The Official Trivandrum Offline meet(G2G) thread

good news for me. by sharing i meant letting others ride my bike while i ride theirs.any way riding my bike with a piliion for long distances is way out of question. even i walk like a robot after riding nonstop for an hour or so. after the pathanamthitta trip i had neck pain for two days. my bikes riding position is a bit non suited for long trips. but i am learning to cope with it.looking forward to a good trip.

yeah...i agree man....even after me riding the r15...its got a bit of getting accustomed to...and long rides is a pain in the ass if its a bumpy 1...without any stops... anyways...meet you soon...

yup sure...why not.. i ve alwayz loved riding R15 ... dont know why...
And your another constraint, drinking and driving...all of us are against it though some of em drink but not mixing it with driving.
btw you should meet our member goati(ganesh) this year year when he comes to tvm. He have ridden his R15 non stop from calicut to tvm and back a couple of times. I think it ll be good for you to train under him.
And we are planning a drive to tirunelveli this weekend, ie, 16th jan. i have missed the previous ride to the same place by arun lijo n nio last month badly , so i have made up myself free and do it at any cost .I dont know how many wil be there for it , but as of now the people coming are me , easow, lijo , remy(confirmed??).

Returned yesterday evening from the palaruvi ride... on the there was heavy rain in some places, but managed with consecutive stopping intervals... but the return trip was super... the roads were awesome... on the return we took the palode root and i liked those roads very much...

well i think i am mis under stood here. by sharing and stuff i meant i am not keen on letting others ride my bike. any way lets drop this subject and think about the trip. 99% i will be coming unless something goes wrong. my front tyre was loosing air . the puncture was sealed. but today the air seem to be leaking again. i am not sure though. any way i hope it is not going to be an issue.

[B][I]While talking about all this, Rossi walked up to the FZ16 that was displayed on stage and touched some metal near the wheel. John Abraham explained it as the “Sari Guard” that is mandatory to have on bikes in our country for women to sit pillion. That seemed to amuse Rossi quite a bit.

There were four bikes kept on stage, the FZ16, the V-Max, the 2010 R1 and the R15. Valentino Rossi was asked to choose one amongst the four. Rossi quickly got up and sat on the R15. “I want one of these for me” he told the Yamaha officials!

@Nio... can you retrace the route we took on our ^ ride in gmaps and send it to me? I'm totally confused...coz I dont remember we crossing Ambasamudram.... and the route on the map shows only that route....

thats because asked the route but didn't touch proper ambasamudram to have breakfast from Tirunelveli. The auto driver said there are no good hotels on that stretch and roads are not so good. So we went tirunelveli and then to ambasamudram(another road most probably) Remember we riding through some farm side roads and entered a small township with very narrow roads? Then to paapanasam and KMTR forest range.
