| Re: Quick Meets at Bangalore Had a very nice meet. An amazing group to hang out !!! Kudos to Karthik, Waseem and Jayanth for the excellent planning. The breakfast and lunch were really awesome. About Speedway: The ‘Speedway’ is a very nice facility, located not so far from Bangalore. I have tried my hands on ATV and loved the excellent off-road terrain they have. The most fun part was sitting the open/rear part of Mustysekhon’s gypsy and doing a fast lap on this track  Great experience !!!! Adding some photos from my humble/simple P&S cam: Reached the first meeting point a little early at 6.45 AM.  Reached Breakfast point at 7.55 AM.  Our cars parked near the hotel  Thatte idli, it was too good !!  Eye-Catcher. Had a nice and scary off-roading in the ATV track of Speedway later in this beauty !!  Reached Speedway and parked our rides  Discussions started within no time  ATV – 150 cc  Gloss black alloys for abarth. Only one day old !!  Punto’s !!  ATV’s ready for action  Into the track  Some from Karting    Alstonlobo got a nice shade/position for clicking  Some more from karting    More cameras  And some discussions too   The track  Look at those tee’s  Team ready action  Mud racers in action    Spotted the “spotter” on NICE road in the return journey  Hope to see you guys soon for the next meet  |

| BHPian  | Re: Quick Meets at Bangalore What an awesome meet it was! Sadly could not reach meeting point A since we woke up late! Managed to reach the breakfast point just in time! All eyes were on us as we reached the Thatte Idli shop! Let the pics do the talking! Following is the first batch of pics! The delicious Thatte Idli  A big thanks and salute to Waseem sir who offered to take care of our little one as we relished our breakfast!  On the way to Speedway, I spotted the spotter spotting me spotting him! That's lavish_n riding shotgun with IronH4WK.  First pic in Speedway premises from my end  My lovely ladies warming up  The ATVs being rolled out for us, one by one  Mean machines  Evil twins  Viju takes off without any delay  Meanwhile the scene at the go-karting track          The ATV track     IronH4WK's first time on a go-kart  But definitely not the last  Some action from karting. Sorry for not tagging everybody's handle here     This is how my daughter looked after the initial hour in Speedway! However, she's not complaining!  |

| BHPian | Re: Quick Meets at Bangalore Unseen pics of IronH4WK hacking into Bangalore Traffic Police's CCTV for spotting stickered cars!   After a long day, me relaxing with my little one    Last but never the least, The customary group pic!  Once we left Speedway on the way to the restaurant, my daughter was crying hysterically. Cancelled lunch plan and headed off straight home. All in all it was a fun event! Thanks to all who put in efforts for making the event a successful one. Let's do another one soon! Cheers! |

| Re: Quick Meets at Bangalore Hi all, What an amazing sunday! Especially when you consider you are meeting these folks for the first time ever- and you have never spoke, not even a pm!I missed the meeting spot, and i had breakfast alone at bidadi barely half a km before where the rest of bhpians were having breakfast  But yes since then it was an awesome fun event thanks to karthikk who made sure everyone was comfortable. ATV was weird- for every biker there you just cant lean into the corners, you need to turn! Karting was awesome and yes the karts were fairly fast, well maintained and the track was interesting( uphill,downhill,tight turns, blind turns). Recommended! thanks to silverwood there was a sumptuous lunch at taj. Recommended again! Headed back having met some really fun folks who share your same passion and thoughts. Looking forward to another mini meet soon! Special thanks to astonlobo for so many pics mate! thanks for some really nice fb cover/profile pic grade pics! cheers! sai. PS:for the group pic i hope i have got the members right, Standing L-R, -keyank, Mrs.Astonlobo, nkrishnap, Mrs.nkrishnap, sidhu, diesel_convert, denver, vidyanand, ironh4wk, lavish_n, astonlobo, mustysekhon, ( ), crazy driver, silverwood Sitting L-R, -sai_ace, aajohn, d3mon, asdon,viju, pc77, ikoner, ( ), aviorp, karthikk, rohittunga, mashmash, ( ) Apologies for those whose names i dont recall or if i have messed up someones name.. |

| Senior - BHPian  | Re: Quick Meets at Bangalore OMG!! What all I've missed  I knew I wouldn't be able to attend due to some prior commitments. Was quietly following the thread to see the meet planning in progress. Consoled myself thinking that it would be OK to miss it considering the summer heat is too much now-a-days. But now after seeing all the fun, I am like:  Moral of the Story: Never miss a Team-BHP Meet !! |
