From ordinary BHP to Team-BHP

Hi Everyone,

I am Avinash Rufus and I hail from Valparai. It is a hill station near Pollachi in Coimbatore district. I work for an IT company in Chennai. And yesterday I had received my “Team-BHP Membership APPROVED!” mail. I was spell bound to see the mail saying i am a prt of this esteemed community. I showed my wifey the mail and she was so happy for me and only she knows how happy I was, because the last time my registration was rejected I was depressed almost for two days and she couldn’t take that. I was like a kid who has got his long awaited remote controlled car! Couldn’t hold back my happiness to myself and called all my friends and informed the great news.

I grew up in the plantations amidst tractors and Mahindra Jeeps. We owned a premier padmini, Royal Enfield and Yezdi Roadking when I was a kid. Now we have a Wagon R, an Indica Vista, Accent, santro, R15 and KTM Duke.

I am very glad to be a part of this wonderful community and in fact very proud to call myself a Team BHPian. Thanks moderators for approving my membership and I will contribute my best to this community.

Hi Avinash!
Welcome to Team-BHP!
You are the 4th Chennaiite to join in this week!
I had my first 6 registrations rejected and got mine approved the 7th time.
You hail from Valparai? Great! My home town is Pollachi!
Do start ownership threads for your rides, especially your KTM Duke!

Great to know you are from pollachi.
Where did you study in pollachi. I did my schooling in Vishwadeepthi and PKD.
The KTM Duke is still in run in period. Will surely post the reviews after the first service.
