    As I have said on numerous occasions before, Lavasa is the closest thing we have to a race track and serves as the perfect platform to improve your cornering skills. If you go early in the morning, you'll pretty much have the entire stretch to yourself but the traffic does increase over the course of the day.

    More coming up..
    This is something I would love to do..
    I could have imagined it on a SBK but on P220, Very Nice!!!
    Would you like to share How to do that.?

    If ever I get a chance to come there,instead of putting my knee down would let the foot peg get scraped and someone to shoot the sparks!

    Awesome

    Awesome. Now my mind is itching to ride till lavasa just for the heck of cornering. Some amazing pics there. The first cornering pic on the Ninja is simply breath taking. Also a powerslide by Kevin of team RR is awesome. u guys truly might have enjoyed to the core. After reading the trip log i was expecting stoppie on the pep pic.

    Well, Lets make a combined Mumbai-Pune Cornering G2G (no racing though, i hope) in near future... What say?
    Sounds like a plan and i know just the place for the session- The ghat section between Poladpur and Chiplun on NH17. Biking NIRVANA!!

    I felt the same too. But never mind that. All in good fun. As long as you guys stick to safe cornering.

    The pics look tasty! I miss the ghats!
