  • Lunch at Lonavala on 18th Jan (Mumbai, Pune)

    Lonavala Ride for Lunch at Sunny's Dhaba

    What calls for this ride?
    Well, we always do not have reasons for GTG - do we? But still, the purpose of me initiating this thread: For those of you know its a repeat but for those who don't- I am relocating out of Mumbai for a better job opportunity. It's not a secret so I am sharing the company name - "Barclays Capital" and place - "Singapore". For now it's a permanent posting, so I would be going long term.

    Plan
    - Reach Panvel McD by 7:00 AM.
    - Reach Lonavala by 8:00 AM and meet guys from Pune.
    - Reach Pavna Dam by 9:00 AM...
    - Leave from Pavna by 11:30 and reach Sunny's dhaba for early lunch at arnd 12 - 12:30....
    - Leave lonavala by 3:00 pm...

    Some unsaid guidelines (just copy pasting from other GTG threads)

    Every biker should carry the following papers:
    a. Driving Licence and RC book.
    b. Insurance Policy copy, PUC Certificate (valid)

    Riding gear
    a. Helmet (ISI/DOT/ECE approved) (rider and pillion both)
    b. Full-sleeve Jacket (preferabley a riding jacket or a rainy jacket/
    windcheater)
    c. Gloves (Itz very cold out there)
    d. Full length pants (jeans or trousers.... no flesh should be seen)
    e. Boots/Shoes (no chappals or floaters)

    Riding Guidelines
    a. Stick to riding formations, do not overtake unnecessarily.
    b. Maintain safe distance (of 2seconds atleast) between the bike in front.
    c. Exchange bikes only if you feel comfortable about it.

    Most important
    Please adhere to the time decided and do not keep the whole group waiting.

                      Why whats the problem riding in the afternoon..?? If heat is the concern then the riders would feel more heat if we go to amby and come back...as then we will have to stay more in the heat..

                              But Nutrieno, therez no point going to a dhaba at daytym, it'll be really hot n boring... n what i know is that Sunny da dhaba opens around 5 PM... Not sure, but thats what i heared, so search fer another dhaba or relocate the LUNCH treat!

                              @Inder: Afternoon wont do much good to Mumbai ppl, it'll be a long run fer us n traffic will be on our HEADS that tym, make it a morning one, just like our regular Amby visits...
                              + the heat... its really HOT in this part of the world during Afternoons...

                              @MG: Lake Kamshet is a good idea... Lets do it!
