my first bike trip

When the whole world is busy with Valentine's Day celebrations, we two (me & Shivaji), Ek Niranjans, decided to go for a road trip. Since we have to travel on bike, we restricted ourselves to a radius of 100km from Hyderabad. We choose to go to Sri Anantha Padmanabha Swamy Temple which is near Vikarabad. One of my friends(Sangameshwar) hail from vikarabad, and he is set to go U.S.A on the same day. We wanted to give him a surprise visit.We slowed drove through the lanes of Hyderabad, as usual busy with traffic, and moved towards the main road which takes to Vikarabad. I have been driving the bike for more than three years, but never had been on bike road trip(by the way i had a very big car trip), so it was fun all along.Road was good, four lanes in some parts and two lanes in most of the part.When we were about to enter vikarabad, we tried to reach Sanga, but someone in his house has said that he is in a school. Shivaji then remembered that Sanga's father works for Nagarjuna School, so we were in search of Najarguna High School. When we went inside the school campus a function (Felicitation for Mr. Nagabhushanam Garu) was going on. Shiva then remembered that Mr Nagabushanam Garu is Sanga's Father. We started to search for Sanga. We were able to find Sanga in the first row, busy taking pictures. We calmly went and said hai to him, he was very much surprised to see us in his home town. We stayed there till the function completed, met few Sanga's schoolmates,who advised us to go Kotepally Vagu also. We finished our lunch and headed towards the temple. Temple was not a big one, we had dharshan and then headed to Kotepally. Road was good with awesome surroundings. Finally we reached the Vagu, we spent sometime around and we were on our way back to Hyderabad.
