The Official Cochin Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

[kochumvk]

Sorry I missed out on the last meet at Food Circle. Had to catch my bus that night and I was JIT as always.

Nice to see the plan for the Aug 15 ride. Unfortunately I cant make it for a whole day ride but I will probably ride with you guys for a while and turn back (if I can get up that early).

Why dont you guys cut down the distance a bit? If you guys get held up anywhere (puncture / photoshoots etc) you will end up reaching pretty late. Plus you guys have to take into consideration that you are starting extremely early which means you wil be down on sleep as well.

Any pre-ride quickie ride happening this sunday ?

Its a relaxed ride this time.
Is it too long buddy?
just 350 in a day.

350 a day?...that is fruit cake! :P

350 a day?...that is fruit cake! :P

But i think starting at 5AM is insane

[praveenmemala]

shall we...?

We re starting in the early morning because we need to cover the first 100 kms in the morning itself. And then we can a have a relaxed ride for the next 150 kilometres. With enough breaks... Then the next 100 kilometre will be the ride towards cochin... If cochin guys have the half potential than they have shown for the salem ride, I think Renjith is correct. It ll be a fruit cake...

After your Yercaud ride, a 350 km G2G for you guys will be like a short jog in the park !

Actually I was concerned less about the distance and more about the time. A ride with you guys starting at 5 AM and returing roughly between 7 - 8 PM will be exhausting.

what does every one think?is 350 too much?

But i think starting at 5AM is insane

ive got used to getting up at those times for rides!

taking 50Kms off is like taking a bucket of water off the ocean!

[praveenmemala]

i am not used with early mornings

me too have not got the habit of waking at 5 in the morning regularly. But for a ride, i can wait sleepless all the night...

@silentknight: its happy to hear that. I think you can try to reach vytila at 5. Just have a try...

Thats what i'm afraid of ..... i'll get too anxious and i'll stay up all night ... anyway i'll manage somehow ..

[praveenmemala]

any g2g?

i request the leaders to inform g2gs atleast before 2 days.
@anyone have not checked tvm thread these days. They re planning to join us. I think we can wait till their next g2g. If they re coming, we may have to plan the timings after talking to them. Right? But lijo is the only interested one. This points that as he is the one interested he may ride solo even

You always had the spirit. This is the time for you to join us. Lets make a cool ride.

@ Praveen
Let them decide and come up with their opinions. It is always nice to have tvm buddies.

now 10 more days to go...

OT:
@ Praveen, after you said about the efficiency part I decided to check it again:

Result :39.96 kmpl for a mixed ride. I am happy now.
