  • @aargee: looks like what we were talking about yesterday is the day's hot topic.. Thanks for the info on NH1 and a sneak peek into the homebuilt dream.

    @yellowspunk : I though I made myself clear when i said, I'm open to other inputs. I posted a plan when no one had one and I take flak for that! I dont think this is any good man. I had never "finalized" anything, I was waiting for inputs, but no one responds nor have i mentioned that i'm organinsing a ride, Hell I Rode as a pillion to the meet man! I really cannot help it when I suggest one plan, No one responds, and then blames/comments why things were chaotic, AFAIK, the plans were clear to at least to those who made it. No offence taken, considering its coming from you. I had said that the vallakottai ride was mainly to talk about the upcoming ride, hence gave priority to that and had suggested that those who are interested may always move on. Sorry I couldnt shoot this as a PM. Problem with my browser. Hope this clarifies things.

    @srini: I feel bad for those scratches, Hope you get a replacement from the SVC by hook or mostly crook :P Never got to talk much with you though. We will meet up for the tuning. Hope augustine sees this :O

    @ Xinfii: Had already spoken about Gingee mate. There were 2 main problems: Not many were Interested and ambur really caught up because of the food factor involved. Agreed vallakottai has nothing, we rode there just for the heck of it. We never really wanted to do photography there and what we were really interested is in talking about the upcoming trip and about our motorcycles.

    @sunil: You could have told us about saturday morning ride! I for one would have given you guys company!

    Dont think I'll be coming for g2g's for sometime from now on.

    have fun guys!

    • @All : No one here is to be blamed. Lets stop all these. Lets concentrate on the next ride.. (planning it is)..

      @Raghav: Will miss your company in the future rides.

      Why not we have a ride in the Chennai - Kolkata highway. I was accidentally on this route yesterday while returning from Avadi. From Puzhal to Moolakadai. The roads we super cool. Very good tarmac. Will enquire to see if there is any good spots out there.

      Or even NH-205. Though the roads were small, early morning + less traffic = pleasant riding experience.

      All your suggestion are welcome.

                    @Ananth - 'bikerfas' Dinesh got his gear from abroad. He suggested 2 websites. Motorcycle Superstore - Motorcycle Accessories and Motorcycle Gear, bikerbandit.com: The Leading Bicycles Site on the Net. He would be the right person to get some information as far as i know.

                          What about Tada Falls ? its about 80 kms from chennai and on the route to khalasthi in AP.

                          been there once and its a good place. But if you are really interested to go till source of the falls then till be tiresome cos to walk in waters climb rocks etc. check the pics. But we can also decide to sit and talk in plains instead.

                          Suggestions welcome. I went there around jan 2009. Many still saying about the theft and all but AFAIK there is parking space with security check.
                          its good place.

                            Agree, Its renowned for theft . But who cares & who are gonna let their motorcycles remotely, Where chit chat plays a role of significance?

                              I'm ok. However, reading few blogs (some are quite old) have cautioned against robbery. Our idea is to chit chat closed to our loved one (bikes). Good that we were able to come up with a destination and let all have their say on this. Also, if there are any other destination, please list out, who knows, it might turn out to be an ideal Sunday retreat.
