Sir, rest assured we wont leave a bad impression on you with regards to our driving sense, skills and even otherwise. I suggested this tip because the whole idea of a normal speed convoy drive fails when the cars go out of sight and then we need to co-ordinate about the locations.

Having said this, I am also requesting for a small gesture, since most of us are aware that the location houses a good number of embassies and patrolling cars so kindly don't indulge in 360 or 180 degree turns with your cars and keep the music of vehicles at a decent decibel.

Unlike last time, we shall decide the photo-shoot location in prior and can proceed to the same after stomach-refueling.

Thanks

Takes about 15-20 minutes, give or take. we guys can meet at the 9 too. I am absolutely fine with it. Last time it took 15 minutes from DND. Just the Africa Avenue red light to deal with and hardly any traffic on a Sunday morning.

This looks so tempting. Unfortunately, I can't do morning meets. Whenever there is an evening meet do let me know and will join in.
Have fun on Sunday!

9:00 am sounds good. Being my first meeting, I am not sure about how punctual everyone is and I hate being late.

Sir rest assured, me being 20, I rarely drive over 60. However I will say the truth and tell you that certain BHPians will ahem show their car 'prowess' by cutting lanes and accelerating fast, which is rather pointless, stupid and bordering on dangerous. But there are still sensible young uns like me, so relax sir

I have this bad habit too (being punctual that is). let's meet at 9am right after the toll! I should be in either my Merc or the Laura with the blinkers on.

Yaar, All of us will drive safe. I have requested on same and mentioned it too. I too vouch for it that you are a sane driver.

What's "young uns", kindly refrain from sms lingo! Read the announcement section clearly Sir Samar. Be on time over there, I am counting on you Samar.

Actually , i asked so that i could meet them somewhere and then come along with them , have'nt been to chanakyapuri , so coming along with someone is definitely better than google maps.

Well, if you do a 360,while everyone else does a 180, you won't be able to follow,no?
You'll be heading the other way!!: )



Akash, dropping out, though. Sorry.
