Infact at any OTR, more than off-roading, it is being with friends, chit-chatting, light-banter, having fun is what is so priceless about these OTR's. | |||

| ![]() Khan - even with conservative driving, BLR to Pune is still under 1 day. Taking 2 days is too long. The NH4 is very good once you cross Haveri. If you all meet at Nelamangala toll booth at 6:00am sharp you will reach Rannebennur by 10:00am for a bite. Hubli is 1.5 hours from here. You should cross Belgaum by 1:30pm. Stop for lunch here. Kolhapur by 3:30pm. Satara by 5:00pm and Pune by 7:00pm max!! These are conservative estimates... 2 days is too long! You will unnecessarily spend on hotel at Hubli. Trust me on this. Just maintain 75-80 kph all the way through. This gives you 1 extra day to sort out vehicles and get your bearings. |

| ![]() Agree with GS here, you can easily do the Blr-Pune drive in a day, keeping sedate speeds. |

| ![]() See we are not planning a GQ blast, we want to reduce the fatigue and enjoy the trip as much as possible. ie if everybody can manage the time off from what they generally do. With a convoy, stops, photo shoots, etc etc it can take time or we will have to become serious highway drivers. For us its 3 full day trails plus 1600+ Kms so lil sedate wont hurt. Anyways nothing has been finalized yet and am sure it will happen only on the previous day, going by BLR boys standards ![]() |

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Guys, for a wanna be member of your gang, with my brand new Endy (yes I have seen pics of the Endy being pulled out of the muck by the crane, and I am not getting my poor baby any where close to that, until she's a little older and I'm a little bolder!), what are the options? I would love to be around, at least for part of the event, even if it's just as a spectator and to help you folks in any way I can! I am from Pune, any chance me and some friends can join for a little amateur OTR somewhere? |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() We have been getting lots of queries regarding spectators and passengers, both online and offline. A protocol will be put up for the same by afternoon after I discuss with the rest of the gang (now officially called Extreme Offroaders ![]() |
