      it shudn't rain coz then all the g2g stunts and all will be a flop
      rather pray for some cloudy weather

      also,these days the hot local winds are blowing at some speed and for me,it gets difficult to drie bike above 60kmph because of the gr8 heating effect that wind produces.
      so,take all necessary precautions b'fore starting!

                          yup ur right rain is around there at that time but u know bunny thats what i like most rain in hills although riding is very dangerous but i will take that risk and the biggest assest of this trip is that the person who is organizing all this is going for this same trip from last 7 years can u believe that!!!

                          Organizer name is bitto he is a bullet mechanic and working for lamba motors jail road delhi so no problem if bike breaks down no fear at all ++++++ so much positive things about this trip..

                          If any one want to join plz let me know...

                          About the party man if that idea clicked belive me we all r going to have a blast..... i love that place and hope u all gona enjoy that toooo

                            i have to do a kind of longer trip on the june 9th ... have to go to this camp on the rivers tons ... about 150 kms from mussoorie ... will be driving down from meerut. distance one way is around 400-450 kms. i was planning to leave at around 5 am ... or what i could do is break journey for a night at mussoorie and then push on to camp the next day. but all the places in mussoorie seemed to be booked to the fullest. so guess will have to do it in one day. riding time willbe around 12 hours ... wonder how i'm gonna survive the heat ...

                              Dont worry man...Take my word for it, if you are a healthy man, you wouldnt fall sick if you keep drinking water everytime you feel thirsty. Three or four hundered kilometers in a day wouldnt cause any problems if you keep having enough water.
                              Cmon!! Be a man (kiddin!) i have been on a Delhi-Agra-Delhi ride ( all in one day within 5hrs) wid my grl on the pillions seat in 47degree celcius last year and all we did was had enough water, thats it!
                              But yes..what matters is...are u used to the heat or not? if u are used to sit in an a/c all day longggg....then you may wanna reconsider your idea of drivin fr long in summers.
                              All da best fr yer trip n drink enough!
