    • I should have seen this thread 2 months back. Then, I wouldn't have created a havoc at home, bugging (or begging) dad for a bike. He was ready to buy me whichever bike, if I was ready to wait a single year. But I wasn't. (or I couldn't)

      Salute you Strider.

          The term "whichever" here does not include, SBKs. That goes without saying, doesn't it..?

                  • SaddleSore 1000 Accomplished

                    After months of speculation and anxiety, my Saddlesore 1000 ride in Jan 2011 has been approved by IBA.

                    The certificate is ready and I am yet to receive it from IBA office in USA

                    I am still penning down my ride experience and will be posting the few pictures on a separate thread.

                    I am super happy to be the first guy in India to complete an SaddleSore ride on a Supersport motorcycle

                    This wouldnt have happened had it not been the support, advice and well wishes of many xBhpians and friends

                    First and foremost, my fellow riders Avinash Rao and Manjunath Acharya (xBhp id - manju43in)

                    Special Thanks:

                    Sandeep Goswami aka Oldfox( for patiently putting through my questions)

                    Lastly to all the Bangalore xBhpians without their well wishes this couldnt have possible

                    Ride Safe and Sane

                    @Prashant - Breakfast is on me for the next breakfast ride

                    @kinshuk - Thanks man

                      The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                        Congratulations Ajay!
                        My happiness increased when I came to know that you are the first Indian to do a Saddlesore 1000 on a SBK in India.
                        Waiting for the log and pics.
