    We had planned to stay at Drass & Srinagar, so it might be a lil risky, right?

      That's a very good surprise. Congos man.

      Now I'm thinking of tagging along with you since you will need a photographer for the occasion. Jokes apart its a lovely news.

          • I'm riding down from Mumbai to Pune on Friday, May 14th to pick up Army boots (and a few other things) and test the stability of the tail bag filled to the brim - all rolled into one trip. Plan on reaching there by 4pm and will ride back the same night with Satyen. Those that wanna ride along can ping me on 9819711782. Ditto for those who want boots for the Leh ride. PS: Riding with a tail bag, so pillion not an option! PPS: I honestly think you should try out the boots before you order them, consequently it would be better if you just tagged along!!

                Aman - Leaves on 30th, meets SpyD and then meets us at Manali on 2nd

                Unclear:
                Motor- Has shift till 3:00 AM but wants to ride immediately after that, I am hell against it!
                Inder - Not sure, when will you begin from Pune\Mumbai!
                I would suggest you Motor and Inder to leave together on 29th Morning or whatever time you amicably decide and meet us at Ahmedabad or Udaipur\Ajmer


                Can someone edit the relevant details on the first page?
