For the uninitiated, we lost a fellow biker in Kriss due to an unfortunate accident while on a ride.

Kriss was known to many of us around the city, as well as members in other cities. He was a kind hearted and a friendly soul who was always ready to go out of his way to help a fellow member, and by doing so, endeared himself to all of us.

I know him from many phone calls, emails, SMS, and just one brief encounter, which in hindsight has left me feeling short-changed, knowing the kind of person he is.

So, I felt it was befitting to the memory of Kriss to organise a short ride here within Bangalore. It might also provide his family and friends with a small hint of what we all think of Kriss as a person and a fellow biker.

I am hoping to replicate this in other cities as well. And to that effect, I am contacting some key members in cities like Pune, Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai, and of course Hyderabad.

Let's all join in, and do this for Kriss.

1) Rossiter (Akhil) - P180 / R1.

@Rossiter: Iam confirming for the ride..kindly add my name in the confirmed riders list

@john: Kanva lake/Machanbele should be good...
Hosur road A2B may not be a good idea due to the Diwali cracker buying crowd on thier way to Sivakasi...

@all: Guys I can understand that being an extended weekend with Diwali around the corner, its hard to cancel all the plans....
But I request every Bang xbhpian to make their presence for this ride...

**Praful** · 10-13-2009, 11:11 AM

IMHO, whichever city is having this meet I would request you guys not to ride too far out.

Its better that you all gather at a place not very far from the city or even within the city if possible.

One is bound to have a pre-occupied mind at this given time, its better not to ride too much with such thoughts occupying one's head.

Just my thoughts.....

**Coplay@180** · 10-13-2009, 11:21 AM

The date of the ride has not been mentioned anywhere in the thread. or maybe my bad.
Could someone tell me when the ride is?

I agree. I think it would be a good idea to go to a temple and pay homage. Pray for his family and for his soul to have peace.

PS: I do not think we should expect any pics etc from this ride. Its about Kriss. Just have a silent prayer.
