re: Hyderabad Meet Thread 2011 Meets_EDIT : Dec 22_Hadippa Lunch Meet

Folks,
I have a couple of new issues:-
  1. Slight wobble on my Fiesta notice this afternoon---I guess I hit a pothole a wee bit too fast. I don't think I will enjoy driving at high speeds tomorrow.
  2. My wife has a class tomorrow (yes, even on a Sunday, darn those guys), so the Waggie is off.
So I am now moving to 'Kirkiri' status, unless some kind soul volunteers to take me with him.

Edit: @Mods---please delete the earlier post. I got a page not found error when I posted that, but later it appeared mysteriously.

re: Hyderabad Meet Thread 2011 Meets_EDIT : Dec 22_Hadippa Lunch Meet

Hi guys,

I am busy prepping my cars so am most probably out for this meet. I would also like a quiet weekend before the hectic weeks ahead.

Cheers and have a great drive. Post lots of nice pics pls.

Looks like I would have to drop-out this time. Some unexpected things cropped up at the last moment. Eagerly awaiting for pics from the attendees.

Ani: Seems we need to have a mid-week meet ASAP.

Seems this drive was just too mind-blowing - no reports even now. If no one is posting we need to extract the full story from them in a mid-weeker!

You may get report/full story of the drive in a mid-weeker but what about others like me?

Guys,
waiting for the report and pics ASAP.

We(inlcuding +1) did finally made it. Though a little late but just in time for lunch. Stayed there for a while. We had a wondeful photoshoot of all the cars lined up.
Appu and Sabby's baleno were the attention hoggers for their wonderfully modded and beautifully kept cars. Though I must add that Puzz's linea looked equally awesome.
"therealabs" and his Ninja took a beating when he probably misjudged the turn on the way to Etthipotala falls and went off the road. He is alright but the Ninja had to be put on the tempo and sent back.
Okay, most importantly, Fish fry was amazing, no doubt about it.
That's just a very short and concise report from me. I left quickly after the photo-shoot, so don't know what time everybody else left.
The pics and detailed report might be a little late as the weather was humid and hot and probably took it's toll. I am very tired after the quick run still, so guessing that other's too would be feeling a little drained too.

But still hope that pics start rolling by afternoon. I have quite a few pics to share myself taken with my new cam. Will do so at night from home.

Well the basics did come out on the BBM and as you guessed rightly, the meet was really EVENTFUL!

Let's plan the Mid-Week with the other do!

re: Hyderabad Meet Thread 2011 Meets_EDIT : Dec 22_Hadippa Lunch Meet

The trip was awesome, but for the Ninja incident, which thankfully turned out to be minor for the person involved.

It was terribly tiring for most of us. I hit the bed at 845 pm and woke up only this morning ! I guess driving against the setting sun and getting lost on the ORR had taken its toll on most of us !

I enjoyed sitting in Neel's Fiesta to and fro, and it was an awesome ride. Now at least I know how the backseat of a Fiesta feels..

More later. It's back to work now.

re: Hyderabad Meet Thread 2011 Meets_EDIT : Dec 22_Hadippa Lunch Meet

The trip was great. I started an hour late and caught up with the team at Ethipothala falls. The weather in the morning was good, but was humid by noon.
There were literally thousands of cattle on the road.

Here is the teaser. Hope to upload the rest by evening.
