Hello bikers..


i have been a silent member in xbhp for quite a while. Just happy reading travelogues/information here.


Please HELP ME with the below queries.


1. From 15-Aug-2013 to 18-Aug (4 days) planed for a road trip. Either from Chennai to Kodaikanal (Or) Chennai to Ooty. Please suggest me on which place is better with respect to road conditions/climate etc.


2. I live in Chennai. Please help me with the route for both the places.


3. I planed to take my R15 with a pillion (My frnd, we already did chennai to GOA last year) Let me know your suggestions since this is the first tym im taking my bike to hill stations.


Also any frnds (esp from chennai) wish to join me on this trip are most welcome.
