re: Bangalore to Malnad Drive 9th August 2015
Got up early, visited the Murudeshwar temple and quickly drove to Idagunji. A brisk visit to the temple was followed by a heavy breakfast.
Now drove towards Jog Falls via Honnavar. All was well until one an over enthusiastic i20 guy slid off the road in the ghat section and was destined to hit the Linea head on. However, I managed to get off the road, in the process running over a big lime stone. This ensure a punctured sidewall and a cracked windshield. Pulled over, swapped the puncture wheel with the spare and drove on.

Beautiful roads between Sagara and Shimoga
After the Jog visit, drove to Bangalore with a couple of breaks (one for refueling at Shimoga and snacks at Preeti Canteen Birur). Reach home at 9 pm. Trip Stats Distance covered – 1079.8 kms Overall Mileage – 21.4 kmpl Driving time – 23 hours and 53 mins |
