      Thank you, thank you! And yeah Sagar did a superb job as the tail. Thanks Sagar! And mind-blowing riding on the Mumbai front by everyone! It was tricky to ride with the rains + fog + HORRIBLE traffic on return but we made it to Bhandardara and back, made it in good time, made it without any crashes and we made it without losing no one. Brilliant!

        • so where are the pics buggers

          worst rains of my entire lifetime both while going & coming back.

          returning was more tricky --very heavy crosswinds --bike moving sideways all the time ---ghoti bypass--freaking awesome--saves 20-25 mins. minimum

          kasara ghat --too much rain too much fog--cruising at 10-15 kmph

          Had an awesome time though.left at 3 reached at 7.15

          • it was a great experience riding with one of the most experienced bikers of this region.

            learnt lotsa group riding and other stuff.. like indicators when you overtake, hand signalling to other riders when there is an obstacle ahead, how to maintain speed, ensuring no one is left behind, had problems with my bike also (fuel pipe cracked causing a fuel leak when the bike was standing and so i had to refuel twice when returning, ran out of cash) the whole group had to wait, and most importantly respect the other riders skills and dont act over-smart.

            Thanks to all the members for making this ride a memorable one.

                          This from someone who caught up with us while going despite our early start and who got home before us despite our early exit. And did the pillion get her wish to stand under a waterfall or was the Kasara desert unfit for such activity?

                                @Alankar: Yeps the pillion got her wish fulfilled. We found a nice place on the bad road.
