The Official Kolkata Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

[tehBad1]

Came back after meeting TehBad aka Jai and Javed.

I will keep mum about how good is Jai at biking,I would let others see through their own eyes on Sunday.

He really rides like a pro-biker,calculated moves,which makes him the real fast guy on the fastest Indian.Also a very good man at heart.I would always want a friend like him.

Javed is another me ,cool,composed but the one to watchout when on a bike.

I really needed this break for the young Xbhpians,they are all bound to get a taste of how real gentlemen rides.

As for me,I am glad,I can really now enjoy a real-time biking group

Jai and myself did a very fast lapping of the route that we are going to do on Sunday-tonight,but one thing I must say,the rowdy stupid traffic of Kolkata must go if the experience has to better.Twice tonight,a taxi and a AC bus,wandered into my trajectory while I was following Jai.
It was so ridiculous ,just after Jai passed,they moved in as if they didnt even bother to see in their RVMs.Now I was unknown to this route,so was following Jai from a distance,watching the way he would move.But those thick headed drivers always broke the rhythm.............Didnt had time to talk to Jai about these after our lapping was over,was getting late for home.

Anyway,it was beautiful riding with Jai,cherishing more of that for now

O_O

Such kind words from a hugely gifted rider always makes it worth my while

Thanks bro...I really do hope that some day we have more Tracks in India so that we wouldn't have to indulge in our love for riding on public roads...

There's always Coimbatore and Chennai...but to have something closer to home would be just perfect...

Here's to that dream and Here's to riding together, fast and safe!
Warmly,
Jai.

Jai had started for Farrakah couple of hours late than the group in 2005 and reached barely 30 mins late.

Ahh, those were the days...

Actually I had left about 3 hours later and had to take on some of the worst roads (I'd reduced about 80 kms on the main highway route that way) I've seen in my life with throttle pinned al the way...

And I reached just about when the other guys including Faizbhai, Gibran (pillion on that ride), Noby, Rahul (Pillion) and Joy Shome were taking off their lids...

To be fair, I was on a modded Karizma and these guys on two Yam Enticers and a Bullet 500.

Also, they were in a group and had did take a slightly longer, but smoother route to get to Farrakah...

I just took a lot of stupid risks, riding through rain and slush at an average of 100+kmph with just one water break for 350+ odd kms...and I do not recommend that to anyone...I for one would probably not repeat that stunt...

At the end of the day, it was all about completing the ride with my mates and to meet our good friend Sheel who's as good a rider as any! He road all the way from Purnea on to Farrakah on his P180 V1 (I think) and then back alone as well..

It was really a special meeting that one..

The most satisfying part was our dhaba lunch and the ride back together with everyone the same day via the route I'd taken in the first place and all of us making it back in one piece despite poor lighting, fatigue, insects galore (!) and rain (again!)...

750+ odd kms in less than 14 hours on some very patchy roads dismissed for the love of riding and the desire to meet a friend we met on an online forum...

Many other such escapades I've had with these same set of riders and few new faces later on...

Indeed..the best days of our lives...thanks to xBhp.

Cheers mate,
Hope to see you in Kol soon.
warmly,
Jai.

No problem bro, family comes first..after all, when one's working 6 days a week, it's only fair, the family asks for some of your time...

Look forward to seeing you on your ride soon..

Cheers!

Today's ride was totally awesome,we all grossed 110+ kmph within city limits,had some havoc cornering..........thanks for lining up those corners from Jai's.We all flew over the AJC Bose road fly over with Jai's P220 registering 142kmph and Javed's ZMA doing a 140kmph.............my ride only got itself till 118kmph.While Shabaz cracked a 134kmph on his R15.
Bikers present were,
Jai on his P220F
Javed on his Karizma 225
Javed's brother on his P150Dtsi
Shahbaz on his R15
Ayaz on his RTR160
Myself on my GS150R
Shahbaz and Ayaz witnessed first hand the sharp cornering Jai's capable of.Javed raised our awe level by telling,that these are rather moderate
Then we all headed towards Rajarhat in-roads,where theres bit of drag strip everywhere.Over there,Ayaz was taught by Jai,how to pull a stoppie.Shabaz did a 360 deg burnout.While myself and Javed clicked photos.
Then we headed off to DLF busstand,had some snacks got photos and left for our homes.
All youngsters like Dipanjan,Sourav,Sagar missed alot of what they really want.Our group is finally getting some power mods done to it
Anyway,this special track turismo G2G rocked !!!!!!

Jai..........dont kill me for this
But the brothers want to see,the stunts.
So I am putting up,a very short stunt video that has your wheelie on your Pulsar220F.Please don't be mad at me,you told me not to get them online,but I find with the amount of enthu prevalent in our group,its hard for anything to go wrong.So, you need not worry,my brothers know to appreciate,trust me

YouTube - Pulsar 220 wheelie

There you go SVJ n all,but only a very short one.
Most of the stunts committed by Jai that day was on my GSR.So if you people want more,request Jai to allow me to release them.Dint video-graph,the beginner wheelies pulled by Ayaz on his RTR,cause he just began that day.
