Kolli hills: I am planning to go there from last few weeks but my friends won't like to come there because of long distance travel so i am planned to go solo. This was my First solo ride so i am very much excited and also i have fear because of in this ride anything can happens. Putting my confidence level too high and started to plan yes this should be one day trip because i am solo i don't like to stay at any place i planned the trip on a Sunday 22.02.2015 everything packed up and the condition of bike is checked and everything going right and its time to set the alarm and then went to sleep. Alarm rings at 3.30AM and then get ready for the trip and its time is 4.20AM yes Lets start the Ride....
Started the Ride and went to a gas station and filled petrol full tank and then started the travel in NH 45A and from my home NH45 is just 22KM. Riding in an average speed of 70Km/hr and then reaches villupuram and takes NH 45 and the traffic in the road was full with containers and cars travelling in an average speed with enjoying the winds and cold climate reaches semmangiri Toll gate and its time to stop for just 10 min because it was very chill and then cleaned Helmet Visor and then again started travelling and turns into the Salem highway and just stopped to click the photos of mountains in the morning light at Thyagathuruvam and then travelling via kallakurichi, chinna salem since it was a highway some roads are only two way roads I don't know why? cars coming infront of me in both lanes and then reaches Attur at 7.30AM. After three hours travel I just stopped in Attur junction and then seen Gmaps for the route it shows a short route to reach Kolli hills.
From Attur it was a state highway and the roads are somewhere worst and somewhere very nice new road. I travel at a minimum speed of 50Km/hr and then travel along the villages and reaches the foot of Kolli hills. I just stopped and take some food and then clicks some picture from there i seen a two wide Hair pin bend while travelling it was an amazing experience because i am in the back of kolli hills.
DANGEROUS DRIVE:
gmap shows the short route from attur to reach the kolli hills but it fails to say about the road condition when I started to climb it was nice road and also new road after some kilometer the roads went very worst and also strep. I read many blogs about trip to kolli hills and i found there will be 70 Hair pin bend i never seen such a information while travelling through the roads and i asked the villagers there how to reach kolli hills they said this is the road to reach kolli hills but i confused and asked is there any other roads to reach kolli hills from attur they said yes and i travel via rasipuram and reaches kolli hills. Again i started to travel in this road and there are uncountable hair pin bends i pass through and i will be like travelling in a dense national park while no others travelling with you. In the road there are only two me and my bike again my bike confirmed that I am the Lord of the Streets even in hill road, muddy road anywhere i will prove it. so only my bike become my best friend many obstacles will come in the way especially monkeys seen around many gangs and they try to catch me even in some places but they failed and the scenery was very awesome. The one and only failure in the solo ride is you can't able to take more pictures. Reaches the semmendu at 9.50 and then seen many bikers in Enfield and CBR are travelling in Kolli hills and said just a Hi they said too. After 80 Kms of hard travel need a relaxation so stopped in semmendu petrol pump and say a guy and asked about the routes to reach waterfall, Garden and boat house and also about the 70 Hair pin bend route.

Aagaya Ganga waterfalls:
After get relaxed in petrol pump and the routes are now clear and started to travel to the waterfalls and then roads are again good and very scenery and enters into the temple road and they put 10 rupees bike token and also entry fee of 10 rupees for waterfalls. To reach waterfalls we have to go down 1050 steps while going down it looks nothing after that you may feel. While going down you will see a view point and take some Selfie there and reaches the waterfalls and it looks mind blowing. stayed for some time there with the breeze it really great. Being a solo rider i am unable to take bath in the falls because of my body condition and also climatic conditions while going back home i will suffer more so just enjoyed and started to go for another falls and now time for feeling because major problem of visiting this falls is climbing back to the top and it is 1050 steps unable to explain the feeling of climbing (After two days i am writing the blog with more pain in my leg due to this steps.)
anyhow back to the bike and started to ride to another falls.

MASILA falls:
From here only 6Km to reach the falls and the roads are again great and new. The Hill roads are always good and it attracts bikers very much in the curve every biker should feel the curve turning like a heaven because i love the curve turning in the hill. Reached falls and get the entry ticket (Amount =10 Rupees). From the parking it just a 200 meter to reach the falls and from parking itself you will see the falls and reached the falls and water is not so much falling as in Aagaya Ganga and here just face washed and take some clicks and then went near the children's park and played for some minutes in the swing.

Return to Home:
Its already late now time is 2.30 and went to a hotel to have lunch and had a Briyani and no time to visit Garden and Boat house because being a solo rider you can't able to travel in late night so i planned to move and now my route is through Rasipuram and attur. From here i will be moving through the 70 Hair pin bend road and the roads are very good to travel and more scenery too. While crossing through every hair pin bend i feel the experience of riding in hill. while coming down i feel the temperature goes up and feel the heat. While reaching down the time is 4.00 PM and started to throttle up before 9 i should reach home and i too started feel the tired and the throttle goes up to 80 in state highway to reach attur and again crossing Narasimman hill there was also a hair pin bend it is the last and reaches attur by 5.00 PM still the sun in the sky so i just stopped at attur and have some biscuits and water started to throttle too up and the way is free for me and reaches the semmancheri at 6.30PM and have a sugar cane juice at the toll gate and then again started to ride and seen a Duke biker travelling high speed in highways without helmet just laughed at him and throttles up and reaches the home at 8.00PM before one hour reaches the home as per planned the ride is safe and really enjoyment
