    *Mind-Boom?*
    Why I made This Thread ?

    Long story Short :

    I came Mumbai in June 2012 and its almost a year and just got to see (Vajreshwari, Virar, Maharshtra) by luck and i twas awesome.
    No luck with Lonavala, Alibaug yet. Other awesome places are still out of dreams.

    I don't want to return back to Delhi (Near August - September) without exploring the awesome places in Maharashtra.
    And that too when I got my Bike all long from Delhi to Here thinking about trips but I guess I'm Trolled*.

    Now I'm seriously frustrated sitting in my room using Pc 24x7 & just watching these blogs & awesome pics by other users.
    So
    I'm a Delhi Guy
    Age : 22
    Just Tuesday & Friday got my Classes, And Free rest of the time.
    Bike : Pulsar 220 (Good Condition)
    Have a good riding experience too
    Had done a 700+k.m. ride in near 18 hours so I can ride for a good long stretch too.

    If anyone by mistake planning xBhp trips, going Solo. I'm ever Ready to Join for weekend trips even.

    I can go alone also but I don't want to be like just go, touch and come back. Because I don't know places to explore.

    And If no one going, I'm just waiting for 1-2 tour gadgets and I have to start solo only

    I'm Ready :

    Are You ?

    @ Sird: Buddy, I guess you can also use the Mumbai Get2Gether thread for this purpose: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/xbhp-off...2g-thread.html

    But now that you've opened this thread, keep an eye on it. ok?

      [MENTION=54751]Sird[/MENTION] : good to read this ... mebbe rather a bit too late... some of the maytes from mumbai - JayD, etc. were planning a 600+ kms ride today from mumbai > chiplun [konkan] > lonavla > mumbai... chances are they've already started by now even as i am typing this @ 0450 hrs =[:-)
      nevertheless, we folks are doing a 1 day trip to sula vineyards next sunday - 2nd June - details are already posted on mumbai g2g thread - if u r free then, do join the team.
      and yes, another guy @I_Live2Ride [post # 20751 on mumbai g2g thread] is doing mumbai > pune > mumbai this evening - u may feel free to ping him, either on the thread or via pm - he is starting this evening.
      guess that is all i know of @ the moment ;-)
      but good going on this thread... there are dozens of folks around who do 'breakfast rides' every sunday to nearby places - am certain u possibly will not be boredom struck again :-)
      cheers mayte!
      ride safe!

        , another guy @I_Live2Ride [post # 20751 on mumbai g2g thread] is doing mumbai > pune > mumbai this evening - u may feel free to ping him, either on the thread or via pm - he is starting this evening.
        guess that is all i know of @ the moment ;-)
        but good going on this thread... there are dozens of folks around who do 'breakfast rides' every sunday to nearby places - am certain u possibly will not be boredom struck again :-)
        cheers mayte!
        ride safe!
        Thanks for sharing this info with other xBhp members ... Yes, I am going to Pune today but I will not be doing more than 70-80 Kmph because my bike (P180) is consuming engine oil and she heats up often .. I may take her to SVC next weekend and that's the reason I kept my name in the tentative list for the Sula Vineyard trip .... but I can come to see off you guys..!! What say?

        And as far as today's ride is concerned,

        Your location? : Mumbai
        Where's the Plan For? : Pune, to attend a friend's reception party.
        How many days of fun? : Starting Saturday (25th May) evening at 6PM, will come back on Monday morning (27th).
        Is the returning plan fixed or flexible? : Fixed
        How many people already with you? : Just me.
        How much kilometers of ride? : Approx 320km round trip
        Any idea about expenses? : Rs.700-800 approx.
        What all bikes?: P180.

        EDIT:- i'll be doing 100-110 instead of 70-80...

                Re: Trip : Mumbai To Anywhere..

                @Sird : u can accompany I_Live2Ride to pune. u may stay the night @ Prabhat Lodge, Prabhat Road, Deccan Gymkhana or Maharashtra Logde, Ferguson College Road, Deccan Gymkhana - both affordable places - google for their contact # & book a basic room for a sleep-over.
                u will find loads of good + affordable eateries around there & u will not stay hungry
                - u can ride back on Sunday morning solo :-)

                @I_Live2Ride : as already shared earlier, pls visit mahalaxmi automobiles [mr. pawar - +919821568511] [retail & legit service outlet of shreeram bajaj probiking] @ tikuji ni wadi + gladys alwares junction [off. ghodbunder road manpada junction, next to rambhia foods & opp. gaurav sweets / happy valley complex] - NO PRIOR appointment is required :-) [pls ref the map below - the red circle is the service center]
                they will fix ur ride in 1 or @ the max 2 days flat - good folks & reliable!
                n so u can be our fellowman for the sula ride instead of merely flagging us off :-)

                @devils_friend : thank you sir... happy to help.
                pls refer to #1 post of the mumbai g2g thread
                - a list of folks who are kind enuff to share their gear is available there
                - locate folks closer to where u live
                - call them up
                - request for the requisite gear
                - use the borrowed gear responsibly for the ride
                - clean up the borrowed gear & return it to the owner, once u r back from the ride [with a pinch of gratitude & thanks :-)]
                oh n btw, i am in pune rt now myself - returning to thane / mumbai tomorrow evening :-)

                i guess the above invalidates all the reasons for you guys not joining us for the sula ride ;-)

                c u guys on the road! :P

                    Boss.. guess what... don't know what happened to me I suddenly took my bike to a local mechanic next to my office in Kanjurmarg for some basic checkup a couple of minutes ago and he did a complete inspection. The bike is NOT drinking engine oil.. The level was low because the previous mechanic filled her with 1Ltr instead of 1.2Ltr.. The peculiar tic tic tic noise was coming because the previous mechanic did not tighten the spark plug. The plug was tightened by just two threads and was not fitted properly. This new guy cleaned the spark plug and tightened it properly and wholaaaaaa... the tic tic tic sound is gone.... Moreover, I ordered riding gears from ebay and it should come in a day or two....That means I am in for the Sula ride ... Cheers.....

                    Order your riding gears from ebay.. Try AXO gears instead of FOX...

                      give me ONE reason why i shudnt! ;-)
                      there can be many reasons for guys to avoid a ride... e.g. having Alzheimer's of the Ass or being scared to ride in rains etc. [as what i am & i take no shame in admitting that ;-)]
                      there are a million reasons to avoid a ride... but there is only ONE good reason to join in... & that is 'coz u WANT to :-)
                      if a guy is firm on that, all other logistics can be worked around & worked out ;-)

                      As for ur riding gear requirements, pls refer to post #20625 of the pune g2g thread, quoted below FYI pls...
                      "... [MENTION=27021]padfootmoony2006[/MENTION] : Hi pals with reference to my post above, i got some news that the AXO knee and elbow guard set isn't freely available in PUNE...I have already shipped 4-5 orders in Pune in the past 2 weeks...so incase anyone else requires the AXO set do let me know as i have it in stock with me....delivery period within 2 days from payment processing..!!! and please take note of the revised price for the AXO set....Rs.700 (Price hiked due to increased freight charges) contact me on [email protected] "
                      Surely ur elbows & knees are worth more than INR 700/-?

                      Any further excuses yet? :P
