              yeah i remember that ride.. 07 GSXR1000 and 06 R1 with 20+ Mumbai-Pune riders riding down the AMBY fog. It was somewhere around the same time last year.. let's do this again this time.

                • Yeah, I'll keep you guys posted. I've missed out on meeting MG the last 2 times he was here, and again last weekend when I was there. I have work in Pune soon, so am planning to convert it to a working ride, sort of like a working lunch

                  Now that the One is singing, I can't wait to crunch down the kilometres.

                  OT:Where is stewarch anyway?

                            I have to run the valves in, until they are seated properly, which means no shenanigans for the next 2k or so. It's been a long time coming, I don't have to repeat whatever's happened, but the end result has been positive. The work was carried out beautifully, despite it being long and way overdue. It is absolutely top notch.

                            I also love the new CF parts on Phwoar, and it adds a touch of stealth-ishness to the bike IMO. I'll get some photos in the morning and post up.

                            Wonderful news there!! Now when can Phwoar and BumbleBee and all xBhpians in Bangalore meet?
