    Those people who tell you not to take chances
    They are all missing on what life is about
    You only live once so take hold of the chance
    Don't end up like others the same song and dance

      • my 180...oops 200 ahem!
        gives me around 450kms-500kms for a full tank(considering 45km/ltr...which costs me approx. 900 bucks (speed)...so thats the petrol cost accordingly.

        • Regarding stay...

          This is regarding accommodation at Ganpatipule..

          As I mentioned, I am trying to contact that friend of my father...but still no success... Meanwhile..I found a hotel/lodge at Ganpatipule..Called as Atithi Lodge.. Rates are quite affordable..Rs. 300 per room for 2 people.. That means Rs. 150 per person.. Now I think that's quite low..
          Hotel looked good.. with spacious rooms..

          Only prob is I am not getting the correct contact number of that lodge.. I got one number but it connects to some other person. I m trying though...

          DK.. any progress from ur end..?

          Guys let's try to keep the accommodation costs at minimum so that we can use that extra money somewher else for better coz..

          • [quote=SandycoreBiker;186629]@Mastermind: I think you gonna have most awesome ride amongst us. Aquila would be a perfect companion for 1000+ kms. Bring it on man!!



            Thanks guys for welcoming me ,Who do I contact for finalising things...........do let me know .. as for my driving experience I have been riding bike daily for 45...50 kms all weather ...rain or shine .15 years
            I have not ridden a bike more than 100 km in a day but I drive a car 850 plus km in a day twice or thrice a year ......will this much experience be enough or should I come for a smaller ride first & then venture for long rides.
            I do not have a jacket ,so is it ok to ride without one or I have to buy one..pl inform..
            also wont the jacket be very hot during summer.......
            I have just bought the Aquila ....its in a good condition but does any body know a thing or two if it conks out as we all know its hard to find spares in mumbai so in Ganpatipule it may be hard to find a mechanic...
            These were some queries that I had in mind so pleeeeeeease reply soon so I can schedule myself accordingly .also some of you guys give me ur cell nos so I can talk personally . ....my no is 9821185081 and the name is Deepak.........

              OK Sir Crap is everywhere these days....
              Its so damn hot..If you would have noticed today weather the air was very warm (LOO) it has never occurred in Mumbai before..temperature abnormally high...

              IMP: AVOID RIDING IN SUCH CONDITIONS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE CAUSE ITS NOT GOOD FOR THE BODY..LEAVE VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING AND TRY NOT TO RIDE BETWEEN 11-4pm..

              i wont be coming for any ride till the weather becomes normal.I JUST CAME BACK FROM A LONG RIDE..THE WHOLE OF KERALA IN 5 DAYS SO I AM CALM AND SETTLED FOR SOMETIME NOW

              Ganpatipule the MTDC resorts are very expensive, afaik the rates are close to 2500 - 5000 rs for a AC tent. Call MTDC and check.



              Enjoy and take care....try not to meet with any accidents...

                In that case i feel early morning 4:00am ka time fix karna hoga but then if we do that i know all will gun me down.

                well i know anup it's damn hot humidity level has gone high but very soon it's will rain somewhere closeby and i think by 10th things should be normal..we will try to make most of it early morning with limited stops...

                why are you not coming..ajana na

                • Am out... Sorry guys!

                  Reason:
                  Rising temp, cant take it! Yesterday was in Pune, n almost got dehydrated+burned+died+lost!
                  another reason to add is cash, lots of management needed for this month. But am still ok with shorter rides, within 200 kms. (total 400) something like a chill-out overnight trip to DAMAN!

                            MET has predicted this week especially tomorrow to be the hottest day this month, so guys get out your sunscreen and sunglasses .
                            On a more serious note keep ur bike tanks covered with a cotton cloth and keep your babes parked in shades wherever possible, also keep a check on engine seals, as they are prone to get overheated and spill oil this season.
