Day 1

We two fellows from Pune planning to spend a weekend in religious way but with some adventure activities, then we started checking different place and finally got the fine location..

A simple tagline of this location is..."have you ever seen Ganpati staying with his blessings on Arabian sea beach"

Yes, it is Ganpatipule, one of clean beach in western India located around awesome beaches nearby in Ratnagiri region.

Now location is fixed and we planned to leave from Pune tomorrow morning and it is 340 km long

Everything is packed and ready for depart.

And only I have ride the bike all he way 680 km

Day 2

Morning 7 am we started our trip in Royal Enfield Thunderbird with our luggage towards Ratnagiri, it was hot sunny when we are starting. By around 10:30 we stopped near Satara and had a breakfast and continued on Mumbai Bangalore highway till the place called Karad, from Karad we took right towards Amba ghat.

I love riding bike on Amba ghat, it has wonderful curves and windmills with stunning view on the way.

We almost forgot our lunch because we almost on love with Amba ghat and busy in taking photographs.

Then we reached Ratnagiri by 4 Pm easily with all beautiful nature view, then we forwarded to Ganpatipule before sunset and we reached the place.

The Ratnagiri to Ganpatipule route is marvelous which has ghats with beach

Once reaching Ganpatipule we had some tough time on searching hotel which we booked and with help of locals we find

That's the end of today with bike ride, love with nature and marvelous ghat wih beaches. What next "tomorrow" yes, visiting Ganpati temple and roaming around empty beach

Day 3

Next day morning we wake up early and went to beach because you find no crowd during early morning. Then we had lot of photoshoot and then came back to room we checked out, then proceeded to temple.

We have our attendance to temple then started our trip back through coastal region roads

Really saying the coastal roads are amazing,

We have experienced deep forest crossing, visited forts nearby and lot.

Once reaching nearby Dapoli via coastal region we need to cross the backwater by ferry boat, it was awesome experience for first time my bike was traveling on boat and crossing backwater river.

On the way I have did small bike wash on one waterfall beside road, because all beach sands are in my bike chain and it will eat and rust my bike like hell.

Then we reached Dapoli and proceeded towards Pune via Mahad and Bhor ghat

It's 3 pm and we are full hunger and not finding any hotels or restaurant on road and now it's heavy rain

Ohhh, ohh my god why you troubling us.. finally after 50 km at 4pm we got food in Mahad and we had little bit and started back to Bhor ghat road

The varandha ghat view was awesome but the road was shit, we almost suffered like hell and my bumps are gone mad

Without stopping in rain and rest, we rushed Pune by 8:30 Pm.. because I'm totally worried about my friend who was pillion rider for 700 km (it is very difficult as pillion rider for these long distance)

Best record we did

But we took next two days leaves because of this last minute bad road conditions

Where my bike got damaged and we got health issues but one thing "all bad roads leads to beautiful location" either way and that is true..
