However, the plan has changed as most are really busy and want to do a quick drive then lunch

Traveling to Rourkela via Nagpur that day. If you guys wanna race on the Nagpur highway, then I'm game. All you need to do is defeat me!

Have fun, guys!

There is no reconfirmation nor additional participation. I was keen to set up this drive to meet new members in Hyderabad

#2-#7, we all meet regularly offline, so just to meet the same folks don't want to have this drive meet as I would have met some of them today and tomorrow as well. Meeting them 3 days in a row is too much

If there is no additional participation. Better to cancel the drive meet

I could confirm one more person, Jon Snow, but no one else replied. Looks like we have to cancel, which is a shame. Let's do this some other time.

....So true! Sadly Hyderabad meets have lost its original flavor. If you search meet sections for meets in Hyderabad you will know Hyderabad was the most rocking place in entire country for meets

Hope you have checked my post in Team-BHP 12th anniversary thread to know what iam referring to?

Rough Plan is below

Meeting Time : Sharp 11:00am
Departure time : 11:15 am

Drive on ORR (We can decide that when we meet)

Plan is to stop for a quick lunch at either of two places below

1. Taramati Baradari (Langar-House to Narsingi Road/Gandipet Road)

2. Coastal Spice (Gachibowli)

Folks be on time as this will be my last drive meet (This is an incomplete sentence and it will be completed when we meet tomorrow)

mobike008 · 20th February 2016, 22:50

Sorry Guys! Cannot make it tommorow as all the folks from 5-10 met today and all of them dropped out as back to back meets

Looks like this drive meet is just not happening due to many offline meets in between

Perhaps, we can do a lunch meet in Gachibowli/ Hitec city ( assuming most of us work around that area)

Lets plan something around these lines soon

jayded · 21st February 2016, 01:32

And sadly it continues...

This has been happening since more than a year now and it has made the entire scene really grim. I for one, will hesitate to put my name down here for any future meets seeing the trend of the past 5-6 attempts, over the last 2 years.

Avi, I really admire your enthusiasm around the drive meets, but I am not sure a lot of others share the same passion when it comes to doing a proper drive meet nowadays. It's great if people are meeting offline, but I think you really don't have to try hard and force them to hit the road, because most of them are going to say yes casually and back out at the 11th hour anyways, making you alone look silly at the end. So if people prefer to stay offline, please let them be

Just thought I'll say this much. Congrats on the Versys. Fitting replacement for the Bonnie, man! Happy riding!

jetti · 21st February 2016, 09:03

Jayded, yes the "offline" members bailed out. But we other 4-5 people: manas_270, JonSnow, me and possibly ngauravmalhotra are still meeting. And anyone else is also free to join.
