1. Bangalore to Coorg
If the bustling Bangalore life compels you to take a vacation to a lonely place, ride to the 'Scotland of India', Coorg. Riding through the winding Western Ghats, hugging the coffee plantations and the rough terrains indicate an adventurous yet peaceful holiday. Also, the amazing local food joints serving the most delicious masala dosas and maddur vada is rather inviting.

4. Chennai to Pondicherry
Admire the architecture of the French and a lazy weekend at Pondicherry. The route to Pondicherry is among the best rides you can get from Chennai. Look out for the huge salt making set-up at Marakkanam which is 50-60 km from Chennai. The curvy roads will surely excite the riders but at some points it is curvaceous to the point of being risky. So watch out!
