Roadtrip
To Chola Nadu and back in 10 hours. On a bike.
To those familiar with Ponniyin Selvan and Tamil History, I did the journey Vandiyadevan did (or atleast, a third of it), in one day.
Sunday I left home early in the morning, travelled across Tamil Nadu, went up to the old Chola towns of Gangaikonda cholapuram, Jayamkonda chola puram and a few other places.
Still stiff and exhausted from the travel. To PS fanatics, I have lots of news, for others, I have a lot of history to share. So keep watching this space.

Your comments will reduce drastically with this monster in place. And BTW, please change it to Vandiyathevan, not devan. Is your history going to be like another Motorcycle Diaries?

Hey like how you did a third of what Vandiyathevan did, i did a third, or half, of what you did – went till Pondicherry on bike on Sunday.
May be we all should plan long motorcycle trip around the state (or south India) sometime next year. What do you say?
And also write a Motorcycle Diaries later on
