      By saying that you have to do a 500kms ride with us before Leh, we simply want to make sure that you are a safe rider, a team player & match our riding styles. Not a big deal for you, but for us it is as we want you & us to be safe & enjoy every bit of the BIG ride, I hope you understand
      oopss... i forgot to mentioned that the diveagar trip was done in a day... from dawn to dusk

      and yes i'm a very safe rider... you won't get no stunts or useless ripping from me coz I care about my machine...

      didn't quite get what u mean by matching riding styles??

            Inder you can Add further...

            As we all have different timings & plans, we'll divide in 2 or 3 groups of 4 or 5 each. Even if we are leaving at the same time from Mumbai, we'll have to divide somewhere midway or just before the Ghat starts if we are on schedule. And then meet at Leh directly, though we'll cross each other many times on-route, we should follow our group rather than stopping or plan accordingly

                        That's what even I want to do on Day 6 and if possible save Day 7. Didn't manage to get full route details there and hence kept that as an option if I manage to find out the details when at Leh.

                            Hi KP, why dont we meet over this evening and discuss things??

                            I'm joining your team too. If we're finalising things by this weekend, we could book tickets and get going.

                            If we're looking at Jun 6, 2010 as the start date, we shud target reaching delhi by the evening of Jun 4, 2010. If this is finalized, we can book train tickets first thing in the morning on Apr 4, 2010.

                            Cheers!!!

                              It is a surprize to me in the morning that you are in the plan. I thought, when KP spoke about Adithya, I was thinking about Adithya (apacheboy) who already got leh'ed for two times. When I come to know about you, first it was a puzzle to me and then KP explained everything.

                              Good that you are also planning for the trip. Now, I have a strong urge to do the trip with all 'our' group. Hope things turn positive to me and I pray for that.
