01Aug10

Started from JP Nagar RIS Junction by : 5-30am and reached cubbon park by 5:50am. Since every one were charged up hence took only 20minutes to reach Cubbon Park. To our surprise we met most of the GGI members who have not registered for the ride and they did show up so early to participate. Totally there were 41 GGI along with other BBC members fully charged to break the ice..

Started off by sharp 6-00am headed towards our 2nd pit stop which was opp to Colmbia-Asia
there we met few more bikers who joined the ride. approximatively their were around 100+ cyclist who captured the Nandhi Hills on 01 Aug 2010. Most of the visitors @ Nandhi hills were surprised to see people climbing Nandhi hills by Cycles & they were not ready to believe we have cycled up. :)

This was one of the best ride that was every organised all this was possible due to the kind of coordination that we had with BBC riders, We would thank all of you over their who did rode with us and make this ride a memorable event.


Special thanks to our Brigider Vijay for giving us a support car with medical assistant which was very helpful for taking care of our fellow biker's when he crashed and also for the kind of breakfast + Lunch arrangements that was made available. The best of all was, they dropped few cyclist from Nandhi base to MG Road. They were very very helpful in all the ways and we, from GGI group, once again thank Brigider Vijay & his group staff members.

A motorcyclist came on the opposite side and rammed
our GGI Biker Shankar and managed to get back
and rode away. Immediately we had our army
gypsy rushed with medical kit nursed and boarded
Shankar & his Cycle.




This is what Shankar wanted to say while he was
recovering from the accident.

"Hey i'm feeling better now. Would love to talk but i can't talk for long and u won't understand what i'm talking :) let me know when u'r free and i'll call

Hey thanks for all the support man. Really appreciate it a lot. Wonder what i'd have done without you guys. All i would need is more such fun rides :) and my teeth ;) will call u in a couple of days:)


One more freak accident which was due to
fault of fixing breaks in reverse pattern.
I think we need to make out our voice to
all the manufacture's to follow our Indian
standards/Indian traffic (Rear brakes on left
side and front breaks on Right side.)
