Feb Hyd 2007 meet, EDIT: Pics Added!!

kkr2k2 · 13th February 2007, 22:58

Hey guys i think 9:00 am should be the meeting time at mehedipatnam. That way we have more time to see ananthagiri hills.

Here is my proposal for agenda:

9:00AM, meet at Mehedipatnam. I suggest meeting point to be right after you cross Sarojini Devi Eye Hospital, the road takes a natural left, as soon as we enter the left, we shall stop on the road side. Here the road is wide, so we can park the cars there. Any ideas for the breakfast?? or have it and come.

10:00AM, start to ananthagirihills. Did someone say, comming early is a problem, sleep early on saturday, getup early on sunday. Bhp meet at such an awesome place is not something we do very often, and before noon is an excellent time to enjoy the climate while driving. From my experience, one can feel the change in the temperature when approaching the hill. Am I right naveen??

12:00PM, reach ananthagirihills. I say two hours because, lot of people dont know the place, there might be delays due to getting lost and pick up some snacks on the way and have the grub when we reach there. Then to the temple for interested souls, then drinks (soft or alcoholic) + some stuff to eat(the stuff we pick-up on the way).

1:00PM, go for lunch to vikarabad, Naveen shall show the place.

2:30PM, reach anathagirihills, roam around or take pics or jhaad ke peche 'both'gaya or......

5:00PM, start back.

6:30PM, reach Mehdipatnam safely

7:00PM, disperse or anyone interested in extended meet ???

.

lets have a blast.
raj.

nosfreak, the road that continues ahead on fly over takes you to Mehidipatnam. Go on fly-over and contnue on the wide road with a few turns.

Hey Fellas,
I went to Ananthagiri Hills a few weekends ago. The drive is awesome once you hit the open stretches beyond the Chilkur diversion.
Keep the following in mind
1) Once you reach the hills(hillocks more like) there's no food or water. We had to pick up beer from Vikarabad and packed sandwiches with us from home. If there's good dhabas that Naveen knows, that'll be good.
2) There's an inspection bugalow from where the views are beautiful. The inspection bungalow was closed the day we went and no one was around so we sneaked in through a side route. But other than that and the temple there's nothing to see.
3) It looks like good hiking terrain, but to hike there, it would be better to reach the place early(say by 9:00 a.m.). That'll give us 2 - 3 hours of hiking time before it gets too hot.
I'm doubtful right now much as I want to make it. An all day outing minus family is a bit difficult, unless I make it back by afternoon. Anyone bringing their families along?

zenopio · 14th February 2007, 17:59

hello guys ...i am also ready for the meet. i stay near ecil x road. so i can pick up any one staying near ecil x road .

I second that.

. But, we have to make a balance for all the members, as some of them will be working late in the night on saturday.

Regarding the families???
satish cannot bring his family, sreenivas he himself is doubtfull, debasis'ji' where are you???
zappo, mobike, suren, kutlee, kcmc,....

i think Kcmc and suren will not have any issues to bring in their families.

If families are comming along, I dont mind dumping the idea of booze. I am sure nobody minds (i dont know about one 'man', who likes it the indian way..... :P )

had you not mentioned it was you. I would have suggested to call vijjukrishna

Anyways, now you have created a new id, contact any of the mods regarding your earlier id.

P.S: any mods looking at this please look into vijjukrishna's case. Thank you.

katalyst · 14th February 2007, 21:01

:( looks like i will be missing this meet..

I guess I'll wait, patiently, for the next one.
@Mobike - my bike is back in town, am all set for a bike trip as well.

Ciao

mobike008 · 15th February 2007, 10:43

Guys, i am in for sure

But, something else has developed, there is a family lunch party on Sunday and i cannot miss that so i will join you guys but, may leave early from there around 2pm so atleast i can make it back to catch a late lunch with them ( as I know they wont have lunch before 4-5pm

).

So i am in now for a bit early meet ( say 9:30am or 10am) so i can have the best of both worlds

@Katalyst, I am game anytime for the bike trip, lets plan a short trip next sunday with a short distance of not more than 150km up and down, think of something and let me know

satish_appasani · 15th February 2007, 12:22

Sorry guys...looks like i have to miss this. Something has come up.

Plan something in the future where it is just driving and stopping only for food and i am sure in...

zenopio · 15th February 2007, 16:19
