    If I'm not mistaken, today's co-ordinates for the Chennai graticule is somewhere in the middle of the Bay of Bengal?!?? Good luck buddy!! Instead of leathers you'll need Scuba gear!

    • I have heard about this place but not sure how good it is to go see. Also shriharikota is close by to this place

      Pulicat Lake - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


      Also madbulls does a briyani run to Ambur, but i have no details about it. That would also be a good option as the road to there is very good!

I took the longest possible route. this was during a Fox hunt, a Radio direction finding event.it is 15 kms from kanchipuram. or why not kancipuram itself? Atleast we would get to meet ram at his hometown!
          Raghav, Pazhyaseevaram is located between Chengalpet & Kanchipuram. Its famous for Perumal Temple & placed on mound.

            • If you guys wont mind - Why not a GTG in the evening? May be like a Dinner GTG / Dhabha GTG. Last we had one when veteran tourer PraveenKM was in town.

              • Guys, There is a place called Iyyengar-Kulam near kanchipuram, where the "RUN" film & some other tamil films shooting took place...The place will be good & silent...If you make to kpm, you can just visit this along with Pazhyaseevaram.

                • I see an interesting suggestion.. Ride for food (Ambur biriyani)? Get to know how many after eating ran to loo leaving their bikes alone..
                  One needs lot of courage and tissue papers

                  Coming weekend shall plan for simple meet to discuss the on coming Horsley Hills trip. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

                    If the meets is in one of our usual location and on Sunday early morning, count me in. I hope you'll welcome people who still don't ride for Horsley hills

                          Chief! What say we meet for a dinner g2g on Thursday or Friday night AND go for a ride on Sunday? That way we get to chat about the upcoming trip at leisure (btw, where's the "usual" place??) AND then we get to ride on Sunday, which if we decide to Ambur for example, will be a good practice run (abt 175km I think) and also a chance for the noobs (myself included ) to get a feel for riding in formation as a group??

                              Usual places - Old - Cozee @ Bessy beach; Recent times - CTC, Nandambakkam. I'll be there for the meets, but not for any ride even if its just 50 Kms.
