Ok... so I'll be coming directly from office... Where does everyone want to meet up? Anyway I'll be taking the bypass till Enchakkal. From there I can either turn in to Karamana, or turn at Vizhinjam and join NH at Balaramapuram.

uhhm....the meeting point we decided right now is in front of TVS....aftr karamana.....leaving at 4.45am sharp....so everyone making for the ride expected to be there before that....

[Nio]

There is probability of more guys joining for the ride as per remy.. So the list is not a final one..
Ya you can join from anywhere you wish to or else can meet up with other guys in front of kaimanam TVS showroom and start by 4.45am

Hi, guys. I missed it! I was in EKM. Just came back yesterday, 2300. Well, have fun, although you won't be reading this till you are back!

I need some help. Please tell me where i can buy a helmet holder here in TVM. My current one broke in an overtaking incident.

And i also need to buy a shampoo for cleaning.

I really don't know any bike related shops here.

I've attatched a pic of the type of hemlet lock i need. I got it from another thread here.

Thanks a lot. Do you think ill get a balaclava too somewhere there?

[balajidiwakar]

i dont think that the vendors will even understand the word balaclava here , check out some clothes shop, they might have these monky caps which can be an alternative to balaclava....

which u want actually full face or just a skull cap type........

[Binoy]

Any updates from Nio or Arun? what time will they reach here?

I wasn't going to ask "balaclava". I just asked them, "helmet-inu agathu thalemo idunna thuni undo?" They seemed to understand it, but did not have it.

I want full face, i sweat a lot and i dont want my helmet to stink. I want to wear it on them long distances. Its not really that necessary. Won't monkey caps be woolen? Just wondering.....

[Nio]

Yeah we are back guys
Left by 5am and reached back by 9pm..
The place was just awesome.. a really beautiful place which is gifted with a nice waterfall too..
had a beautiful ride after many days.. Rode NH-7 which had been there on the wishlist for some time.. Man How I wish I had an SBK after riding there
Will post the pics tomorrow.. Now too sleepy since the excitement didn't let me sleep yesterday
