Guys, family is allowed or not.

I am in however if we allow family it will be less difficult for me to join you.

Thanks,
Vishal.

Vishal , as discussed in the last meet lets keep it for the members only types this time (unless folks think otherwise ) , just for everyone being comfortable . We can definately include families from next drives etc .

Moreover this would have some (to be read " Great " ) element of a photoshoot/drive meet so would be better Boys only types .

That was my humble opinion , no offence intended .

[fiat_tarun]

Guys around what time will we be back ? I need to be in Aundh by 2pm, thats why i'm asking.

IMHO even if we are planning this to be a "half day" drive, I don't see us returning before 4 PM. It never happens that way when a large group of enthusiastic people is together . Just look back to Sunday. We had planned to return home before 10. 4-5 of us, left our photo venue at 12:30 hrs...hehehe

And also, I don't see any big problems in making it a Family event...That way, we'll also have a co-driver who can take photos while we are driving

[konjaril]

OK count me in the tentative attendees..

[Shreeram]

Take Me in as Confirmed. My Vote goes to Mulshi..

True, take poll on this. Because on weekend if you are going half day out alone then... all married people know what I mean by 3 dots here.

Thanks,
Vishal.

On second thoughts agree with the above. Not sure if there would be issues with permissions for a big convoy and the route suggested above sounds more interesting.

So changing my preference in the confirmed list below. Also modifying option 2 for more clarity.

JD, no more assumptions required my friend. Im so IN.

As far as location is concerned, Im ok with anything. Lets just make it a short one. Lavasa, Mulshi or even Amby Valley sounds good.
Lets just make sure that we have good hotels wherever we go. Cant miss out on good food can we?

EDIT: Family or no family, lets leave it to the discreation of the member. If the member is comfortable in getting the family along. then so be it. Just my two pence.

[Reinhard]

How about Pavana Dam? Most of you must be knowing it, for those who don't - Its near Kamshet / Lonavala. Amazing place and very less crowd. IIRC, its on the other side of the Lohgad Fort. (Other side - with Pune-Mumbai expressway being the reference.)

[kpbhatt]

ok with tentative status -- my preference would be for Mulshi -- would try to include my family too in the meet\drive....
