I thought Nandi hills was only 60-65Kms from Mekhri circle, I cycled to Nandi Hills 20 years back, so I remember. How did it turn out to be 250Kms?

Simple...
Before reaching nandi hills they overshot the turn and went approx 5 kms ahead one way... came back... stopped at dhaba before going home..had a couple of drinks... and the rest is history

Okie... these snaps take the cake.
Since i had to leave by around noon, could only manage these.

Jkdas's version of photography.

theMAG's version of the same. Highly innovative, i shud say. Have heard of skateboard abs.... this was a different version. LOL !!

Members waiting to purchase the entry tickets.

Covered up with muck... and guys.. this was not from any mud-slinging which took place. My ikon poses with the truck.

Sumit, apparently your truck's famous at your office too. Was showing these snaps to a friend who works at your firm, and he recognized it immediately.

Whokay - my contribution to this pile.

1. View en-route to the top

2. From the top - precipice

3. Godfather scouting for places to dump his victims' carcasses

4. Grazing session by the herd

Amazing Drive to nandi hills.

Skoda RS and Elantra rocked.

After seeing Tadus petrified elantra rock even i was thinking of my next car to be an all new elantra(138bhp 2007) petrified so that i can overtake him easily.

I was really shocked the way tadu overtook my Ikon 1.6(Rally sports F1) like a rocket.

Tadu - I have some questions for you.
1) Why was the elantra front wheel spinning while taking off though it had traction control.
2) Forgot to ask you the way elantra handled at speeds of 200kmph.

Thanks to mcLaren1885 for making the great event happen.
