Thanks for watching brother

[@nirmalyamisra]

another great vlog, i think your strength is the shots like at 15.30, holding the video still at a frame, gives a sense of calm action, complements your voice as well. Also you are knowledgeable as well during the forest ride, that felt nice. didnt like the blurry transition at the intro though and the sound of the caption at the intro, contrasts with the rest of the calm video. Also knowing another person is in the video but not there feels odd😀

[@AshTrails]

Thanks Nirmalya. I like still shots, classic. I did a speed ramp in the intro so given the blur effect. To be honest I edited this video in a whole new software (Davinci Resolve) so you know I was kinda experimenting things like effects, color grading etc. Color grading is not up to the mark as I normally use to do in my old editing software and I need to improve it in the new software, again just experimenting things here 😄. My wife is camera shy 😄. Appreciate your feedback. Thanks again for watching.

Hi Ash, thank you bringing such a beautiful video for us. I am planning for a road trip from Bangalore to Ooty and this video do seem very helpful. I am starting out as a rider and don’t really have any riding peers, let me know if you would like me to be a part of any of your next travels. Cheers!

Bro evening till what time can we ride bike through madumalai tiger reserve and bandipur road ?

[@AshTrails]

I think till 8pm, but I will suggest crossing the forest section before dark for safety reasons, specially if you ride a bike. So cross the forest before 5 or 6 pm. Thanks for watching!!

[@rounakstanley]

Hi man. Really nice vlog. I am going on this trip tomorrow but the Mysuru expressway has been completed and 2 wheelers are banned. Which alternate route would you suggest? I heard the service road is not good as there are too many speedbreakers, etc. Thanks.

[@AshTrails]

Thanks for watching! Alternate route is through Kanakpura

[@rounakstanley]

@@AshTrails Thanks! I had taken this route today and it was good..

[@vishnuraveendran2397]

Hey I'm planning for a trip to Ooty from bangalore. How good express highway for a car drive

[@AshTrails]

The 3 lane expressway from Bangalore to Mysore is fantastic. From Mysore till Ooty you will get normal highway which is also in good condition. Thanks for watching have a nice road trip!

In checkpot they will document of bike

They didn’t stop me at the border. Perhaps they stop random vehicles and check the documents.

[@parthamajumdar8006]

E pass is required now to go to ooty from bangalore in rented bikes?

[@AshTrails]

Epass is not required for private bikes, not sure about rental bikes though. I don’t think epass is required for rental bikes either.

[@Harish-ou4dy]

nice video, which route did you take bro? can you mark the primary checkpoints so that we can also follow?

[@AshTrails]

Mysore - Gundlupete - Theppakadu - Mavanalla - Ooty. This was the route I took. After crossing KA- TN border you need to take left turn from Theppakadu. Put the navigation on map from Mysore to Ooty and you will see this route.

[@syedfaraz_06]

from which road did you travel?

[@AshTrails]

Bangalore-Mysore expressway, when 2 wheelers were allowed. If you want to go Ooty on 2 wheels the I suggest the Kanakpura road

[@rachitbansal6067]

which route should we take now as Bangalore Mysuru Expressway is closed for two wheelers now?

[@rx8010]

Bro are u going this week??

[@AshTrails]

You can take Kanakpura route and bypass Mysore or take the 2 wheeler lane next to the Mysore expressway to go via Mysore, it may take some time though. I think Kanakpura is better option.

[@AshTrails]

Vehicle related documents only. RC, DL, Insurance.

[@TheAbhilashshukla]

Nice vlog. Is there any permission required to seamlessly cross the border (especially on a 2 wheeler)? Any particular time slots during which vehicles are allowed?

[@AshTrails]

No permission required, but you need to cross Bandipur/Madumalai forest area before 5 PM as they don’t allow vehicle movement after 5. Thanks for watching

[@manipallu6011]

Will they ask for driving licence at checkpost ??

[@AshTrails]

@@manipallu6011 Normally they don’t stop vehicles at the check post but if they stop, they may ask for dl and rc.

Any kind of bike permission is required for going to Ooty from Bangalore. If yes please let me know.

[@AshTrails]

No permission required, thanks for watching!

[@adhityanarasimhan9689]

Hi..which is the best way from Ooty to Bangalore? Any restrictions while coming back to Bangalore by bike?

[@AshTrails]

Ooty-Gudalur-Bandipur-Gundlupete-Mysore (From Mysore you can either take Kanakpura route or Ramnagara route. No restrictions except the expressway from Mysore to Bangalore via Ramnagara, you can take 2 wheelers lane next to expressway if you plan Ramnagara route. Hope this helps!

[@anujitganguly]

Is there any parking problem on Ooty tourist spots?

[@AshTrails]

Some of the tourist spots do not offer parking facilities, you have to park your vehicle next to the road. Bike parking is manageable but Car parking can be difficult.

[@anujitganguly]

[@AshTrails]

Carry all vehicle related documents, DL, RC, insurance, PUC etc. Both covid vaccination certificates (soft copy) incase if they ask for it. Normally you will find cops in KA - TN border, in Madumalai forest checkpost but they normally stop 4 wheelers, not bike. They didn’t stop me in the check post but you never know.
