Tour of TamilNadu 2013 - Day 4, Rest - Fish - Fish - Rest - Local Loop!!!

After a very relaxed ride from Yercaud to Hogenakkal the other day, we had already gone for a recovery walk and a round of fish to get the streak started. As i had mentioned already, i had promised Venkat, Siva, Amol and Bhaskar to get them awesome fish lunch the next day. So at the end of Day 3, night we were discussing about a proper rest day on Day 4, without any inch of cycling. But the locations were simply too awesome and Venkat had Billigundlu in mind to be explored. And there came the condition from Siva, this is a casual ride with no Lycras and Jerseys. Yes on Day 4 morning, we started to Billigundlu.

It is a very nice scenic route leading to the Billigundlu with few climbs thrown in between. We went through the village of Billigundlu to see the place where the water measurement takes place in the Kaveri river. After spending a great deal of time there, where Bhaskar also joined for a photo shoot. We came back and had an awesome breakfast with great music played in the centre of the Village for the Christmas day. So i am not going to write much in this blog as we have more pictures to tell the entire story. While coming back to room, i test rode Scott Addict and threw in some short sprints to see the great bike used by Human Missile Mark Cavendish's bike in action. Siva has one awesome bike.

We came back and had an awesome lunch as promised to the friends. Enjoy the pictures and story of Day 4 folks.
