                        Perhaps, you can attach a set of rotors to the FZ1 and provide aerial support by way of law enforcement and health care

                        Seems that the addiction of Pune riders to systematic riding is matched only by the abhorrence of Mumbai riders to it...

                        Good zeroing and grouping fire. Now I am sure that the "fire for effect" stage will be flawless.

                                For all the owls winging around at this late (for tomorrow's riders? most definitely yes, you should be fast ASLEEP and not attempting zero altitude aerobatics) hour, a heads up about some OTT perspectives about motorcycle safety here.

                                Motorcycle safety - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

                                The immediate reason for this post was the caustic and dismissive attitude projected by a colleague (yes, a caged chicken) about my helmeted, jacketed, gloved apparition on a local ride. I learned pretty late in life that one cannot reason out with a person when reason is not IN this person. So, I just let it go yet, had the concern to caution him about his own son's motorcycling attitude to which, as usual, the response was" abey bc, jo hoga so dekha jayega". At such times, I think whether it is worth it all.

                                All the best for all riders of tomorrow's trip. I wish I could be a participant as the last man, the night watchman, Colonel Slow, the snail on his Pulsar 150 (wire wheels? gaaaawd): if he is in, the cows are in their mangers chewing the cud, the stars are out and Night is warming the riders with her sequinned robe, studded with millions of diamonds and rubies and sapphires - all is well, sleep soundly, your guardian is awake and alert.

                                Will wait for the fotos of the ride. Ride hard and ride safe.
