So i havent any idea and neither do the instructors, eitherways just going over to chill and have some fun, off-season can be boring
    hey killer it'll be great to meet you and joel in person...im registered (#50) as well.

        Yes would have definetly, if you would have given me all the details accurately. You must have got an SMS from ARE.

        Also, you will not be allowed to ride with windcheater, i would suggest you to arrange for some Jacket.

              I think may be true in bikes less than 250cc bikes this decade.

              I may not be correct but what i feel is
              The TVS have bottom up approach say building up a bike and adding up features in every new version.
              Yamaha india has top down approach which from the already developed super bike technologies reduced to indian needs for their bikes.
              so may be for some time yamaha will be more reliable than TVS, and TVS has to work a lot to catch up with any Japanese manufacturer

                • ^ Yup , other than a couple of harmless falls all went well, the stunt guys displayed their skills and some ARE participants displayed good riding skills as well. Had fun watching the event unfold over the course of the day. A number of riders who managed the best laptimes won a sponsored ride for an Apache race scheduled at the chennai track and the end of the month. Joel was one of them and came in 3rd overall with a 43 sec flat laptime, a couple of other talented riders managed 42's. There was a lot of dirt all over the track, due to this proper circuit riding techniques couldnt be followed and more of a motard style of riding was required, the instructors weren't too happy with this so didnt push too hard. Anyways i'm sure the participants learnt a thing or 2 under the guidance of the instructors so it was all good. The race track would be the right place to hold further such events though, in my opinion.

                              • I was hoping for some new insights into the Menace with the ARE. But ARE has come and gone and no news of the Menace yet.
