Day 8 ( Sadashivgad to Kumta ) 77 kilometres

Celebrating New year's eve ..!
31 December 2015

Early morning start
Left quite early today at 6:20 itself .. It was dark..yet I left beacause today being the last day of the year most people are in the mood to revel . To avoid this 'traffic' decided to reach my destination early !
Don't know about others but im ecstatic today simply because I'm ending this year and about to start the new year with my beloved cycle
Yayyy...!-carried on the tradition in fact of last year as on this same date in 2014 I was out riding on the roads of Telangana



seashore 

Soon on leaving Sadashivgad i could see the coastline 
Couldn't resist the urge of going and just staring at that vast sea for some moments ( who can?)
Went on further ,had breakfast and in one go crossed Ankola
It was 10:00 am and I still had 40kms to complete.

NHAI work in progress
These 40kms were riddled with diversions and traffic ...
roadwork woes ...
Finally after 3 long hours in a vehicular dust storm- i reached Kumta at 1:00 pm
Currently I am staying with Soumya Joshi at Kumta, to whom I was referred by Ganesh Rao, who is a railways station master at Kumta
Both these contacts are courtsey of Kanitkar Kaka - thank you!

The family I'm staying with is very nice
They have a small son
Which means - masti time

The last day of the year has been fantastic for me .. Ending on a high note ...

Amogh n me
