An Evening Ride

Ol ye Faithful - O'Pooja at the start of the climb of Balumathi Hill, Vellore countryside


One of the 10 hairpin bends on the way to the top


Miles to go


a breathtaker on the roadside


Glazed


Going back


Mansion on the hilltop


Btw, my bike broke down on the way back

Your pic brought back so many memories of Vellore!!! :-( Those were the days the late Rev CC was my local guardian, and I used to go to his place for a week every year for the short Quaterly vacations.

Mr Keema - Wow! a local guardian in Vellore from Coimbatore or Yercaud?? really stretched the meaning of 'local'

blackestred - Yea, the lone ranger rides alone, on a steel horse i rode
