    Yeah they aren't too bad, I use them at work everyday! Just need to get used to them initially

      What we did was use polythene bags under/over our socks, that atleast kept our legs a bit less let.

      not very comfortable needs some getting used to for a couple of days initially...

      am using them daily for work, which includes a km long walk from the parking lot to the desk...

          i hv never been very active on the forum though hv been reading thru these forums for all kind of info on bikes, riding gears etc.

          i hv shifted to Daman recently and was thinking of riding my bike (P150) from Pune to Daman this wednesday (13-6-12). I hvnt toured a lot.. actually hvnt toured at all apart from few rides to Ranjangaon/Chakan for work. so this wud b my 1st long ride and that too on my own. I am aware of what route i should b takin (though i hv never actually gone past Talegaon on the old NH4) but wud b gr8 if any of u cud give me tips for the ride.

          Wud b awesome if anyone intends to come along - if nt till Daman, maybe till lonavala/mumbai.

          Sorry if this is posted on the wrong thread
          Hi Prakash,



          The route is very simple and roads are good. You will heavy traffic while crossing New-Mumbai and Thane, but if you avoid going in this patch during the peak hours it will be easy.


          Take breaks are regular interval; whenever you feel tired
          Try to ride at a constant speed without stressing yourself
          Ride with at least minimum safety gears - Helmet, Gloves, Jacket, knee guard
          Listen to songs to be keep your mind occupied


          Being a weekday many riders won't be available.


          Enjoy and have a safe ride

          Live to ride, ride to live

            Funny thing is that although this wud b my 1st long ride, i hv the entire riding gear with me...Hv been thinking of a doing a Pune-blore ride since i was wrking in blore (almost 3 yrs back) and was buying riding gear one by one for it. this ride will b kind of test ride for me b4 the PNQ-BLR ride which i m most likely to do this Aug.

                      I am not a wing rider once again. It is under covers and I do not want to buy a helmet so no point in checking out something I don't want.

                              The old number was 020 26352350 and new showroom number given in mail is 020 25510196

                                The question asked was where did they get the cell nos and email ids?

                                What is the point in quoting a phone number I had already mentioned it?
