Once the bad patch was over, nature started rejoicing too. We came across some picture perfect scenery. It was the beauty that kept us moving… wanting to see more. The ride from Dharwad to Belgaum was till now the most scenic stretch - lush green farmland, blue lakes, clear skies and a light drizzle. It was a treat to all our senses. Phil called it ‘India at its best’. It sure was. We were able to move at speeds in excess of 100 kmph on this stunning stretch and made it to the city of Belgaum by 4:00 pm. My cousin Arul took us to two Bajaj authorised showrooms. Both showrooms were open but refused to take the bike in stating time constraints and the fact that it was festival day as reasons. Phil swore to himself that he would write to bajaj complaining against the showrooms. We visited a few spare part shops but were not satisfied with the spares they presented to us. We were tired and hungry and desperately wanted to continue riding. We finally left Belgaum at 7:30 pm after getting the chain tightened and an awesome lunch or supper - call it what you may.
