      No ride is big or small man as long as you enjoy it to the fullest!
      Remember to hydrate yourself as this can do wonders to the get rid of the feeling of body ache and tiredness. Besides a hot cup of tea neat the lonavala ghat or the cup of filter coffee @ Kamats is somethings worth trying, while basking in the new environment!

      So two more lessons:
      - Rehydrate
      - Avoid tinted visors if you plan to ride in low light conditions!

      Cheers!

          Nice trip rooki biker! And the dips in the roads They are actually 'fly unders' opposite of fly overs, where the passing vehicle should take those roads, and vehicles interested in that locality should take the main road.

Constantly writing individual replies would seem like you are spamming the thread and hence should be avoided and the multi quote feautre be used. You could do so by using these buttons to select all that you want to quote


                and then once done with selection click the quote button from the last selection

                      Nice trip bro

                      Close calls are the best way to learn,guess you can add that too in lesson learnt.

                      Maybe you can join us on march 06 in mum-pune meet at lonavala.
                      Grp rides are fun and I must tell riding with 40-50 bikers for the first time did pump huge amt of adrenaline,no matter what type of motorcyclist you are.
