TRIP-LOG DAY-2... FULL Version! ENJOYeeee!

**DAY 2- 15th Nov '08**
PART-1 The SunRise
So We "the famous five" (Not so famous at all) Had Sweet Sweet Dreams about Kutch (Imagining things i mean) while DEEP asleep, We woke up at around 8:30 AM in the morning, unlike the scheduled plan to take-off at 4 AM in the morning... hehe! LOL!
So we had our early morning tea, Thinking of the SunRise, which may had been Sooo Awesome from this syd of the world... took bath, brushed teeths, applied some moisterising lotion n we went Off...
fer the great to be, the "tour de Kutchhh..." at around 10 Am.
PART-2 The LUNCH
As we dint had much to travel today, we were at REST, "ALAS AARELA THA..." to be precise. Only 200 kms to do today, we Ride slow n Smooth. After half an hour we realised that we had a lil money left n petrol is also very much in Demand among our machines... We started to search fer a petrol pump as well as ATMs, mind me dat are two things HARD to find in GUJRAT, specially on this Kutch Route i mean...
At around 11 AM we reached a place called Sarkhej, a well developed IT town... with ATMs n Petrol pumps as well, n we even found a NICE restaurant to "HOG IN"...
Me n Anup went to ATM (we only had cash in there! hehehe! LOL!) got some cash while others waited fer us at the Restrnt...
This was the most impractical tym of our tour as we spent a good 2 hours there...
Funny things occured here.
Anup n me was Looking fer a place to download (hope u guys get it LOL!), n I found 2 Loos in there... we went IN. Suddenly jst wen I was at REST, My peace was interrupted by a LAdy yelling n bangining outsyd the Loo...
Lady: "Arre mere bacche ko zoorke lagi hai bahar niklo"
Me (in Nirvana): "Arre I jst came in, it'll take tym"
Lady(not in peace): "Plz jaldi niklo baccha roo raha hai"
Me(angry): "ARRE I JUST GOT IN IT'LL TAKE TYM..."
Lady (yelling n banging on door Madly): "arre ye Ladies Loo hai..."
Me (scared): Silent fer a minute... "OK am gettin out"
I gets out n finds dat Anup had moved out n the Lady was In with her Kid...
Run SPIDER Run! F**K it! GO SAVE YOURSELF!
F**K a Ladies Loo inside a GENTS TOILET... wat the F?
It was past 1 PM, n Anup "wat the F? 1 PM? chal lets Leave" hehehe! DRAMATIC Mr. Abraham ! ! !
PART-3 The DESTINY
Ride to Rann was Smooth with just 2 breaks, One where Anup had a sound sleep (pics will be On soon!)
We Reached Rann cruising Smoothly at 100+ km/hr.
Awesome curves, sexy roads n mad traffic crossing us at fourth lane, DAMN SCARY...
We reached a small SALT MAKING town by the name of... Kharaghoda.
there the ROAD ended n we had the first view of those great UNENDING BARREN LANDS,
supposedly called the RANN OF KUTCHHH... F**K it looked EMPTY n GOT NO END till the HORIZON died n vanished, still NO END...
"AWESOME! WE THERE THERE AT THE RANN..."
the DESTINY was kissing our feets thru dry free flowing winds... scorching Sun n a BEAUTY Beyond the wits, Never Ever witnessed By Me or Anyone among Us, Nothing Lyk it, ever came IN OUR SIGHTS...
WAS IT THE HEAVEN? or the PLACE WHERE EVERY THING ENDSsssssssssssssssssssssssss............. jst gR8!
PART-4 The ADVENTURE STARTS HERE...
The Road ENDS at Kharaghoda (thx Cos fer reminding the name)...
n there iz Nothing Beyond it except fer the BARREN LANDS stretching across the Horizon...
Our Machines went On, we were following tyre marks n were riding on them as there was no other path to be seen. First I got scared to DRAG as my Rear tyre was going some other direction n front was following some other... MAN IT WAS DAMN SCARY! I LUV MY BIKE!
We crawled at a speed of hardly above 50 km/hr. n travelled fer more than a few 5 kms i guess n took our first PIT-STOP at Rann...
OH BABY! It was FCUKIN KRAZY... you just go 10 mts. away from the the tyre marks n the path vanishes from your eyesight... n we were a 20 mts. away. Our BABES parked here n there Lyk WE were some No-mad tribal people unaware of the modern world n the traffic, parking or watever Rules the world follows...
Our Back-packs, Helmets, gloves n Bikes were all in different direction parked scantily across the DRYLANDS Of the Rann! (Cos! Pics Plz)
We went berserk, took out our cams n started madly clicking here n there, unaware of dat nothing was there except A Horizon between one dryland n an Unending Sky... It was Insane!
Soon the MAKING of Victoria's Secret started (LOL! The only difference was dat ke Our BIKES HAD REPLACED THE REAL BABES... yes we are MAD! LOL!)
Everyone was posing with their BABES... Helmets, n FULL-ON gearsssssss! Soon the mad act went on to become some serious 2008 Calender SHOOT... (Cos! pics plz)
Here We went mad n started Dragging n Burnouts (but actually the rubber never burned only the dust followed with a Hole digged below the whizzing tyre!)
After around an hour we realised dat it was getting late n we were no-where dat was supposed to be actually EXCITING... We went DEEP in the Rann, around 30 more I guess we travelled, this tym it was FAST, Dragging madly on the Rough terrain was tough n fun at the same tym, but very risky coz we were at a place "JAHA SALA EK KUTTA BHI NAHI DIKHTA..." (but dat was good na! no dogs no accidents hehe! LOL!)
So here we are... DEEP DOWN THE RANN OF KUTCHHH...
Just as we took out second PIT-STOP, I was Loosing hopes on the Wild Asses I came to see... they were no where to be seen, just then Suddenly... "WILD ASSES..." I n Anup spotted 3 of them at the same tym, they were just a km away, ME n Artone went INSANE n CHARGED our MACHINES directly on them... hehe! SORRY (we were not supposed to do dat)
they ran madly, but we were FULL-ON... we dragged Lyk mads behind them, maintaining just a few mts. between us... Artone directly went behind n I chased them Parralel, BLOODY HELL they ran at Almost 90+ km/hr. (it was on my speedo)... suddenly they took a sharp turn n I went straight ahead (as breaking was not possible at dat speed there). I stopped n saw, "wat the F? Artone performing CORNERS behind the ASSES... NOW ARTONE N ASSES BOTH LOOKED MAD... We had chased them almost a 5 kms.
Somehow I spotted a black-dot, n assuming it was Anup n gang I went back, It was them thank GOD!
Artone came back after a few minutes after the ASSES gave him a run fer his money performing Some Bloody ASSY corners... ASSES were out of sight n Anup, Cos n Razor (standing amazed realising wat we just did), they yelled at us coz we had chased them AWAY, n these guys standing BLANK in Anger, holding their cams... HAHAHA! LOL!
NOW wat? they wanted an ASSY PHOTO SESSION... But they were gone, to infinity n beyond!
EXAUSTED n BORED we sat there n had some snacks... Bourbons n toasts with some water! Cos went back to his Biking photosession... just then we saw something coming towards Us, NAH re not the wild asses, it was a tribal village Boy on a cycle coming outa nowhere...
He directly came to us n started staring at us, as we were some DEAD ALIENS!
Anup found him interesting n he tried to start a conversation with him... AAGA-BUGAA-UUGAA... dats wat Lyk the conversation sounded to me,
A bit combination of Alien, Tribal n Gujrati languages combined. But man the boy was speaking his own n Anup was speaking something never heared off stuff...
We tried to ask him where to find wild asses, where to find sea or any water body n when we finally realised it was getting too late n SUN was going Under the Blankets, we tried to convience him to take us to the ASSES n then drop us to Kharaghoda, dat was sumthing 30-40 kms away! After some secret jhol by Anup, he got convienced n took us to the Wild Asses in the wild near the water... man this tym Spider(Me) n Artone had strict orders to go slow n stop a distance away from the Asses, we did that... Cos n Artone went from one side, Spider(me) n Razor went from the other n Anup went went solo from an Alien syd decided by his own self...
It worked, the Asses dint noticed us or maybe they thought ke we were some OTHER BLACK ASSES FROM OTHER SYD OF THE WILD... LOL!
we put our machines on rest n moved slowly on our feets... suddenly Me n Razor saw dat Anup is almost a few meters away from the Asses, Cos n Artone had made 3 Asses run on a different syd... Now the Whole Ass tribe from Anup's syd had also started to RUN, RUN, RUN LOLA RUN... WHEEEEEEEEEEEEE...!
Me n Razor started running back, I(Spider) took my ZMA, Razor went pillion with his SLR... n we started chasing the Asses at more than 120 km/hr. jst as we reached them parallal, I slowed down to stay beside them n there it was...
"THE BEST SHOTS - FULTOO NATGEO ISHTYLE... PICS, VIDEOS n A CHASE TO REMEMBER fer a LYFTYM..."
(Cos, pics plz)






PART-5 the DAY ENDS...
So nOW we had wat we wanted, wat we wame fer... But WE WERE LOST!
the boy was not ready to take us back to the village where the road starts n the confusing terrain ends... So we dropped him to his cycle (DAMN we are humans n i hate dat)
n NOW we dint knew where to go... We followed our instincts, followed traces n asked a few ppl we found on our SEARCH BACK HOME...
Finally we found 2 bikes goin towards kharaghoda n we followed...
Did some shoot on SALT DEPOSITS... Rode back almost 60 kms. n so tired we were, Cos was not even feeling well we decided to end our day here.
Got one good lodge n slept some DOSTANA style... 2 double beds n 5 CRAZY bikers... LOL! Keep guessing!


WAT AN AMAZING DESTINY...

TRIP-LOG DAY-3 16th NOV
PART-1-2-3-4-5 ...RIDE BACK HOME
Yeh All in one, coz we got up at 4 in the morning n were on our machines by 4:30 AM...
VROOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM.....
Dats how we cruised... Our average speed was almost 90 km/hr. i guess.
We covered 600+ kms. this day n in a very short tym with all Aaram-on-the-way.
Our first PIT-STOP was at a petrol pump. Our second pit-stop was fer breakfast at a dhaba, where poor Anup n guys were scolded by the manager fer sleeping on the table! LOL! But the tea n puff was too good.
The only interesting part fer today is dat we did a PIT-STOP at a garage where finally Anup n Cos had a sound sleep only to be interupptted by A GOAT... A MALE-GOAT (watever its called)
first we played with 'im n we tickled a lil n it got bloody HORNY! HORNY GOAT...
n it literally thought of you know getting "IN"... hehe! HORNY GOAT...
Bloody it started chasing us Lyk it was a professional RAPIST. HORNY GOAT...
Imagine 5 FULLY ARMOURED (GEARED) RIDERS... Running n shouting away from a HORNY GOAT... LOL! It was damn funny. HORNY GOAT...
It jumped n hopped on us on two legs with its HORNS CHARGING ON US... HORNY GOAT...
Never witnessed such an act... A HORNY ACT... HORNY GOAT... LOL!
After Surat, the Roads were damn sexy... fer certain reason me n Cos got left behind, Cos told me to keep up with them, I left n I had to Do 130+ km/hr. on my ZMA-R, to catch the rest of the guys who were almost 50-60 kms. away doing 100+ km/hr. (Even Anup's Ambition was)...
We rode straight together n man the curves were so damn sexy at 100+ km/hr. cornering became a routine with me(Spider) n Razor, sorry Artone was behind at all the corners coz I luv to drag it while cornering... (hope Anup could do them as well, the corners LOL! No offence meant)... Cos was no-where to be seen. We did stopped at a certain place n Cos came In close, but we told him to ride further n we'll catch him... HE KEPT ON...
We started but couldnt get a sight of Cos,finally we took a long halt at MANOR (almost 50 kms. away from FOUNTAIN), n called Cos, he was near n came back. We had some good Omlette n Tea there...
Started riding back n reached Fountain In bloody bad traffic conditions with neraly poor roads as well, Motor, Calvin, Shiva n others were waiting fer us there (they did a MANOR trip dat day)...
the TOUR DE KUTCH Ends here...
P.S.: Thx to Motor fer his gloves, Man you saved me from dat shitty COLD from KUTCH...Last edited by spiderweb; 11-27-2008, 04:39 PM.
