[abirnale]

Thank you everyone for the wonderful time we had today. Kids and families too enjoyed at the meet-up

Here are some pics I took today -

At the meeting point on hosur road -


We were waiting at Gate - I think Karthik paid our entry fees but I forgot to pay him :( Will do that when we meet for Kannur Drive!


And the cars crawling through the village roads, finally settled on a rock -


The Orange Candy Settled too.


And here are few pics of the Krishnagiri Dam -




I am sure as everyone reaches home and settles in, more and better pictures will follow

Here are some pics taken by me. Sorry could not take any at the meeting point or at the breakfast. Excuse the quality as they are from a paltry 8MP lens.

Following the Terrestrial JET at the tollbooth that got a lane dedicated to us BHPians. Influential people I say!


The approach road towards the dam. Silversteed's Ritz


Walking towards the spot


Had to walk through some narrow path in the paddy fields

Hello aviorp. I was behind you guys till the krishnagiri toll. A commotion between 2 auto drivers jammed my exit. It took nearly 10 mins to come out. After this I knew I would never catch you guys. I took the NICE road to reach homr at 1310hrs. It was nice riding the short stint with you guys. Cheers.

The Dukes of Krishnagiri

Still haven't downloaded the pictures from the camera and the dashcam, and the app only allows one picture at a time :(

This is the view that greeted us:



The line-up of cars (missed the Bimmer, which was parked on the opposite side)



Hawkmobile, standing out:



Another lineup:



While the cars were lined up, one of the Dukes went exploring the wild:



Some flora...



...and fauna



Avian friends:







Had a jolly good time playing catch up with the 320d, SX4 and the Fiesta Classic. Since we were in a hurry, we pushed off quickly, without waiting for everyone else. But unk9ja and the white Linea caught up when we stopped at McD Shoolagiri for lunch.

The drive also gave me an opportunity to analyse my remap closely, and there really is some room for improvement.

Apologies for not showing up. Production servers are always jinxed and decide to act weird when least expected.

Wonderful meet and enjoyed by all.

Fantastic pictures all! It was great fun to meet you for a brief time at breakfast!
@abirnale and RS Sir - Thanks for waiting up at the toll for me!
Avinash - I hope I did not push you out of your comfort zone when I understood RS Sir's 'push the pedal' literally!

Thanks Shaan for your company. And not at all I was out of comfort zone. A very controlled fun on the empty stretches we had - myself, silversteed and RS sir. We pushed the pedals real hard after you had returned Of course, I would never be able to catch up with RS sir's beemer and the way he drives, I just need to close the eyes and drive behind him - he and KarthikK are great on highways as lead/ sweeper cars!

Unfortuntaley, RS sir's car lost its rear badge while we had parked it at the meeting venue. It was at the entrance end sitting alone when we went to see the water body. Most likely during this time, some villagers vandalized the rear BMW logo from the car. I am sure it will end up showing on a bullock cart or a moped soon! Really sorry for this

I ended up losing one of my Abarth badges as well! Didn't notice until after I reached~

Sorry guys, I had to miss out on what looks like a good meet due to health issues.

That's really bad! But seriously, how do we avoid such things? probably by picking places where we don't leave our cars out of our sight?!
