BHPian vigsom<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n Introduction<\/strong><\/p>\n Please treat this as a combo post, which comprises the following:<\/p>\n My return to the road with an 840 km drive; touches upon some health-related observations and actions<\/p>\n Showcasing some of Tamil Nadu’s beautiful roads, lined with greenery<\/p>\n Real-time update of route 4.1<\/p>\n Return to the road (Hashtag RTR)<\/strong><\/p>\n Although I resumed work-related travel in late Sep, I took it easy to return to driving – gave myself at least a month more than the recommended post-op cool-off period so as to ensure I was road-ready. An opportunity to break the shackles presented itself and I seized it. Here is a quick summary:<\/p>\n Pit stops<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Bengaluru to Trichy – one stop for tea\/ light snack at Sai Annapoorna Veg Salem Namakkal Highway.<\/p>\n This place is “manned” by women. There were only four cars there at the time I landed and we were served quickly. The food was satisfactory and the washroom was okay; rating 4 on 5. This place can get quite crowded in the mornings.<\/p>\n 2. Trichy to Erode and Erode to Bengaluru – no pit stops.<\/p>\n Health-related observations<\/strong><\/p>\n I took the journey well. However, I did feel some stiffness just below the left knee – from the place where two veins had been harvested. All I did was to move the leg around a bit and all was well. I snacked light and did not take my medication en route to prevent a potential hypoglycemic condition. However, had a proper meal and my medication post-arrival at my destination.<\/p>\n\n
