I am fine with both Sat or Sun, as of now! You never know whats gonna turn-up in the last min.

As of now, it would be me and a friend along with me. One more person can join along with me

Can we go yet?

Also, I was interested in video graphing the drive. Would there be anybody interested in joining me in the car to do the good deed?

The small print will read:

Only people with no heart ailments and strong heart conditions with no palpitation issues need apply.

amoghmasur · 20th November 2008, 20:54

Me in !!! Do I have to bring a car or can I tag along with someone???

akshay_b · 20th November 2008, 21:23

Wow, I love that place, I'd love to come, But guys, I'm not permitted 'cause i'm 18yrs and 6 months old, Got my drivers license a few weeks back, And my dad still thinks i'm a novice road user

I've done 2k kms alone on my new santro's odo without a scratch or a dent in bottelnecked bangalore's traffic and on highways too.
BTW, how long will the meet last? i'll try to convince my dad if its a 2 day meet.

A useful tip got from the website mentioned by raj

Useful Tip
Credit cards are not accepted anywhere at Yelagiri; by and large most hotels/ lodging places expect payment by cash only or a Demand Draft for advance bookings. Check the mode of payment at the place you stay when you book or before you check-in. Since there are no ATMs out there, better to carry cash.

Looks like we have to satisfy ourselves with a drive to Mysore till then?

Looking at the way things are going with the baleno front, looks like I might have to do the honors of being the camera man
