Had a really good time today! Nixw off roading!

I liked the way one of the guy from the crowd was checking out KP's bike while we were staring at him from the tree

By the way.....my bike is Red in colour

He was wondering when did this new bike come, that too with full fairing.

waiting on the pics

So guys any news on the rear tyre pressure of KPs R15? did it hold on or U guys had to keep refilling? what time did U all get back?

I really wish I cud have made it but had some other imp things to take care of and did I tell U that it wasn't until after 6pm that I got to catch up some sleep.

BTW to let everyone else know, it was 6:15am when I checked my watch and thought oh the riders must still be meeting up so I left from office immediately ripped and was at the meeting point at 6:25 but didn't find any xbhpians there. For a moment I thought oh since it was just a handful of guys so probably they might have already left still I called up Ravi and learnt that people were still on the way. I waited and waited and waited until Satish turned up on the RTR and we talked and talked and talked and it was like well past 7 when the other three bikes arrived and I guess it was past 8am when we finally left. Well I had some imp things to take care of during the day so I went home while the 4 bikes and 6 riders went ahead with the ride.

Waiting from the bunch to share the details of the ride and the pics

meeting
We had an amazing day yesterday. I asked ravikiran or kp(hydbiker) to pick me up from home which is very near to the meeting point. everyone gave me a wakeup call at 5:30. wokeup got ready and by 6:10 kp and ravikiran were at my home. I got onto the r-15 and after 4 months riding a bike really felt gooooood. ravikiran and kp followed me till the rally point.

rally point
by the time we reached the petrol pump, yaser and satish were there. since the r-15 had a bent rear mag, it was loosing out air slowly. I filled the rear upto 37 and we wasted a lot of time there chitchatting. after that we started our ride. yaser said bye bye to use and he left home.

breakfast
We went nonstop till chevella, there we had our breakfast. I ate lot of puris and two cups of coffe.
after the breakfast we checked the air again, it was down to 6psi. so found anther tyre repair shop where we filled air again and then I blasted off. I was doing some 120 and satish who was chasing me was honking like crazy. I thought some might have left behind and slowed down. the moment I was like at 30 I started feeling slight wobble. When I stopped and looked at the rear. I was actually was riding with a flat tyre. we stopped and every one came. after some close inspection we found that now the mag has two bends and the second was very huge and developed a crack.

the repair
since I was little heavy, satish took the r-15 and started riding slowly back to where we filled the air. we got to the same shop and arranged the bike on tyres since its got no center stand. then opened up the rear. ravi went ahead to get a 17" tube. It took a while and some scratches on the mag to open the tyre and put a tube into it.

journey again
after the patch-up we were like shall we go back or continue. kp and ravi assured us and hit the continue button.
we went to our off roading place. unlike earlier, it was little hot and dusty. ravikiran's michellin cirac found a lot of grip on that dusty roads and we could see him gleeming with happyness.
We found a nice place to stop and we sat down and started eating fruits. ravi and ravikiran wanted more off roading. they left to do some scouting. after a while we get a call from ravi that they found a nice place ahead. we get directions on how to manage the bike on that particularly challenging part of the terrain and we head towards that place.

after some careful riding we are at a place where there is a big baniyan tree, a small stream with ice cold water flowing.

we cross the stream and get on to the tree, play for some time and start our return journey.

while climbing the uphill I managed to struck the r-15 into the rocks and it takes me and ravi and some muscle power of ravikiran's to get it out.

lunch
we head from that place towards vikarabad and go to a dhaba where we got tasty chicken. I get a beer and ravi gets a breezer while our order is processed.

we eat till we explode.

return
now after food, I get onto ravi's zma and we head back to city. return ride is little boring. since we did like 70+ kms without even moving a little inch, when we were back at that petrol bunk, I wasnt able to feel my butt.

after this, ravi gets red bulls for all and then all the others leave and kp and me go to my place.

PS: I burned all the photos and gave them to kp. my job is over.
PPS: the log may sound boring because I cant explain the fun we had in simple english.

Hey Raghu, the write is nice and the trip deserves a seperate thread, with your write-up. Please start a new thread.

[HydBiker]

Guys, trust me, the trip was awesome... I had a great time clicking photos and enjoying the nature sitting pillion after a long time... so much that I didn't even get a thought of riding my bike until Raghu handed it over to me post lunch.

Some great photos are awaited...

R15 had only one problem while offroading.... if there are smooth stones or gravel stones (bigger than say our both palms put together) the tyres had trouble gripping them as there are no buttons on the rubber. Otherwise no issues....

It was an adventure for all of us and for the R15
