Yet another weekend and looks like I can sneak out a 2 day’s ride. Thought of checking out the mahabalipuram. Pondicherry and couple of other places nearby. As planned with Vipin(My Collogue) for this Bike Ride, we Started early by 6.30 am for what 'can be called trip' after 2 months of commuting. Vipin was waiting at sholinganallu junction very near to CDC5(Wipro Chennai development center) at 6.40 am i reached there, after a cup of coffee, we took off towards mahabalipuram 32 kms from solingnallur junction and 58km from Chennai . We traveled through ECR road know for its beautiful views of Bay of Bengal. it is an express highway built along the coast of the Bay Of Bengal connecting Chennai to Cuddalore via Pondicherry. You can find a lot of s enic beaches on the way likes Thiiruvanamayur beach, Golden beach, Olive Beach... and many small beaches alongthe way.A bike ride along the East Coast Road is a ride to remember its gives rise to a spectacular scenic beauty with beaches
