Dinner location isn't decided in advance. Location will be decided on the spot itself. But it would be in and around Powai.

I guess it's not as spooky nowadays as it used to be.

BTW, belated birthday wishes!

The only spooky sounds that i hear in aarey are the sound of the shocks of my car groaning

.Am in 90%.

Guys I will be there at 7 PM.

Thanks,

Wasn't planning on attending this one. I overslept, realized I don't have enough time to get my pending work (out) done and I said what the heck! Let's just go meet the gang. Not going to type in much. Let the pics do the talking.

The surprise visitor: Flyingspur on his flying390

We headed over to our "adda". K3. The jalebis are amazing.

Varun (vvb8530) also joined the meet. Didn't manage to click him.

As I type this, half the gang is busy hogging dinner. Apologies for we had to leave early!

EDIT: BIG thanks to LatentPotential and engrohit for the sweets! Haven't had such tasty sweets in quite some time.

Cheers!
Cartman.

Sorry for ditching you guys at the last moment but I won a couple of tickets to the Mumbai Mirror comedy nights - so I took off with wifey !

Looks like a fab meet again - lets do it next week too before the year runs out !

FlyingSpur · 14th December 2013, 10:13

It's after a very long time that I met a new set of members. Great to see the enthusiasm with which this fortnightly meet is deliberated, attended and reported, meet after meet. Being someone who works in Chakala and stays at Bandra, I have always shuddered at the thought of going to Powai after work through ridiculous traffic for this meet. Turns out I had about two hours free yesterday, decided it's time to make the trip.

Reached Powai at about 6:30 pm with the intention of catching up with an ol' mate from college. Went to HFS at 7:00 pm to find a familiar face there - Sushil (Maverick5490) was waiting patiently for the others to arrive. Rode straight up to him and asked if he recognized me; he replied in the negative. Got out of the helmet and he was really surprised. I don't think he ever expected to see me roll up to him on a bike. We met after a long long time, every other meeting has been at the Navnit workshop where he had taken great care of our car for more than two years. Great to catch up with you again, man.

Also met and chatted with Jignesh and Yogesh about the Duke, cars and work. Dinner commitments in Juhu meant I had to leave quite early, so I said my goodbyes at about 7:45 pm when Adishenoy and Cartman arrived, so I stayed a few minutes longer. Obviously, I knew I would get a couple of good shots of the bike, so it was worth it

great to see you guys again as well.

I did notice a couple other members joined the group while Cartman was clicking. My sincere apologies for having to rush off without saying so much as a hello, I was really running against the clock last evening. Look forward to meeting the remaining gang soon. Looks like you had a good meet as usual.

It was good to meet you Akshay. Good to see mods turning up for the meets as well. Last time around Anoop had dropped in for a short time.

Do try to make it the next time the group meets.

Cheers,
Yogesh.

Indeed Akshay it was great to meet you and was a huge surprise seeing you on 2 wheels and that too on a 390!!

Do put an ownership review on the 390 as it grows on to you! and do take out time once in a while to join in!
