What happens when two mad person join together? One with a pony tail (M1) and other with, hmmm a bald head (M2)..

Saturday Evening:
M1: Machi, shall we go for a ride tomorrow?
M2: Where?
M1: Shall we ride to Coorg on Sunday and return on the same day?
M2: I will confirm with my family and let you know. (M1 is a bachelor, he can take decision on go, whereas M2 has to get approval from higher level)
M1: How about a ride just to Kolar CCD?
M2: Done!

Next Day 6AM:
M2: I am up, you want to ride longer?
M1: We will go to Kolar CCD and climb the tiny hill behind it.
M2: Are there any path?
M1: Let us make one, if nothing.
M2: All right.

9:30 AM sharp M1 joined M2. We had breakfast at our home and started the journey! Yes, we never believe in destination, we love the journey. Strict rules to wear helmet during our entire journey irrespective of whoever drives. Forget about the ride, it's M1's Thunderbird.

“I know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head.” - Into the wild

Pictures and the rest to be followed shortly...

All right after reaching the spot I had a chilled ice tea to quench my thirst. Then what, let us climb the boulders. I had 127 hours soundtrack to enjoy the spirit of ours!

Let our pictures do the talking, rather than I.
