Sublime Getaway!
Agumbe – Thirthahalli – Kuppali
March 13,14, 2010
This March, join us for a 150 km ride in the western ghats of karnataka. The “Sublime get-away” passes through Agumbe, Thirthahalli – an area that receives the maximum rainfall in karnataka and is known to be one of the most green parts of the state.
Thirthahalli is surrounded by tea and coffee estates and is a favourite for place for a lot of film shootings. The expert riders can have a go at conquering the kundadri hill which challenges the best of riders. The riders also pass through Kuppali, the birthplace of revered kannada poet and writer Kuvempu. The small stroll to kavi-shaila and the sunset view is an out of the world experience.
The cost of the ride is Rs.3000 (Bangalore to Bangalore). And don’t worry if you do not have a bike – we will arrange a rented bike for you at an additional cost of Rs.400 for the trip!
