Namma Bengaluru Highway (shifting home HYD-BLR)

itwasntme · 25th July 2008, 10:01

Lovely time to move to Bangalore with 7 hour power-cuts planned from now till August :-), diesel shortage, 7000 more auto permits to be allowed and of course, courteous, disciplined and relaxed traffic!

Welcome :-)

WhiteKnight · 25th July 2008, 10:20

Welcome!! Didn't know that you already made it to Bangalore, till I read akroy's pondi trip log.

Shall catch up sometime

VJ_MAVRICK · 25th July 2008, 10:34

Hi Basu,
After your phone call a couple of weeks ago, i thought you were in a state of oblivion

--just kidding. Anyways will catch you up sometime in Bangalore and welcome to Bangalore. Good to know that abhi was of great help to you.
Cheers

Welcome to Bangalore.

I came to know about your shifting to Bangalore from Akroys Pondi trip log. Good to see that both the travel experts are together. Hope to meet you sometime soon. All the Best!!

Welcome :-)

Thats a wonderful way to welcome a Hyderabadi pamapered fella with no power cuts, abundant diesel and pretty easy going traffic situation ( at least at the moment)

Basu, i am sure your going to have a fabulous time in Blore with whatever "itwasntme" described

Enjoy your stay in Bangalore!

Thanks. BTW whats ur Id on Linkedin?

Thank you Suren-bhai. I will miss u all. But I have ur number and email. U could see that day how bad I was feeling to leave all of u.

Wow more Autos. We will call it 'Autoluru', after I started calling hyderabad
as Rockabad. Yes from hebbal to airport if u look straight u feel u are outside India somewhat and the moment u cross the airport beyond, u are back in India. Diesel shortage? Shell hain na

Yeah... the only thing I did not like about Hyderabad was the traffic which looks like an army of termites. I will miss all u guys company and the mid night drives from hitec to panjagutta on wavy roads with 'Baleatric Trance'
music.

Yes the car behaved normally only.. Was like all 7 people in the car. Innova is a wonderful versatile machine.

Deadly naaa? Now u gotta worry about ur staff spending greater company time on tbhp.
If we do Moon u will have to 'moonerate' our blogs then

Hi Tirthankar,

Welcome to Bangalore. There was a lull in your postings and was wondering where you were. Nice pics and catchy titles.

ravibhat · 25th July 2008, 14:27

Welcome to Bangalore, Pleasant weather going on right now I guess same will be continued next few weeks!

Except power cut which is short time issue and more auto permission given you will enjoy Bangalore! 2 years downtheline one can expect Better Bangalore.

Ravi.

vvnagan · 25th July 2008, 14:37

Welcome to Bangy dada!!!
Have a great stay. With AKROY next to you, I suggest we all just forget about our travels and sit back and enjoy the travelogues you two will conjure up.

ASHISHPALLOD · 25th July 2008, 14:46

Tirthankar entered in Banglore and blast rocked the city.
I hope, all Banglore bhpians are safe.
Take care.

phamilyman · 25th July 2008, 14:56

Just a suggestion.

Why not use some variation of the bungee nets that bikers use for rear seat. It is a catch all. I see you did some smart placement, but god forbid in a panic braking, some of that stuff could come flying forward.

Good cargo delivery all the same. You are a innova inspiration for the rest of us.

dadu · 25th July 2008, 16:10

Welcome to bangalore, Aasman se tapke pedh pe latke.
