| The highlight of this meet was the great arrangements made by mjothi, akroy and Lukeskywalker. No wait... The highlight of this meet was the great photo shoot of all the 26 cars. No wait... The highlight of this meet was the great turnout by all the members along with their families. No wait... The highlight of this meet was the great location and the offroading that took place. I guess its difficult to pin point any one highlight for this meet. Also things that need to be mentioned in the highlights are: - Tractor - Great sandwiches. Thanks Lukeskywalker (May the force be with you) - Great weather Following are some of the pics: Kids having a blast in the Gypsy  Some grown-up kids having a blast in the Gypsy  The arena. Let the games begin !!  Hmmm... So this is where all the wine comes from  Spotted one rare bug in the meadows of _____ (what was the name of that place again??)  An amature attempt at stitching  |

| Senior - BHPian | @ Gowda79 I did not have my camera for most of the meet's duration, was busy with the tractor, but some of the people have taken very good snaps of the whole meet, I'm sure the labrador is in one of them. But I captured him: Somebody play with me  |

| Senior - BHPian | Reports & Pictures of the meet... Guys, that was real fun. Morning, 7:45am. We are ready and starting to the parking area. Load the car with Chips, Miranda and sother stuffs. I get a call from Jassi. "Hi, I will be near Big Bazaar in next 10 min." Good, I respond to him and start driving to OMR. I reached OMR @ 7:50, waiting for Jassi, Jedi & akroy. 8am, Jassi & PhrozenFire comes in their Santro. I try for Sammyboy, but phone is not picked. Then try for akroy and came to know that he is also waiting for basu in parking area. Then we decide to leave once jedi comes, and akroy informs us that he will make it through K.R.Puram. Well, the trip starts once jedi is there. We had usual traffic in ORR, I had several SMS one behind other informing that guys will be in meeting point in few mins. Good news, so guys are really serious about the meet. We manage the bangalore traffic and reach meeting point. I could see so many cars parked there. Make no guess, its Team-BHPians. But still I miss the service lane entry and go to the next signal and drive back.  Hari was distributing the name tags, akroy writing the handle and names on it. It was fun seeign akroy trying to get a "table" to write the tags. Each car he keeps the pad and start to write, keeps leaving the place. Finally its done. Then some members decided to have breakfast and so form a group and leave for breakfast. We wait for others to turn up and when all done, head to the breakfast Hotel. Had some good breakfast, and then started to the Farm. Guys getting back to their vehicle to head for the farm.   From the main road where we took a left to reach to the farm.  Traffic Jam in the galli - COurtesy: Team-BHP meet.  Cars in straight line heading to Farm     Cars lined up.  People in the hi-hi session  Elantra, Aveo & Gypsy (Should I say that!!!)  Be a good boy - my kids with Patchyboys kid.  Catch me if you can!  What, you tired?  Ok. Lets be friends  Wait wait, oh come on, you dont stand in one place !  Wonderwhyme? No not the car, but the owner's handle  Leaving to the Grape garden for the actual fun after Photo session.  On the way to the garden,   Contd... |

Following members participated alongwith families (car): 1) Akroy - Alto 2) Amohit - Esteem 3) Anujmishra - M800 4) Bombatt - Sparky 5) Brraj - Peted Elantra 6) Dadu - Safari2.2 7) Jassi - Santro 8) Jedi.Knight - Corolla 9) Khan_sultan - Gypsy 10) Lukeskywalker - Optra 11) MJothi - Aveo 12) Patchyboy - Palio Stile 13) Pavan Kadam - VW Beetle 1960 14) PhrozenFire - RXZ 15) Prabhuav - Elantra 16) Ravibhat - Petrol Innova 17) Sajands - Verna 18) VJ_Mavrick - Alto 19) Viper_711 - Palio Stile 20) Chandan - Getz 21) ZoomingBhat - Accent 22) BTirthankar - hitched with Akroy (finally gave his Innova some rest as it is due for servicing @ Nandi Toyota tomorrow.) 23) McLaren1885 - Swift D 24) DKamath - Safari 25) WonderWhy aka Amar Singh - Pajero 26) Jaguar - Ikon 27) Sammyboy - ?? and finally the All members and their TRACTOR RIDE I hope I have not missed out anyone. Only drawback of this meet - No MOD or D-BHPian. This is a rare phenomenon in bangalore meets where no MODs or the distinguished ones. Last but not the least, Many Many thanks to Hari and his family for providing the that nice area which turned out to be a beautiful outing for the members and families and not to forget the excellent egg sandwitches, boiled eggs, chips and the soft drinks. It was truely a memorable meet. We also liked the ambience for lunch and everyone enjoyed it very much. Thanks to mjothi for starting the initiative which reflected into suicha wonderful turnout in sucha short time. Basu, Now it is over to you to post the photoblog of not only the meet but also our extended meet at the Ghati Subramanya temple another 20km from Dodaballapur and also that small offroading that Alto and Optra undertook to go to the forgotten dam.
