Guys, there is a slight change in my ride plan

I am also travelling by train now..had a discussion on this with Vishwas and Rudra couple of days back..!! So, i will be in train from Pune-Agra and then will ride down from Agra - Delhi on bike..!!

Train is on 30th May afternoon and will reach Agra on 31st May afternoon..!! I will reach delhi on 31st Night..

SPONSORSHIP: chalega! Anytime. I can even dress like a chicken if its sponsored by a Livestock Company

COSGEO is coming

Arre yaar, ek plan fix kar na! Now I have to reschedule everything

Motor got a sleeping problem, so he cant reach Delhi in 2 days & he cant do it solo either, trouble.

@Satyen: what vision problem?

Vishwas, I just read Animeher's post. apparently he has a spare foot pump but he is in Pune. Would it be possible to pick it up from him? Then we'll have the requisite two?

Excuse me, I do not have a generic vision problem, it only occurs if I wear lenses which I will not be wearing. I'm sticking to my spectacles so there won't be a problem!!!!

The discussion is still at an extremely primary stage so don't get hopes too high.

@ satyen, they are willing to sponsor a solo ride but only if I am doing a solo ride. When I asked about whether they will sponsor you, the sponsors fainted.

Yes I can pick it up. (and hand it over to inder since he is also coming by train) . Can someone please pm me his number so that I can co-ordinate?

Very nice, you should have probably informed the rest of us a day before the ride
I just hope people dont douse you with fuel and burn you as a human sacrifice @ Leh!

Ask him, he was more or less confirmed....

Well lense ke saath issue hain, chashme pehene waalo ko 18 ghante riding karna bahut mushkill ho jata hain!

Well that was my polite way to letting you off the hook and avoid riding 18+15 hours. Its as much a pain to the butt as much it is to the eyes!

Avoid it! Avoid it!

NOW this seems perfect with inclusion of Cos, things look more safe

Hey you software guys, don't you know how expensive petrol is now a days? Why waste it on such a trifling reason? I propose pushing him off a cliff or something similar which dosen't involve any cost.

LOL, thank you! But I like torturing myself. It makes for a better blogging experience too. Lots more masala

Now you are talking like a 40, single & frustrated
you need a girlfriend


plz dont kill me for saying this

Yep, a girlfriend will give enough torture, not sure whether it will be blog-able though!

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Animeher, a lot still goes unblogged. I was specifically referring to blogable items

@Vishwas: Why did they faint!!

Yikesss! Saddistic fantasies of a 40 year old single man!

This is going to be one helluva ride! On second thoughts I am not disappointed of being out of this one!
With Paaji, MotorBhaabi combo, Cosgeo's habit of "sleeping" around! and now Alankar in the saddistic list, SpyD who will run away and scout for "cheap hotels" and Vishwas looking for ways to make money on the trip! Wow! Last thing we would need to know now is what is Rudras special ability\orientation


ROFLMAO! Why do I have this funny feeling that you are riding as well my friend sometime soon

you should be, DUDE

I LIKE I LIKE I LIKE...
correction: not bhabi anymore, its MotorPAPA
