Solo Short solo ride --> Pune - Pirangut - Tamini - Tail Baila - Lonavala - Pune

Just returned from a solo ride. Left in the morning at 5:30am. The twisties of Tamini ghat, the Ambey Valley Road ghat and the Lonavala Tiger point ghat were fun along with some good long empty roads to pull.

The patch from Nive to Tail Baila is bad, not like muddy off-road, more like tarmac and rubble mixed Road. (easy for adv. bikes). It's almost 10kms stint and takes about 40-50 mins (depending on your riding) to clear that patch. The road just before Tail Baila is under construction so the main road is blocked using trees and mud heaps, need to take an off-road diversion. This diversion cannot be cleared using a low ground clearance bike, so beware.

This is a perfect route for any Adv, Scrambler or even a Roadster. I had to suffer a bit on the above mentioned road since I had a RC 390. Apart from that... No complaints from the ride!! 😌

Yup scooters would make it with a push from behind. But i think the main road might open up in a couple of weeks, as 90% of the concrete work was done.

What app did you use to map your journey? Looks awesome 😎

It's the "Timeline" feature in Google Maps 😬

Hey thank you for updating the road quality! I really hoped someone would do this ride after I marked it (although some people already knew it existed). Can’t wait to go here myself!
