Details:

This is a one day ride over the weekend. Actual plan was to visit Balmuri Falls and Chamundi Hills. The day when we went was Chamundi Devi's birthday. So it was too crowded and they were not allowing the private vehicles to the hill including bikes. So, KSRTC have arranged FREE buses from Mysore to Chamundi hills. But since it was over-crowded we didn't visit Chamundi hills. We thought we will ride back to Bangalore, because the return traffic on Mysore-Bangalore road will be heavy on Sundays. Details of the trip follows:
     On the way back we visited RASTA CAFE, which was in my list from last 4 years.

We started at 5.30 AM in the morning as we wanted to. No much delays this time.
The most interesting part of this ride for me was the usage of SJCAM 4000 WiFi Action Camera which I bought recently just for my rides/drives. Will upload the review of the camera in sometime. But the videos recorded with this are uploaded in my channel in youtube - BIRDVIEW (startup).

Here are the photos captured and the trip details.
