Okay, so i guess, we should zero on, a drive on ggn-fbd, route followed by breakfast at manesar, Mc.D or haldirams.

By the way , Manesar is not that horrible as its projected on Sundays. There wont be much traffic.

MCD can be a good venue too. Roads till MCD is good to drive + the GRG Eway.

Agreed sir, Road upto manesar is good and on sunday, there will be hardly any traffic. Nevertheless, see ya next time.

1. Murthal
2. Manesar
3. any other place in the city?

Btw what about a drive to the taj? Am yet to explore the yamuna expressway. Just a wild idea.

Okay, let's finalize on manesar vala plan. Will work for most of the junta. And regarding, drive to taj, Well that's really a WILD idea, lol

___________________________________________

Okay guys, So plan is done. Now, Question is, Is everyone here okay, with 70kms drive on ggn-fbd road then lunch, Or we should cut short it and take a U turn in between, then drive to manesar for breakfast ?

What say ?

And being a sunday morning, I doubt speed interceptors will be there and we can surely get some good space to click some photos of our rides too, Sounds like a plan, No ?

So Sunday, 9'o clock, Near starting point of ggn-fbd road, we will catch up, then drive. Then breakfast, which we can decide there itself too.

I am posting the current list, Please add your name and update the list :

Confirmed:

1- sameerg001

2- drmohitg

3- samarth

4- abhishekb86 ( mostly in )

5- newtonmeter

6- marcussantiago

We are going together, aren't we ?

But will post the location on map, for everyone's reference.

samarth.bhatia · 19th March 2013, 14:08

Proposed Plan:

Starting from Mahipalpur (NH 8) side (Point A), I have put a link to G-Maps below.

We meet up at Alaknanda Market - Point B on Google maps image
Timing can be between 7 and 8 am as per everyone's comfort.

We travel to Tughlakabad fort - Point C (about 2 kms) - Photosession with the nice fort in the backdrop

We head to Faridabad side of FBD-GGN toll road (Point D)
We reach Cyber City, Gurgaon (Point E)

Then we can head to 32nd milestone for go-karting/eating session

All in favour, yell out to Sameer :P

I am okay with everything but 32nd milestone, I'll skip that. Let's first of all invite everyone and then see what they want to do instead of sketching out an itinerary. Otherwise as always there'll just be 3-4 of us

Maybe a shout out on the VK meet thread might get us more responses.

I agree. Let's put a link on VK. 32nd milestone is only a suggestion.
I hope the others respond soon.

That I will let you know, Going by the response, I doubt the happening of meet, well no worry, I am creating a backup plan, lol

Deeps · 22nd March 2013, 17:10

I can confirm my participation for Sunday morning as long as its in South Delhi or closer to Noida

I would also suggest that people who have confirmed should get on the organisers' phone/whatsapp so that in case a less elaborate PlanB needs to be implemented at short notice, the word can spread quickly. What say?

Well, I have most of them on whatsapp/fb. We have our group both on fb and whatsapp.

The drive meet now looks like a distant dream, as there is hardly any response for the same. We are thinking on catching up in south delhi, but that will be in the evening probably.

samarth.bhatia · 23rd March 2013, 09:06

Is it just me, or have morning meets sort of lost out on the popularity?
I read the thread on the recent Bangalore BHPians meet. 40 BHPians turned up, with something like 27 cars and 6 bikes.
Similar story with Bombay meets.

Delhi BHPians are facing a hazy lazy mind set, as often :P

Sameer, how about we make it Saturday evening, and a meet at a Tandoori Chicken point? It should get the Delhi BHPians zipping in
