In that case how about meeting at my place in Baner first? CPR is just a few minutes drive from my place. Just a suggestion

Can somebody please confirm what exactly is the itinerary for the 'Car Fiesta' tomorrow ? Our venue to meet up together is changed drastically as it seems the rally is not coming to Le Meridien.

All others who want to come for the meet - make a note of this.

Final Venue : Centre for Police Research, Pashan.
Time : 10.00 AM

@praJEEP - what time are you reaching pune ? My number : W - zero - 1 - 1 - zero - J - P - G - P - G

I so wanted to come, but there was a family function to be attended compulsorily! And btw, I thought the rally would come to Le Meriden. So, I got my self there after the function at around 1, but guess what. Not a car-loving soul in sight! After getting home did I read that the rally was at Pashan.

Had a great time at the Rally.
Left at around 7ish from Bombay with Ronnie (President) and two other car lovers.
Stopped in Lonavala for some work to be done at my house there and had some breakfast.
Arrived in Pune just in time for the flag off and realised that my camera battery is not charged hence could click only a few pics.

Met up with Prabal for the first time and Subhash Karmarkar. Was a pleasure meeting you Prabal and Subhash. Please call when in Mumbai next.

The rally was short and sweet. I hoped onto a W115 1973-73 Mercedes Benz 220 owned by Subhash Sanas and driven by Jay Phatak.
Very well maintained car but could do with some mechanical work.
There on we proceeded to Dorabjees for a hearty lunch. The dessert (disappointing) destination was George's. No good. Then for a cup of good ol "Choi" at Diamond cafe.
We had this with the softest Bun Maska (yes after all that food) and proceeded for car hunting around Pune lead by Karl and accompanied by Amol and Prabal.
Ten around 4.30ish we left for Bombay
Will post pics and details tomorrow.

Good Nite......I need Digene!!

Missed something real good man..
