Adventure and Thrill but at a not-so-good risk...

Yesterday evening, we wanted to go out for a drive in our new Indica Xeta..So, we chose to take the road towards Kengeri and then enter the 'very nice' NICE (Nandhi Infrastructure Corridor) road, get something for stomach in between and come back home...

Post Kengeri, we took the left turn to enter the tolled NICE road...its an awesome privately built road for public use and have no issues in paying a mere Rs 16/- for a nice smooth pot-hole free road journey! We didnt want to take the road till Kanakapura exit as it was about to rain heavily and hence we took an exit that marked BSK Outer Ring Road (the exit point is next to PESIT college, near to my home). We happily took this exit but to our dismay, a big board after 50mtrs said 'Road Closed'!! Post this board, it was pitch dark and nothing was visible if the car headlights are not turned on...we could see some small hills ahead...So, obviously we became confused on whether to go back and join the NICE road that leads to Kanakapura exit or ask somebody and decide...

While we were thinking, two TTs (Tempo Travelers) zoomed ahead post this board towards the dark area and we waited if they will return but not...Then a car came behind us and when asked the driver, he said we can go towards the ORR exit but in between there is a mud road for some distance...Having heard this, we thought we will take chance and then we stepped on the gas towards the dark area! Giving our company was thunder, lightnings and drizzling rain...

True to what the driver said, we got a mud road just 50mtrs from the 'Road Closed' board but this was not an ordinary mud road...it was mud with stones of all sizes and adding to this was the unevenness in the road...couple of minutes on the road, given the pitch dark that surrounded us with no light except the car's headlight, we were kind of in-the-jungle atmosphere!! On either side of us were unwanted plants, small hills and pitch dark....this continued for nearly a kilometer till we found again the start of the nice road!! On one hand, it was very risky and we should not have taken this stretch at that time (now-a-days, anything can happen in city and here, its a super good deal for all baddies!!) but on the other hand (post-the road stretch) its a nice adventure and lot of thrill :-)

So dudes, please do not take this road at night times and if taken, yes, you will get super thrilled but this comes with lot of risk!!
