  • [Planning] - Isn't it time for another ISG2G

    As the title suggests...

    2010 - Yercaud
    2011 - Munnar
    2012 - Chikmagalur
    2013 - Kodi
    2014 - ???

    Per our xBhp ritual, it's KL's turn to host it this year

    My thoughts - If we start out discussions now, we can probably hold our meet by Mar/Apr 2014

    Destination suggestions - TBD

        Aargee, in 2011 after Munnar ISG2G, we planned for a KLG2G at Wayand and it turned out to ISG2G.

        Small correction in 2013, its not Kodi, Kodai or Kodaikannal.!!

          By pronouncing Kodai with the short Tamil 'O' (as in KODI), it would means "Creepers" or vines. So that Kodaikanal could also mean "The Forest of creepers", or the Forest of vines. "The Forest of Creepers" is also thought to be the English language meaning given in 1885 during the early western habitation of the place,[5] and is still accepted.[6] They called like this with its beauty.

            No enthusiasm or is it too early to plan?

              [MENTION=26407]aargee[/MENTION] - Woah! Nice to see the discussion on Interstate already opened up. In my personal experience, organizing a meet with Summer round the corner, head count might be a challenge. KL team, if Wayanad is not the destination then we could weigh other options.

                  (SriramEfunds) Sri, personally, I prefer before Summer for 2 reasons...
                  1. Avoid riding in rain (affectionately, WET RIDE)
                  2. Complete the G2G before Leh Ladakh season, like we did in Munnar in 2011 March

                      Re: [Planning] - Isn't it time for another ISG2G

                      From my very little experience & limited memory, let's weigh the options...

                      1. Somewhere in South like Trivandrum or Kollam? And a circuit ride to Varkala/Kollam/Kovalam beach or Thenmala dam? Roads are excellent for members in KA, TN & KL
                      2. Munnar? Again???
                      3. Somwhere in Paravoor or Kalady? And a circuit ride to Malayattor towards Athirapally to Sholayar towards Valparai & then back? Roads are in excellent to bad condition for members in KA, TN & KL. Ofcourse can be done in a day easily
                      4. Sulthan Bathery? Ride through Meenangadi to Ambalayvayal or Kalpetta to Meppadi or Muthanga towards Gundulpet or towards Nagahole towards Hunsur or towards Ooty via Mudumalai to Ooty?Slightly difficult for TN guys for a day's ride, but easy for KL & KA guys

                      Any other places? Ideally KL guys should be suggesting these...KL Brothers...Where Art Thou?
                      @nagoo - It's KL

                      PS - One more reason to start off early...with Summer approaching, we will have good bargains on hotels to keep our cost low.

                        AFAIK, Yercaud was TN, Chikmangalur was KA hence it is KL to host us this time.

                              Yes we can plan that as well, sometimes after the ISG2G; let's not stop the ritual on ISG2G, especially this being the 5th year

                              I've tagged the regulars & some of them have become more than mere IDs that I'm able to recall their names & faces, but not their ID's (not an excuse though). Requesting members to tag as much members as possible who you think can attend this meet. Thanks

                              Edit - Would really be glad if some senior & respectful members like ridermax could make to this meet.
