Thanks for the heads up SDP.

I get free from work at 7 30, so won't be able to join in before 8 -8 15 at the earliest. Though being a Friday I might be able to clock out early. Keep me in tentative at the moment, will be able to confirm when the time of meet is set.

Regards,

Working In thane, but I've shifted home (back) to powai, so I anyways have to drive till powai after work, could stop and say hi to you guys if you stay put till after 8ish.

latentpotential · 16th June 2013, 00:37

I'll see all of you guys there, thanks for the quick message SDP as always.

Now I have an incentive to go to my Vikhroli office on Fridays! I'm usually working from home these days.

Although I usually work till ~8.30ish in the evening, count me in on the 21st.

IIRC, theres a lot of parking available near the big park too, taking a right from the circle (opp the go-karting entrance).

Maybe on clear days, we could include go-karting into the meet? It's been ages since i've go-karted mainly due to lack of company.

Did get the PM from Jignesh.
Thanks for that.

I did stumble upon this thread yesterday while surfing from mobile, but forgot to subscribe to it. Finding the thread today was made easy, thanks to Jignesh.

I might miss the meet this time as have a drive scheduled on early Saturday morning. Travelling back home from Powai would mean a headache in itself.

Would for sure try to join in for the next meet.

Hope this is not a one time meet and we carry on. *thumbs up*

StrangeWizard · 16th June 2013, 15:48

Just saw this thread. I stay at kandivali but I'll still try to come for the next meet.

Will have to give this one a miss since I'm recovering from a knee injury.

The Go karting track up on the hill is closed(for more than 6 months now I think). I think there is a new building coming up there, some construction going on. Go karting now happens near powai plaza, haven't been there but have heard the track is boring.

But yeah, we can easily find parking for 10-12 cars around the old go kart track.

gaddiwale · 16th June 2013, 21:30

Hi. My office is also in Hiranandani Gardens, Powai. If I'm not out of Mumbai on 21st I'll surely join you people.

dar3dev|l · 17th June 2013, 09:01

hey fellows,

Work in Lower Parel, but would have loved to join you guys !! Sadly not this time as caught up with other commitments :(

Cheers !

Mohan Mathew A · 17th June 2013, 09:45

Great initiative everyone. I work in goregaon. So i am not sure i will be able to reach powai by 6,going to be difficult. I will join whenever i get free early from office. One word of advice on the go karting track. Dont go to the new go karting track. It is pathetic. Track is boring and really short. Karts are in bad shape and they dont even provide your lap timings. Really a waste of time and money
