      • Guys,
        Although it has been discussed before, here is my take on what You'll need to carry.
        • Bike papers - RC Book,Insurance,Tax,NOC's,PUC, D/L
        • Spare bike key - Preferably left with another rider
        • Cash - Carry suffiecent cash besides your petrol budget. Distribute this cash evenly in your baggage rather than stockign it up in one place.
        • Riding Gear - As Usual carry your LID. Rain gear based on weather reports.Wear a jean and Light colored teeshirt and windcheaters if you dont have a proper jacket. Gloves If you have any.
        • Spares - Despite having bikes serviced before rides, Bikes are prone to behave abnormally at the wrong moment. carry Basic spares such as control cables, spare tyre tube et all.
        • Clothing- Pack Light. Carry a spare Tee + Innerware for this ride. The Jean can be reused on the second day.
        • Water - It is advised to carry your own water for the ride. Its hard when One person from the group has to carry 2 lts in his backpack and when the group runs out of water, someone or the other is invariably thirsty.


        Ride safe guys!

        EDIT - UPDATE - Deva will not be available tomorrow due to a family emergency. It is safe to count him out of the ride.

              • Guys,

                Update from Ram. His uncle met with an accident and hence, he will not be able to come tommorow.

                His PC Hard disk crashed, so he asked me to inform.

                @Sri: I'll give you a call when I start.
                Will try my best to be there by 4 30.

                          • It was one of the best rides so far had been. For the roads, climate, for the resort, for the offroading, for the green hills for the photo shoots etc. never thought the trip would be so enjoyable with the gang with high energy levels.

                            Sudarshan is going to write a trip log anyway, however, wanted to give few pointers here from the trip.

                            1. Good understanding among the gang
                            2. adhered to timelines
                            3. Quickly grasped the riding style of each other
                            4. Disciplined driving
                            5. High energy levels.

                            I Thank the entire participants (not leaving anyone) for coming forward to help me when my bike troubled few times.
