    It was not something that media asked.. I was something that media did, the idiot report from "voice of india" channel created havoc because one of the bouncers pushed him back and his mic fell on off.. so everyone in media thought it was better to walkout and embarrass our own country and piss-off Rossi

    Thankfully, Rossi wasn't pissed off.. he was amused by the scuffle & was sent away by John so more embarrassment could be avoided coz no one had idea how long & dirty the whole thing could've got.

      As far as I have heard, after the chat session of Rossi and John, the media was asked to come forward near a line where the bouncers stood for the questions.Something happened with one of the bouncers.This media person picked up a scuffle with him and den things turned out of order.There were shouts and abuses and this made Rossi embarassed and he left the premises.

                • This was my 2nd Dhaba G2G, and I had good fun! It was great bonding with the Delhi chaps and meeting the others who had come in as well.

                  The dhaba has a great atmosphere for just hanging out and talking bikes. I missed out on meeting one or two illustrious members (Ken knows who I'm talking about )

                  As for the Expo itself, it was great fun and annoying trying to not get jostled about while looking at the pavilions. This can happen only in our country, and it's no surprise that every auto manufacturer wants a piece of the pie. Just look at the crowds that showed up!

                  • I think this issue is being taken too far. Rossi is a seasoned pro who has had his share of hostile crowds/mediapersons. Of course, it is bad that the incident happened, but one should take it as an isolated incident and let it be.

                    For that matter, I found Nicky Hayden's blog comments about his trip to India more damaging to India than what happened at the press conference.

                      • First off, I loved the xBhp stall and the guys who were manning it were simply fantastic. We were getting more eyeballs and interest than other stalls around like NID Ahmedabad and IIT Mumbai

                        Of course, the Castrol Zma was the main attraction as it was last time around as well, but there were quite a few people who were curious about what xBhp was, and the capable chaps like Dipankar and Sherry made sure that they went away with more curiosity.

                        I'd be interested to see how the AE affects our website traffic (Sunny?). I'm sure it went up by quite a bit, and a lot of it can be attributed to the excellent work done by the volunteers.

                        To all those who helped set up the stall, kudos!

                        PS: Special mention to Dipankar, who was freaking out getting the kids onto the Zma and taking pics on Sunday. RX, you're a natural with the bachha log, get married and have lots of them man

                          Arrey maalik !! Kyun marwa rahe ho!!! Yep. I was quite good with the Kids & tried my best to promote safe riding to the kids & their parents / guardians.
                          We all were very charged up when people gathered at our stall. I have met so so so many important / memorable / fantastic persons that I just can't even explain. Am sure Sherry also shares the same.

                          It was just fantastic meeting you, GD & Frank + many more others. I sincerely hope that traffic increases coz I have even told the kids that every pic will be posted on XBHP

                          THANKS TO ALL & I MEAN ALL
