Bulletiapa Ride 2026 - Miles of Mists & Coastlines
12th December – 24th December 2026

About The Ride

IBRMC Hyderabad is up for a coastal adventure! This December we plan to cover miles along the Eastern Ghats and East coast, taking you through dense forests, mountain ghats, coastal highways, lakes, temples, and mining heartlands. Starting from Hyderabad, you'll ride into the lush tribal forests of Maredumilli, carve through the winding hill roads of Araku Valley and Ananthagiri, descend to the Bay of Bengal at Vizag and then follow the scenic coastline through Gopalpur, Chilika Lake, Puri, and Konark. The onward journey through Baleshwar Durgapur and Dhanbad offers a mix of forest roads, industrial landscapes, and long-distance touring stretches.

For a motorcyclist, the route delivers an exceptional variety of riding experiences: smooth highways, twisty ghat sections, misty valleys, coastal sea views, sunrise rides along the Odisha coast, and opportunities to encounter tribal culture, wildlife habitats, fishing villages, and iconic heritage sites such as the Konark Sun Temple.

Destinations & Highlights

1. Maredumilli - Lush Eastern Ghats forests, waterfalls, and tribal culture.
2. Araku Valley - One of South India's most picturesque hill stations, known for coffee plantations and valley views.
3. Puri - One of the four sacred Char Dham pilgrimage sites and a vibrant beach town.
4. Konark - Home to India's most iconic Sun Temple and UNESCO World Heritage Sit and the scenic Puri-Konark Marine Drive.
