      Yes the scan copy will be great.

      It will look unusual, being in Mumbai and Im asking for Pune Mirror at the paper stall.

        A article on the ride was printed in Sunday, 23rd Nov 2008's Pune Mirror.

        Relay means riders changed from city to city....

        or interchanging of rider and pillion.

        Pune - you are located close by. Will meet up sometime when I ride next time to Poona. I often do that on alternate Saturdays.

          @Praful: I have got the pdf file of the article. Just waiting for it to be uploaded. Will do share the link about the same as soon as its up on the net.

          The different legs were: Mumbai - Udaipur, Udaipur - Delhi, Delhi - Varanasi, Varanasi - Calcutta, Calcutta - Vizag, Vizag - Chennai, Chennai - Chitradurga, Chitradurga - Mumbai.

          Some riders rode just one leg, some rode more than one and some rode multiple legs back to back.

              We had completed the GQ strech from Drlhi to bangalore via Ahmedabad.

              I now feel GQ is a joke, atleast for the time being. From Delhi till Ahmedabad roads are fine, especially the Expressway After Jaipur.

              After Baroda the road widening is underway from 4 lane to 6 way. After surat it road is even worse. Some patches are good, but before Mumbai things are again worse, the Worst possible highway.. the Mumbai western Expressway!

              After Mumbai, even for reaching Mumbai-Pune expressway you have to travel through a very bad patch. From Pune till Belgaum roads are excellent. I suppose it's the Dream Project of GQ. But sadly after Belgaum near Dharwad a strech of 90 odd kilometres is still under construction!

                Yes that western express highway in Mumbai is always not a good place to ride.

                In mumbai wen going from panvel or from south side to north we always take the eastern express highway.

                Less traffic and less bad patches. And also short in distance too
