clevermax was very busy with his camera, so should have a lot to post - meet and others!

Vaisakh, you were missed a lot. prsnck apparently had work to do in Tripunithura and also missed the meet. There is always a next time.

BSNL EVDO was particular;y slow today and I had to reupload a photo after editing as I did it earlier without masking the number plates. I managed!
Me and Vaishak. Or is it me only !! sorry extremely sorry.

Adding to this..It was me who started the thread for quick mini meet. And this was the day and time I was able to find out time to add something to that thread only. Such was situation.

It was plethora of events, my trip to ernakulam which I will sure post a blog only and then chottanikkara temple was all sea of devotees. By the time me and wife managed to get darshan and come out it was almost 11.30. Thanks Vaishak for the timely sms, but then I was chugging like a goods train in an unusually big queue of devotees on sunday.

In this weekend trip to Aleppey and ekm, Dr. Deepu from Aleppey called me. Then I called up Dr. Rajesh (our beloved trrk!). Never thought responses would be so positive, hearty and warming. Thanks Deepu and Rajesh, as well Vaishak.

Was very excited to meet tbhp folks from ekm-aleppey, so was the sole reason and thoughts behind this thread starter from me, who was absconding as trrk rightly mentioned. Anyway really happy that folks were able to meet, and I really appreciate the chain of sms, calls and spirit amongst our team members to meet up in this era where everyone finds out time as the most rarest.

What I really feel is the feel at home even after we are so far away from home. Such is the bonding,activeness and team spirit, I feel rather lucky to be part of tbhp!!

Now for sure I will make a point to attend most of the meets if not all at bangalore and make more meaningful friends from the world of mean machines and automobiles which ever interests me than anything. Never seen any meets happen in my hometown, calicut. Anyway will plan to start that during onam and make meets in calicut possbile whenever I am there and make sure I am available there first up. !

Hi friends,

This could be off topic here.

Thanks for all the good words.

Vaisakh sprained his left hand and excused himself from a planned meet.

I have the perfect excuse for not attending any meets for the next two months.

I managed to break my left leg yesterday.

So it is off to my 'prison' at home for most of the next two months.

While accepting thanks for all the 'get well soon' messages that you have in mind, please do not post them here or in PM.

I am sorry.

Anything happening for this weekend ?
I'll be back home in KL-7 for a week starting Saturday 6:05am (assuming train is on time)

Would be nice to add a face to the name/t-bhp handles

Will sunday work ?

Evening'ish
Sip some tea/coffee from some local shop to get the batteries charged.

Maybe we can go for a quick drive on HMT road and drive on to the gravel hill (trust me its fun...!) behind the Kinfra Biotechnology Center take some pics of the rides.

HMT, HMT Rd, Ernakulam, Kerala, India - Google Maps


Then go some place on the bye-pass have some coffee and be on our way.
And can call it a "proper" bhp meet

Jose, Naveen, Clevermax say what guys ?

Location & Time

If ok we can meet in front of

Location : Bharat Mata College (Now just off the seaport airport road)

Time : 4:30pm

From there we will stop for a quick tea en-route and then drive/ride together to the "hill"

After we are done, drive back someplace in Bye-pass, Palarivattom, Kalamassery ? Grad a quick bite + coffee and split for the day.

Does anyone fancy Dinner ?

I'm all up for Suggestions / Other plans ?
