True the subject is too vast.

It was told the snatching does take a toll and do it at your own risk. These are grown up mature people and not children. They made an informed decision and i respect them and i made sure no one got hurt.

I think after few years in offroading, now you need to take a stand, wrong things are wrong & right are right.
People not only endanger & trouble themselves but others too . Wrong procedures are harmful for the group as a whole. BTW not raising the point of group discipline yet

===Thus, the slow and steady approach. We all had fun during the OTR, bonded as a group which is the most fundamental thing... to work as a team. Chapter 1 cleared. Communication was perfect and people got out safe. Slow and steady we will get them there.

I think you & your partners have had much time together, need to move on. I am atleast watching you for three & half years, directly or through net.

Why don't you join us for the next otr? I will personally call and invite you.

Thanks for the invite I shall come.

You have years of experience on DIY and stuff which we all can learn and gain knowledge.

To be frank, there will be very few people who will last with me & my undemocratic way of teaching. Oh come on I learnt this way, my mech even used to shout at me & call me a "Jyada Shana" (a learned fool) once a while.
Are people ready for that ?? Ok even they are excused for calling me Jyada Shana in the class
Apart from Jokes, people come to OTR to have fun, not for learning bush craft.

What say? And khana i will arrange... superb misal at a small corner shop hidden away from tourists in lonavala. Deal?

Hahaha, dont be surprised if you find a mobile offroad kitchen, just waiting for you at the spot, what say ??

Infact the only reason to post such threads on teambhp is that we all learn. Learning is a continuous process and there is no limit to learning. Even our instructors learnt something from us students. This thread showed team building in a fun atmosphere, all learned not to snatch, we got wonderful inputs from veterans like Arka and yourself. All in all a wonderful learning experience for all the readers. |
I like your line of thinking

Having said that, we must try to shed our hubristic attitude and just try to make people learn from our mistakes and take things in the right spirit instead of trying to put someone down. I mean if we can't have a pleasant atmosphere without taunts and sarcasm in such a small teambhp community

Time for a frank talk , can you handle this ??
# Do you expect only " Like , Wah wah , Super ,Great " etc kind of comments on this thread ??
# When you put something on a notice board, you need to digest criticism also
# Is presenting a fact of " Lack of recovery & other gear " is sarcasm ??
Frank Talk 2
# Agree that its a slow learning process etc, but when people are going to learn from the mistakes ? There seems to be no sign of it .
For example see this March 7 , 2011 . Any lessons learnt ? or we are repeating same things again ?

# People dont seem to have any difference between going to OTR & a movie, they seem to travel light. ( its a general comment, dont take it personally)
Frank Talk 3
You have invited me, alright, thanks. But Sir please look at the basic difference between our beliefs & methods of working
# My Jeep is my primary mode of transport, its not my second car . The choice is always between the LR or the Jeep.
I cant afford to neglect or break it for the sake of ' Fun " its been going on like this for past 24 yrs.
# Concept of a night stay for me is basically a quiet one, just listining to the sounds of the Jungle , be it a tent or a cave or inside a vehicle, No partying
# For me carrying equipment is mandatory inclusive of repairs. (along with recovery)
# Its a learning session for me, every time I do such trips
# Care of vehicle & coming back one piece is a priority, I cant afford breakages. See its not a cost factor alone, it consumes time & demands hard work in a DIY garage.
# I prefer small groups, 4 vehicles max with not more than eight people.
# Democracy in a group for me means = Thinking Alike, the Right way
# No ladies please, one can Walk N Talk much freely without them, remember the Jyada Sahna ??
## Call it " Holier than Thou " I ... Just love it .
