The Official Chennai Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

[Aparajith]

ok Apar. I'm also in. My leave didn't get sanctioned. so where do we meet up?

I will meet u outside ur office(DLF IT Park) by 4:30 - 4:45 PM tomorrow. Will give u a call just before I start from my office.

@Maverick, Praful : Guys, the invites are too tempting(and scary to an extent). Let me see what can be done. Cos I already have a couple of people to meet at Bangalore and if I combine this ride with that, my brother is going to kill me. As for the bad words, I have a good arsenal of tamil, english and a few hindi words as well. Can make do with that.

You are going to be meeting people at 5AM? Apar, whats going on...

English/Tamil/Hindi will rarely work in Bangalore. Atleast for the people you would want to abuse might most probably not know any of the three languages!

also u would have to walk 5Kms approx. to reach the temple. the trekking would be less difficult than Tada. no shops there, so take extra food. also chain lock ur bike or leave it in the hut at the foot hill, they accept what ever u give, cash! if you need, i got few pic of that place.

Ananth - Thanks dude.....

yeah many many times! the roads are awesome!
check out this link
Motorcycle roads - Chennai to Kone Falls - Business Standard Motoring
but the trip might end up being unpleasant also,
the local can ruin ur day really! and sometimes water is less than tap wated!
I will prefer Tada instead of Kone

here is the link to the album. the road to kone was under construction so its bad in the pics! i hope its completed now
Picasa Web Albums - sai - kone_jan 2008
also take extra set of keys and exchange it with buddies incase u lose 1, it happened for us.
u can reach the temple easily (~5kms walk). but to reach a small pond like reservoir above the temple, u have to climb rocks for abt 200meters. risky but worth if u know swimming!
