          In a short word to describe the whole experience, it was "Amazing". The spirit of Brotherhood has elevated to another level during this meet as well. Time well spent at 2133 Meters above the Sea Level. The Best Part of the whole ride for me was during the riding down the hill. It was a splendid view with Nature at it's best all around you. Group Ride to the Lake was also really good. Here are few pics which I captured during this event. Pics would speak better than words.

            Great fun, it must have been... to know biking brothers, going for rides,,,, awesome.
            'missed it due to unavoidable circumstances. Please pour in more and more pictures - the least I can do is to watch & prepare for the next one, at all cost. Hope everyone is safe & the whole event ended with the least of flaws.

            Kindly caption certain event pictures so that unfortunate souls like me who couldn't be a part of this mega-event will get an idea of what they've missed.

                Thank you

                I would like to thank all the participants of this G2G event at Kodai. It was our event and another success story. This ISG2G is getting better and better each year. It was just not riding to a destination nor it did not matter to some as long as the group meets. E.g. Vivek(Kochu) who rode all the way from Pune, but more than biking, expecting friends across the borders to show up for the event. I thank god for giving me another opportunity to be part of this group and give strength to meet them again.

                        Thanks a lot buddy. Nice photos.
                        Small correction, actually I rode to Bangalore from Mumbai in April, but Kotchu rode especially for this G2G.
                        Thanks all for the participation. Since I do not remember/know the names of all the organizers, it'll be unfair to take few names. But fantastic venue & accommodation, I was disappointed not to have rains, but enjoyed this G2G.
                        One suggestion, next time can you guys plan for few people to present their adventurous trips? It will definitely influence & also educate people travelling on 2 wheels.

                              Hi

                              It was my pleasure to be part of the organising team and I hope all enjoyed the G2G.

                              So nice to see new guys participating and I am so happy to see more familiar faces and I hope I can join with future G2G also.

                              Cheers !!
