The First Mangalore-Udupi Chapter Meet (became beach OTR event)

james · 16th February 2010, 22:37

Hi Guys,

I think its about time members from mangalore and nearby places meetup and get to know each other.

The other day on a ride out of town, i bumped into a fellow bhpian and it was a nice feeling to finally meet a bhpian on road. ive been keeping an eye out for cars with the tbhp stickers but i usually spot them in heavy traffic and never manage to catchup.
So, i call out to all you'll 'mangies' out there to post up and introduce yourselves.

About me:
My name is Zahin James Aranha. Im 23 and im putup at Falnir. I was working in a processing unit for a mortgage Co. till about 5 months ago. Quit to study and get my degree. Currently doing my 2nd yr BBM.
I am more into bikes but ive found myself moving towards cars lately due to the dangers involved in biking and the horrible horrible roads of this town.
My Contact # is 9886922456

Cheers!!

P.S. Girish P.V, Samurai, yamaniac, LohithRao, Dockap, Sudhir, Sabertooth, Calrock and all other mangalore/Udupi Bhpians, please do postup here.

No, it is not only for Mangaloreans, "You are Most Welcome"

We will try to arrange to meet up in Kadri Park on 3rd April, Sunday.

Will keep you posted

cheers

yamaniac · 17th February 2010, 09:18

Yes we should all plan to meet up, hopefully soon. Zahin you stay close by to my place

. Unfortunately for the team-bhp stickers. I tried to buy them online. But could not. Some problem with my credit card. :(

Active Udupi BHPians are sashas, dockap, carfreak and myself. Carfreak and dockap can also be considered Mangalore BHPians.

yamaniac · 17th February 2010, 09:39

I have also seen a black Indica Vista, pretty well maintained with The T-BHP sticker in town. Any Idea who is it?

girishpv · 17th February 2010, 09:42

Wow....Moderator is from our own Udupi....I am stupid, never realize KA-20.

As there is not much difference between Mangalore and Udupi, good idea to get all together.

Let me send message to all Udupi members too.

Cheers

james · 17th February 2010, 11:31

@triedeverything, you are most welcome to join in. We shall try and plan a meet on that day.

@yamaniac, do you stay on Arya Samaj Road? the black indica with the stickers belongs to Dr. Anand(dockap). He also has a Magnum and Laura with stickers on them. He stays near city hospial if im not mistaken.
Give me a bus and drop in at my place sometime. I believe you are interestd in RD's and im working on 2 of them right now.

Who has a silver /white swift with the transparent sticker on the rear glass? Also a Silver santro with LTD(if i recall right) on the rear bumper?

And when did you move to Mangalore Lohith ?

Samurai · 17th February 2010, 13:28

I humbly suggest meeting somewhere in between if you want Udupi guys come.

Like this beach which is right at the border of Mangalore and Udupi, about 30Kms from both towns.

james · 17th February 2010, 13:37

yes ofcourse, Sharath! The meeting point will be somewhere near/inbetween Suratkal and kaup.
Lets collect the members and then plan the place and time!
