        • I agree to motionfreak's statement for asking discounts to xBhp members.

          @kalyan : after viewing those awesome stunts I was left speechless. They were awesome.

          @Joel : Hey buddy, u too did a nice try for the wheelies. they too were awesome, considering the huge weight to that P220 of yours.

          @Ammar : Yeh toh bas ek shuruwat hai, agge agge dekho hota hai kya..

          @maypraja : I salute to you. Even with your hand broken you rode the bike till RKs and then to Lion's Point/ Amby Valley. This valor and thirst for biking is a rare scene. I am speechless to your feat.

          @all : What was the total count? 64 or 66?

BIG thanks to you man(sorry about my poor memory, can't remember people's name) But over all had loads of fun and hoping to join you guys in many more such rides. BTW I hated the heat too.
                No problem mate.. sorry was not able to ride with you till Vashi although hope Ninad was riding with you.. Heat was killing me and since I had my knee gaurds inside jeans legs were somewhat becoming numb (Time to buy those riding pants)

                  Not cool... When was the last time anyone crashed with prior knowledge about it so that you could assess it. At best one could only end up making an ass out of themselves! Thats why the name 'Accident' as against may be incident.

                    • my first ride with you guys I am surely gonna remember for sometime... Had a lot of fun... I sped off towards the end as the heat was really getting to me... Reached home and just sat under the shower for almost 30 mins and still my eyes wouldn't stop burning...

                      • Another fantastic g2g.. Everybody have thanked each other.. so i wont be taking time in that
                        anyways great job done by rony, veeraj, dk
                        superb pix so far..!! waiting for more.....

                        calvins stoppie was the highlight. Another was, since I was riding slow while returning with my friend due to his bikes run-in, came across a harley Gang 6 harleys including a Softail (which I found at AH, bought by a customer few days ago), incredible Nightrod , fatboy & others.. While seeing through my RVM, noticed a bunch of headlights which where certainly different & I got slow. They nodded & passed us. Felt like actually entering in the movie 'Wild Hogs' . NightRod FAT tyre made me go nuts

                        Anyways.. But nothing could beat the AWESOME g2g which we had..!!

                        Not many, but few pix from my side..!!

                        • The G2G was very good, we touched another new landmark with 64 bikes and around 70members (Including pillion).

                          The ride was pretty good, pretty well organised from both Mumbai and Pune side and we rode like a group even with a big group except for the last few kms to Lion's Point.

                          To Everyone
                          Members should understand that when we are riding as a group the same rule applies everywhere and more than cornering or riding fast as an individual we need to stick to group speeds even if we are doing it at 50-60. For cornering or fast riding one can anyday do it solo or go with a selected few. It was quite unfortunate that we couldn't coordinate properly for the final 10-15kms and most of the guys were riding at their own pace without following any group discipline. There are many who were on their first xBhp ride yesterday so any wrong move on any of the corners could have been fatal. Luckily nothing happened

                              completely agree with mg here.After leaving for amby there was no group riding at all.Most of them were riding on their own pace.

                              @videographer When can we except to see the amazing videos.

                                The only reason I could think for this was lack of planning ... as far as intial phase (ride from panvel to rk) was concerned everything was thoroughly planned and executed but nothing was clear what would happen next ... there were many parallel plans going on the thread as well as offline ... also regarding lion's point the time to start from rk and reach lion point was not communicated ... hence due to lack of information/communication, confusion existed in minds of many ... I had many of newbies asking me what is the next plan, when would we start the return leg, etc and I had no specific answers !

                                I know it sounds boring for many of you to time and plan the ride but when over 70 bikers are set to meet up for a big ride only good planning and communication in advance can avoid such confusions ... also the intro session would have been conducted in much better way at RK itself along with breakfast ... standing under 12 O'clock sun fully geared and giving intro is surely ragging

                                We need to work on this next time onwards !
