      Hey dude, sorry for the delay. I hope you have collected all the necessary receipts and signatures besides covering the kilometers in set time.

      For more info you can go to www.ironbutt.com
      If you still have any doubts then let's take this discussion to PMs. You are always welcome.

      Good Luck!

          Thanks buddy!
          Yes, those last 100 kms mean a lot. Body and mind screaming for mercy, the excitement to complete the ride in time and then managing things in heavy city traffic is really tough.

          Wish you good luck whenever you give it a try

              Thanks bro. Dunno what next. Can't think of any such big rides atleast in rains. Now a days being so busy that am without a proper ride for months now. Want to attempt something bigger than this but may be on a better/faster machine than one five Right now the only aim in front of me is getting Leh'ed on my R one 5 next year. Wanted to do it this year only but couldn't due to some personal reasons.

              Anyways, thanks once again. Ride safe!

                        Thanks Murali. Yeah brother, it was very difficult to get through that traffic especially after a day full of riding. Though I was fast, I wasn't rash. All the moves and risks were calculated ones. Didn't want to make that ride my life's last ride

                        Btw, you from Mumbai.. Never saw you around in the Mumbai gang. Hope to meet you someday soon. Ride safe!

                        Thanks a lot bro. And yes, Best of luck for your attempt. It's quite easy actually. All you need a lill practice, patience and preparation.

                            Yup.. plenty of rides on mind but the tight schedule these days leave me with little time for rides. There was a time last year when I used to ride almost every weekend, solo or with group. But not anymore.

                            Trying hard to make both ends meet. Right now when ever I think of BIG ride, getting Leh'd is all I can think. Want to do it on this machine and after than will invest in a bigger machine which I won't use at all of serious off-roading and stuff.

                            Anyway, thanks for going through the log See you tomorrow morning!

                            Ride safe! Ride long!
