He wishes to turn the whole world blue, now I better run before he tries to beat me and turn me blue. Sumit, like said its Zoosheey not joshi.

PS: Seems to be a problem. Folks are travelling with me to hosur tomorrow at 5am. Condor, what time are you planning on reaching hosur? I should be out by 6:30. Can meet you there directly.

he said he will start by 4am.

Wokay!... got myself a BSNL Prepaid... the number is 94420 78098 . I am putting this up here for everyone's benefit. It should (hopefully) get activated latest by 10am tomorrow. In any case - try my old number - if that's not reachable then try this one!. If thats not reachable either .. well.. then blow us a kiss in the general direction of the hills & head back home!!

In the truck if I could.

Other times, it's JP Nagar ..

JK, Can do Salem - it's just about 20km more [as per the maps] if I come towards Salem instead of Mettur. Let me know if you want a ride.

Sankar's bringing the sub with him he said.

v1p3r, will pick you up first and Tadu next before we head for Hosur.

Location wise, looks like Anaikatti is west of the CBE- Ooty/ Mettupalayam road. About 40km from CBE, 46km from Mettupalayam.

mclaren1885 · 8th June 2007, 19:30

Tadu hasn't yet confirmed. If he is coming he will be bringing his torque monster. Should get a confirmation by about 10pm.

kb100 · 8th June 2007, 19:39

COndor - Will NOT recommend you from taking the Salem route (IF you are NOT picking up JK that is)... there is lots of four laning happenning between Salem and Coimby - its sheer chaos..Turn right from Thoppur - and come the Mettur - Bhavani route... believe me you'll reach here a happy man!

TADU... PUHLEEESE MAKE IT YAAR!

Harrie · 8th June 2007, 19:40

Here is the route to anaiketti in case some one drops in late

Coimbatore

1. Ask for GCT college, Tadagam road. This is parallel to metupalayam road, D.B road
2. Continue towards tadagam. Take the left fork when you reach a v-junction
Ask for anaiketti.
3. You'll come across a check post pretty soon. Hills start from here. Keep going straight. At a junction take the left.
4. Just before anaiketti town a road climbs to the left. There will be a board saying "Tribal boys Hostel"
Take that road and keep coming straight.

If you miss the road, you'll reach anaiketti town. Take a U-Turn and come back. Take the first right.

5. You'll reach teh river. Cross the river and you'll end up at the farms gate.

mclaren1885 · 8th June 2007, 19:46

Harrie, thats some superb direction details. Will write them down. If we cant get there on time condor, c3po, tadu (maybe) and myself shall see you guys directly at the farm.

KB you are right, we will take the thoppur-mettur-bhavani route if we have to skip Jk. I just came two weeks back from that route. Roads are pretty good.

condor · 8th June 2007, 20:04

Harrie, thanks for that.

McL, good you're coming ..

Have sms'd JK - will go to Salem if he needs a ride. Will call him before Thoppur in case he doesnt respond by then. Else it is Mettur.

Harrie · 8th June 2007, 20:08

Hey rahul, i repeat that guy is a cheat! Trust me. Been there done that. Instead start early from blr.

Parents insist. And at this juncture there is nothing I can do but listen to them. Will be leaving to hosur at 4am. Just spoke to tadu over the phone. He is in!

speedzak · 9th June 2007, 00:18

So guys!

I am ready to leave home early morning tomorrow! Me, ArtofZen, Mansidea, Aha!, Hydrashok and Nikkibike leave together from Cochin in 2 cars.
Sreejups and his friend will come later.

Condor and V1p3r will leave at 4am from Bangalore. Stumpy and Tadu will leave Hosur by around 6:30am.

Steeroid will meet us at Coimbatore by 10am.

Jkdas will reach Coimby with Condor.

Quicksilver, Harrie, Charan, Mohit and KB100 will welcome us at Coimby CCD.

Dropouts are always welcome to reconsider!

Here is a map of Coimbatore with the roads marked. Please note down the routes.

Together, Let's create the MONSOON MAYHEM @ SILENT VALLEY!
Till then, Bye!

Steeroid · 9th June 2007, 00:43

SOMEONE give me a wake up call @ 7 am....am 56 kms from Palghat and need to check my cars undercarriage first thing tomorrow before I start.
