan highway and
other via Mysore Road
the reason why I didn't take mysore Road
because it's not a very well lit road
and it's quite curvy road and the most
important point it's always crowded and
why I took Hassan road it's because it's
less crowded and the Hassan Highway it's
one straight stretch of road and even in
Google Maps if you see he'll show you
around five hours 30 minutes while we'll
be thirty minutes to one hour more in the
Mysore Road so that's the reason I've I
took Hassan highway Road and now I'm
taking right to nelamangala toll so
this around three to four kilometers
after that the toll is going to come and
the road after this section is pretty
good even the nelamangla toll is road
is very good it's quite narrow but it's
really good so guys this is my first
time on this bike with a pillion and
approximately 300 kilometers one way
this is my first time for even the night
ride so I'm quite excited as well as
quite afraid too because I've never done
this before so the precautions which I
have took is to carry at least two
litres of emergency Patrol and to carry
chain lube and carried chain cleaner
while I used diesel to clean the chain
so I carry a grunge brush as well as a
rag to wipe the grime off so I would
recommend you guys if you travel a lot
especially for a long ride carry these
things at least especially emergency
fuel and chain cleaner and chain lube if
you guys can highly recommend to carry
an extra chain set although I know it's
gonna be really heavy to carry all the
chain set and all but it might be useful
in some circumstance or do your service
properly and see the life of your chain
so guys so these are the few things
except the first aid kit which I think
most of the bikes and other cars and all
come with but you should carry you
should see what is missing in your first
aid kit and carry stuff you never know
when the bad stuff can happen besides
that I urge you guys to ride with your
proper riding gears if you don't have
please invest in them I know I haven't
wore them so I don't want to be a
hypocrite but I do not endorse it so I
would highly recommend you guys we're
riding gear even the pillion by the way
so as you guys can see the light that is
the Duke 200 this is the RC 390 with the
projector lamp it has awesome throw of
light see how far and bright it goes it
actually goes even further so yeah
that's the one point I love about my RC
is the projector at night I feel kind of
safe doing  eighty two
hundred kilometres per hour because of
the light it has so that's my friend on
duke 200 we we finally join now this is
the toll road of hassan and it might i
say one of the best highways which i
have encountered till now and it's quite
dark and occasionally there are some
street lights which we find sorry
highway lights but it's quite straight
and it is proper twoway i mean two lanes
occasionally it has some bumps but
mostly it's a treat to ride or drive so
see there are patches of light
which you can see yeah but on the whole
it's you can cruise comfortably around
100 in this highway
although 80 is safe but yeah you can go
hundred
 
so after that awesome ride on the Hassan
Highway we decided to have some
refreshments and so at night there are
pretty few places on the highway where
you can stop and have tea and
refreshment so this being one of them so
I occasionally enjoy tea it keeps me
awake as well as keeps me mentally
motivated for the ride
 
very refreshing tea now we'll restart
our journey see guys this is the light
I'm I I was talking about rc390 has one
of the best projectors ever seen in a
stock bike till now and I'm talking
about below 400 cc bikes so it's around
4:20 in the morning till now so far so
good
my friend Karthik came straight from
work so he didn't have any time to
refuel his bike so right now he's
telling me that he's running low on fuel
so we have to stop at the next fuel
station as our bikes are fuel-injected
we should not let our bikes show low
fuel warning because it might create
some issues with the fuel pump and fuel
injection system so next petrol pump we
stopped and he's refueling after that
we'll continue our journey so guys my
friend fueled up full tank
I didn't fuel up I have so much fuel
left so now it's going to be around 5
a.m. but it's so dark really eeriey dark
can't believe in some time the Sun will
come and it'll be all bright I can't wait
guys I can wait
I've been driving in this dark for quite
a long time and can't wait the Sun to
come up and brighten my day so far I'm
not feeling tired so guys this is the
fourth toll and I am really glad that
bikes don't have to pay toll  that's
amazing
cuz in foreign countries even bikes have
to pay toll so it's going to be around 5
a.m. and I'm not feeling tired I slept
well and this highway is kind of
interesting it doesn't it's not boring
so you don't feel sleepy even though I
am riding with a pillion
I'm not feeling fatigued
even though this is Supersport position
because it's a highway and I'm
comfortably cruising if it was city
traffic and all rc390 you get tired
within 15 minutes but I can ride in this
position on this highway for all day
long at least I would like to think that
guys in a few seconds you will see an
auto coming on this Lane see he is
riding at approximately 50 km/h and he
saw both our bikes coming and he still
came the wrong way as surprisingly I saw
him and I took evasive measures but see
guys this is the problem in India even
if the roads are nice well paved proper
signals are given still in order to save
one milliliter of fuel they'll ride in
the wrong way for kilometers and
kilometers putting their life in
jeopardy and even ours
so guys finally the Sun is out and I'm
so happy to see light so we are
continuing our journey it's 6:00 a.m.
and that's the reason why I keep a
timestamp for you guys to see what time
it took for me to travel and the date
and everything so hopefully you guys

and comment if you want me to change
something or enhance something or tell
you something I will be more than happy
to tell you so guys on our way found
this beautiful place and this beautiful
bridge and apparently we were so lucky
because there were people shooting a
movie
we didn't ask which movie they are
making or we didn't interact with these
people but it's good to know that you
know this place is so special enough
that they are making a movie so they're
preparing a set down there they're
cleaning it and they have drones flying
over this bridge it's a very beautiful
spot so we are lucky to see how a movie
is made and how they are preparing and
it's just they're just starting the
actors are not here yet they're just
preparing the set I guess we wouldn't
wait for long so we'll soon be on our
way
so guys we're finally entering Coorg and
let me tell you this guys the roads are
so amazing even if it's curvy it is
proper proper very well paved road and
let me tell you guys for a biker the
road here is heaven the only downside or
problem is because of the rain you can't
ride fast or corner your bike well
that's the only downside otherwise the
road itself the tarmac everything is
awesome and the temperature is something
which a biker would love here because in
a car or a bus or anything you don't
really feel the temperature because it's
climate control but for a biker
it is truly in touch with the nature so
the temperature here is so awesome you
just have a jacket on and you won't feel
cold or hot in this temperature plus see
this guy's fog and trust me the camera
isn't doing justice you have to
experience it yourself it's beautiful
it's beautiful all the tiredness
everything just by looking at this
everything went out of the window and
I'm feeling so refreshed right now just
look at this guys this is like so
beautiful so beautiful it's green the
temperature is awesome the road are
perfect everything is awesome as soon as
you reach coorg this thing starts and you
know your heart starts beating and your
mind is blown away
so we finally will have
some refreshments here D coffee and do
some photo shoots and go to our hotel
