I have never done a 2000 Kms trip before and certainly nothing beyond Andhra. So I am pretty Tue, 09 Feb 2010 07:08:19 GMT Rahul Dubey http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/indiahighways/message/7571 http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/indiahighways/message/7571 On a related note - how is the Dharwad - Alnawar - Londa road now?
