I would like to participate in this GQ run.

Good idea! this would be a great alternative to the January drive meet. we can do the bijapur drive in March/April.

Jan 09 would only be possible for me if its at the end of the month.

@HVK: whats the next step sir? Should we start booking rooms etc etc?
Also I`m planning to drive my Octy RS from Cal to Chn and back, are the roads on that route ok for the low GC due to the RS bumper?

We should be able to give you the updates on road conditions in a week

himanshugoswami · 23rd December 2008, 11:24

Hrishi, are the dates finalised (7th to 14th Feb) or they are still under consideration. need to plan for leaves from work accordingly.

hrag · 23rd December 2008, 16:14

I *think* so but in case anybody's interested in an earlier event:

I think we should take inspiration from the new year drive and finalise these dates.

Lets just agree on the dates and then everything else can be managed around it. Anyway there is no perfect date. So lets freeze these.

Cheers

Ok guys lets not loose the focus. With 1 GQ drive already done lets get into turbo mode and crystallize our plan for this one…We have a lot to take home from the drive the famous 5 have just completed.

If all of us are ok with the 7th-14th Feb dates then we can take things further from there - things like daily targets, tbhp meets at the EOD locations, hotels, groups etc.

There is a lot to do guys.

GSMINC · 6th January 2009, 13:55

Yes I am ready to do the whole GQ strech from 7-14th Feb on my Diesel Swift.
Anyone wants to join me from Bangalore for the whole strech ?
HVKumar ji Pls do the needful in tying the loose ends.

IronWolf · 6th January 2009, 14:27

That would be interesting. all the best on your drive. Drive safe

evo · 6th January 2009, 17:08

7th-14th FEB is ok with me on the CAL-CHN route.
(whatever subset of dates within that)

KSM-Vtec · 6th January 2009, 17:20

Where are the BLR guys? I think we need the full GQ participants to contribute...

jaysmokesleaves · 13th January 2009, 12:16

At this point in the thread can a summary be put up about most likely tenative dates for the trip, number of participants, etc.
I & my Safari would certainly like to join this once i can figure out the dates. Did not find a single confirmed date of departure in the whole thread.

evo · 13th January 2009, 12:38

I agree with jaysmokesleaves. Lets have a date and then we`ll know if we can stick with it or not.

Just for some perspective, its already 13th Jan. So we have a month. So lets get moving

KSM-Vtec · 13th January 2009, 12:41

The dates were fixed at 7th-14th feb right??

VJ_MAVRICK · 13th January 2009, 13:29

I will be doing the Blr-Mum stretch as confirmed before. Maybe Kumar sir, Shahnawaz or Mahesh can throw some light about the people confirmed and willing to do it as its still very vague about the members doing the confirmed stretches.
