    About 25 kms from the junction approximately. I think we should be back by 11 or so.

    OK, final reconfirmation before the ride..

    1) Please wear full riding gear.
    2) Carry all relevant papers.

    John, am sure you have most of the numbers of the people who are coming. If you can help me with contacting them and reconfirming their participation tomorrow, it will be great.

        My apologies for dropping out of the ride at the last moment. Due to a personal emergency, my presence at home will be necessary till about 10 A.M. Would be pointless to join you guys that late, hence decided to drop out of the ride.
        In spirit i shall be with your guys and will observe a minutes silence when you guys too will be doing the same tomorrow morning.

        We miss you Kriss...

        P.S: Akhil, could you please message me the time when the group is planning to observe a minutes silence as homage to Kriss?
        TIA.

                      Just reached home after the ride. Around 12 guys turned up, all started off from meeting point approx at 7.20 am. Led by Akhil and santa, all of us headed to manchinabele dam. Found a shady spot after some hunting around, observed a minute of silence for kriss.
                      Later discussed about lot of things under the sun, left the spot at about 10.30 am, stopped at the mysore highway for tender coconut. Everyone split from there. No snaps from myside, there was one xbhpian taking snaps, prolly he will post. It was nice to meet up with you all after a loong time, but the occassion was something that i wished hadn't arised

                        Kriss.. Will never forget you

                        Just logged on.

                        Still thinking about a week ago, when I first got the news. Anyway, we had a nice turnout of 12 people, 10 of whom rode out. It was a calm, sedate and short ride, best suited for the reason we had gathered. We spent a minute in silence at 9 AM to remember Kriss, and we spoke a bit about how we all knew Kriss.

                        And of course the accident.

                        I am glad that people who cared about a fellow biker turned up to pay respects, and to those who weren't able to make it, I'm sure you have done the same as well.

                        Kriss, you will never be forgotten.

                          I sure did pay, Akhil.

                          Sorry guys couldn't be present with you. Wasn't keeping well. My breathing trouble again tormented me causing headache, and fever.

                              Mom-Dad are furious abt me comin by bike.
                              Asking me to go back by train...

                              Started at 2 AM from Mumbai n reached Nagpur by 4 PM...

                              Will start back to Mumbai on 21st morning, yet to decide wot route to take now, as the route back home was not good.
                              Roads r pathetic..no doubt..avoid the wardha road patch..try the amravtui road..i m leavin on 21st too...mostly...PM me if you wanna ride....
