Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

xBhp Delhi will be hosting the g2g somewhere in Central India in February 2015.

Location suggestions are requested.

Also, please SHARE this thread with as many xBhpians as you can, so that maximum number of people will be informed of this g2g.

Great to know that this is finally happening

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Udaipur seems to be a fantastic idea. But it will be a bit more far for members from Kerala and TN. It would be great if it happens in Maharashtra or MP. My 2 cents would be:

1. Nashik - The vineyards.
2. Shrivardhan/Diveagar - Konkan coast.
3. Mulshi - A small hill station about 50 kms from Pune.
4. Bhandardara - Another small hill station around 150 kms from Pune.

As I don't have any idea about MP roads, so can't suggest any spots from there. Also to reach MP, we'll have to get off from GQ, which will result in more time of riding.

@The Monk can we have it as sticky?

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Finally things moving on .
Ek aag lagayi nahi ki sab machal uthe [Trans: better ignore it]

Mods cant we have it as sticky so that many people can easily see it.

On personal basis I will support Udaipur but again it will require 2 complete days for south Indian Riders to come till their, which may/will be again too much endurance for some of them. @MG can you suggest some places.

I will still vote for Tadoba and Pench. @princesirohi saar, Panchmari a big no. Its not made for big biking groups. It is a good place for trekking and fun activities but again for biking G2G big no. Also lesser stay options for big group.

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Since its an AIG2G I vote for Nagpur, since its actually the geographical center of India and should be equidistant for nearly everyone( except Hyd) and yet far to have a good ride for respective cities.

Distance from some cities:
source : Zero Mile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Also being the second capital, we have quite a few options for accommodation and some sight-seeing.

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Is it really happening??Goa would be a good option..

----consecutive posts auto-merged-----

Itz gonna be a long ride for kerala riders..Sounds exciting though

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Saputara will be a good destination. Even Daman can be cost effective too and is a pretty good place. Somewhere near Navi Mumbai? Konkan Coast: Diveagar, Shrivardhan, Ganpatipule,
Rajasthan: Pali, Jaipur, Udaipur, Mt. Abu.

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Sanjoy da ready to much more miles

Yes considering Central India would be much helpful for riders of all geographical locations. And we never know our NE riding brothers who are among the most active members they would also love to enjoy it.
Location should be somewhere away from concrete jungle and bit centre to all locations.
As it is happening first time, lets consider it somewhere near Central India. Lets see what gorurab abd biru has in their suggestion list.
Tagging [MENTION=18157]beruoist[/MENTION] also.

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

I'm speaking for most of the active Kerala xBhpians here, if the first AISG2G is happening, we'll be there.

P.S : Too far will be obviously an issue but if it's planned and finalized ahead, I can assure a surprising number of Keralites will be there.

Count on me brotha...!!

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Great !! things are finally shaping to a concrete something now. Super happy and super eager to be there already.

saquib3005: As far as I'm aware of the roads in the Eastern part of our country, it would be very tough for our NE brothers to ride till even Nagpur. We need to gather some data about how many people are joining from each state so that we can have some idea about the location to be finalised. Or we can select some locations and put it up for polling. Wherever majority decides, we will have it there. People can ride or transport their rides from their base locations.

P.S.: All are my personal opinions.

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Good good let the discussion flow.

I will try my best to come. Lets hope for the best

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

Location suggestion in Central India


1) Chikaldhara

Why? A beautiful hill station in North Maharashtra with lots of twisties around that area almost bordering MP. Can also go for a wildlife safari in Melghat which is very near
Lots of stay options if we book in advance

Problems: It is off national highway and generally a stretch of 30-40km is always bad from any direction you approach. It will be not green and rivers around will have very less water although the weather will be quite pleasant

2) Pench

Why? The biggest positive of this place is its location, it is bang on NH7 and even guys from down south can reach in a day, although the same is not true for Delhi guys coz the highway is not in great shape. Other than the obvious attraction of wildlife safari the stretch between Nagour and Pench is quite beautiful to ride

Problems: Accommodation will be quite expensive. Wildlife safari might not attract everyone.

Tadoba and Nagzira are other options around that area but they don't have great stay options for large groups


A place like Chilka will also be good coz of its climate / season and location (on GQ)

Udaipur / Mount Abu are good options but it will be far off from people down south

Re: How about a pan India xbhpian's meet?

I think we should start counting members who will surely come.

This will give us an idea about how many members will be attending the g2g from which states/cities.

So we can plan it better.
