Haan dada, I am the same person. we started at 2:30 am in the night from Cool joint, who can forget that ride!

Regret, I could'nt make it out today's ride. But, the turn out (27 odd!) looks mind boggling. Waiting for more pics, folks... keep 'em coming.

Ride safe!

a short log from my side

as it happens most of the time with me, i reached the meeting place ( cool joint ) just in time. john and ninja were talking something to all the bikers at the meeting place and by the time i joined the group, i heard john say ' Oh saj, you also arrived' and i knew, i was late. everyone geared up for the ride and after some photo shoot, the ride began..

we had our first halt at the nice road entrance where some chit chatting and photo shoot continued.

nice road = bikers testing top speed on their rides>> thats what happened

next small halt on the mysore road junction!
the ride continued towards the dam and the next halt was the dam itself..
everyone parked their respective rides, and soon after that the usual chit chat started.

everyone introduced themselves and john started what he does best.. clicking pictures. i expect a lot of pictures from all the camera fellas!

time to ride back. all started back and had our breakfast on the way.. and the next stop was the NICE ROAD.. some drags, some stunts, lots of photo session, chit chat and all that continued.

manohar and i moved back to mysore road side i came back home whereas others continued to kanakpura road side..

did i forget anything? u guys add it

THis is a copy of what i posted earlier... anyways to all those who havent read it , here what my heart conveys !!

WEll .... here goes, me whole experience....

It all starts with waking up a 4:00 am... when this thing ur stomach automatically wakes u...
(nopes it isnt hunger)..but it was the sheeeer feeling that im gonna enjoy the day with a huge gang,
where i never would feeeel left out, always buzzing like busy beees during the day..
also meeeting new bhai's and 1 deee deee....:P

Im not very much of a early riser..
yet, i pulled my lazy butt outta home...
fully suited up with gear(minimal gear) ..
i hit the epty streets of bloru at 5:15 am....
took me quite a long time to do 12.7 kms....

as i reach the venue , i seee these ocean of bikes...
belive me, its my first ride of this scale...
all new faces... u have this only feeling that consoles...
that u have spoken to some online..but u really dono who the person is or u cant place em immediately...

FIne... !!! greeted almost everyone..
then waited a little longer so everyone caught up..

HIT the streets at around 6:30 i guess....

it felt really good to be responsible, and the feeeling that ur not alone anytime of the ride...
normally it will be just me and my mechanical beauty...well most of the times that is...
...the look on the rickshaw wallah's, town ppl, kids with mouth wide open in astonishment.. it was all worth it...

the glazing projectors on the 220's... the sparkling headlamps of the pulsar,
the shimmering lights of the Fz's...
the bright lights of the r15's...
the old yet still amazing lamps of teh yezdi..
simple but eye catching lamps of the zma's and the cbz's and the apache......
the soft purring exhausts of the 4 stroke's and one roar of the 2stroke..
. the amazing sights and soundss u can ever imagine....

while on the move, i just cudnt get enough of the convoy tht was
following in close formation right behind my tail... i kept looking back...

the early morning sun(looking like an orange) reminded me of how many
such sun's ive missed during me lazy mornings.

we encountered this long long stretch of road where everyone were eager
to push their bikes to the edge..
everyonce in a while, u get to see the road king slowing down considerably,
then zipping past again, ignoring pot holes , speed brakers

later on at around 8 , when we reached the venue, it took us a while to sort things out..
.and check out the beauty that mother nature has pain stakingly created for us..

our bikes lined up in a semi circular design, we decided to take pics of em with the bluish green waters
surrounding with occasional birds flying across after their early morning fresh fish breakfast....

durign the line up, two mechanical black beauties literally fell for one dove.. and ended up leaning
against her...now does the owner have to feeel proud or cry about it ?


we under went our intro session.. where amazing 25 new ppl came into my life.ppl different parts of the world.. not only as ppl
but also as those ppl who share the same interests and line of thoughts that im made up of..

breakfast at the big banyan tree was simple again... some hotels over there earned their yearly income
in a single day with us 25+ hungry souls...
it was time to move on... all the while , it was really good as some of us had opened up really well with
each other...making us no more of strangers any more..


hitting this empty yet closed of stretch on nice road paid way for more masti... stoppies , wheelie's ,
burnouts, cornering, drags, top speeeeds, testing each others bikes, u name it ,,,, we did it...!!!
hungered by the whole experience, and tired by the over head sun, we filled our tanks with some
juice and icecreams.spent some time chatting , laughing , sharing some more thoughts under the fan
spinning at its top speed which was unable to coool us of even after 20 mins...



after swapping some images taken through out the day, it was time to bid farewell to my friends who now
not only hold a place for their selves in my heart, but also are quite rich in my thoughts...




it was unable to bid farewell to one and all... but still, it never is the end .... it never will be !!!!!
our exhausts will still smoke, our hearts still crave for another G2G on the inside, yet on the outside, some are bread winners for the family...

i cant thank u all enough for giving me a wonderful time .. im very eager to do it again and again...

VRRRRRROOOOOOM VRRRRRROOOOOOM !!!!!!

I think the guy without the lid was a poser shot while test riding the bike. no big deal.

I was not there. i guess the others can confirm.
