    • found this funny too


      A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

      Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

            Anup Wazup man.We all know you.You are riding the oldest bike in our group.How can we forget that lol.Chal lets ride to malshej, or other wize meet us at motocafe pune.


            This chap can describe Everything Brilliantly.(10hut)


            We have all sorts of riders in our group and you will always end up with a handful of riders chiming in for a ride whatever the nature of the ride..
            As vishwas says there are 5 kinds of riders in our fraternity
            1. Rippers, love the quickblast onto the highway. A mad dash on NH4 towards vai,mahabaleshwar is the most sought after activity by these self proclaimed high speed morons.. This kind of riding often is a quest to boasting three digit figures at breakfast tables and nothing more.
            2. Cornering Junkies, may go slow on the straights but will always try to be MotoGP racers in the corners..lavasa and aamby are likend to isle of man and mullholland highway by these riders. Such is the insanity of this bunch. Breakfast talks boil down to sharing knowledge about which corners had oil spills and how you felt on top of yourself this fine morning.The reality is that everyone is shitting their pants and blaming it on the tyre traction and paved/unpaved roads. If you want to have a false sense of being good at riding you have to embrace this category of riders.
            3. Tourers. Question...why would anyone tour ? These guys have insane departure times, the likes of 3 am and they find a ride in summer at 12 noon exciting. There are no breakfast talks here cause there are no breakfasts at all. These riders feed on bugs and flies cruising innocently into their mouths at a mere speed of............................... 80 kmph !! Everytime I have toured on a motorcycle I have felt like a taxi driver.
            4. Off roaders !! Wanna thrash your bike ?? You cannot better an offroader at this. Theres no better way to burn money than thrashing your baby on roads I wouldnt ride a bulldozer on. While the rest of the world is working out ways to increase tyre traction these bunch of riders love it when they have none at all. You also go tumbling down a valley only to be loud enough to ruin a fishermans 3 hour catch ! The world hates you if you are an offroader..ok thats not true but the fishermen sure do.
            5. Confused riders..these riders love the quickblasts on the highway and love offroading too. There are days when they love cornering and touring too. They are confused ! They tend to attend all rides and make their presence and sweaty odours felt at every ride. These guys smell of sweat all the time. They are always returning from some ride.
            Rides being suggested will more or less fall under the above 5 categories and whaterver the case be you will always end up with enough riders.
            Good Observation............

                  • How to do cornerings

                    Guys as i am nw to Xbhp & touring world, I am very eager to know How you guys corners in the ghats?
                    When I was with you guys to the g2g at amby, I had seen many people leaning down like motogp racers . n it looked so amazing & from that time I got mad about cornerings.

                    So guys I just want to know what are the basic techqniue to start practising corners.

                    I.e

                    1) wat asould be the acceleration at that time?
                    2) On which Gear it is adivisible for a new rider for the practising on the corners?
                    3)WhT SHOULD be the speed for practising?

                    I tried googling for the technique but failed to understand.

                    So can you people help me to explain the simple tech for cornering (practising Has i am new).

                    I own p220dtsi ( No Mods down to engine or tyres)
                    Who needs a stereo when you've got a throttle ? ( Time to turn up the volume.)

                          not ignoring rules, just asking for seniors permission as I promise I'll ride straight & responsibly, no cornering at all

                          Depends on the Riders, at what speed he is comfortable in.

                          2) On which Gear it is adivisible for a new rider for the practising on the corners?
                          Again depends.
                          3)WhT SHOULD be the speed for practising?
                          Again depends. Come to the next g2g & we'll do a full cornering session

                          So can you people help me to explain the simple tech for cornering (practising Has i am new).
