Re: Rajmachi Softroading Trip March 11th

Friends,

Rajmachi will be cake walk in this season. Honestly an Innova can finish the trail in current condition.

if you all are ok then we can finalize some other venue which will be good for offroading and it wont damage any of our vehicles unless you really want to damage it.

It will be fun for Gypsy and Jeep owners too. Rajmachi will be too boring for Jeep and Gypsy owners.

Re: Rajmachi Softroading Trip March 11th

pdev29, suggestions are welcome - although this started out more as a softroading trip to get our babies just a little exercised before we venture into the real stuff. And of course, some exciting pictures, and good food. I'd go with Rajmachi unless everyone agrees there's a better alternative for softroading, great pics, and no car damage We have a lot of time to decide, so concrete suggestions welcome.

Re: Rajmachi Softroading Trip March 11th

We already have an Endy, 2 Safaris, 2 Fortuners, a Gypsy, a Pajero or a Mahindra Classic and 3 bikes confirmed. Another bike, Scorpio and Fortuner tentative. That'll make for an impressive photoshoot - remember the 5 biggies at Pavana?

Anyone with a Cayenne? How about a Santa Fe or Xtrail? Would love to see some of them around...

Re: Rajmachi Softroading Trip March 11th

Would want to come on this trip. Mostly I should be in Pune on that weekend, if I am, I am definitely in! But share the same problem as @mikon - much as I would like to bring the Vento, doubt if it'll return in one piece!

Keeping myself in the tentative list - but asking out aloud - are there spots left in the biggies?

The Pune SUVs are filling up (assuming not more than 3-4 per SUV at Rajmachi), but the Mumbai ones are still open. You could pile into one of the Pune trucks, and then switch to one of the Mumbai trucks, once we reach Rajmachi slopes. Don't worry, we will figure something out

I am also still tentative, but if some us move to confirmed then may have to sacrifice a photographer. hint hint!
Monaro, if I join I will have to ask for a lift from/ to my place to the general meeting point.

OT: Hi Turboholic, no not the Roadshakers.

We are a small band of 500 riders who call ourselves the MERLINS.

Throttle King (Sagar) here, another 500 rider buddy of ours called Adil (not yet here at Team BHP), and myself are the founding fathers so to speak!
