        Well i got a call from Sumit couple of days before the ride asking if i'd be interested in a sunday morning amby valley ride. Till saturday it was just the two of us who were game for the ride. As a matter of pure co-incidence i met Joshua, the guy with the Bullet TBird, on the previous day. A small chat and he also agreed to come along. So it was then decided that we would meet up Sumit at McD, panvel and head ahead.

        We reached the spot and I noticed that a group of riders were already there. With a slight assumption that they were xbhp mumbai i decided to wait till Sumit showed up. And then an invitation was thrown in for us to join this ride to Kashid. They say, the more the merrier. Now i know what it truly means.

        This my first xbhp group ride. Of the so many previous rides that i wanted to be a part of, it never happened due to problems at my side. This was something i dint plan for and it came as a pleasant surprise.

        I wont go into too many details of the ride, there are guys here who are pros with trip logs. I'll leave that to them. But to add whatever i can this was my experience. I've been on shorter rides with friends but not as a biking group. This experience was totally worth it.

        I had my inhibitions that i'm not a seasoned highway rider like the others and had not ridden with the guys before, so dint know how it would turn out for me. However at no point did I feel out of place riding with this group. It was easy to be a part of it and stay that way.

        The ride to the beach was fabulous. The beach was like a freedom serum. It helped me bring out all the 'masti' boiling inside of me.

        Chilling out on the hammocks, with the gang, with most of the Yam riders swearing at Yamaha for the poor after sale service, and a lot of other bike banter made the morning really fun. The ride to light house was an 'edgy' one but nevertheless something exhilerating.

        The ride back to mumbai was fast and furiously hot. We could cook a meal with that heat. The meal that we ate actually at the panvel dhaba was scrumptious.

        About the riders, all are a great bunch of guys. Winzee and Aman have a superb sense of humor. Ajinkya could not stop raving about the r15 and fz handling. The two r one fivers Ashish and Ketan are fabulous on their bikes. Every time Ketan went past a vehicle overtaking it, he made sure he gave a lot of 'oh my god' moments. Rohit, this calm dude, who'd add a dialog on the food, the light house and the heat occassionaly, was equally cool on the bike. Sumit lead the wolf pack everywhere, scavenging the roads trying to reach the beach and the fort. As for Joshua for all the while i've known him i've known him as a friend but not as a fellow rider so this ride with him was fun and a new experience.

        All in all, first xbhp group ride, first ride to alibaug, it was totally fun. Hope to be a part of more such rides. And sincerely hope you guys enjoyed having me around for this one.

        @ketan yes you've got the alias right.
        Nicely written...!!!!!!

        Cheers

                      It takes two to pull a one five out of the sand



                      Ketan tired after dragging his bike. Out of the sand i meant.

                              Thanks man. Well they had dropped Ajinkya's bike. I dint get a good shot when they dropped it. I clicked this one when they had almost got it back on its feet...or wheels actually.

                              Yea Aman's pic has come out good. Luckily my timing was right. Read your travel log and saw all the pics. Very well narrated. Mail me the pics man.
