The Delhi/NCR meet thread

Traveller Nayak · 4th February 2018, 20:12

It was great catching up. Thanks Rishi for coordinating and making this happen.

For me, the round trip came to approx. 285 kms but it was worth it. Waking up at 4.30 am to go on a real long drive at the end of a hectic week has no substitute. Return was 3 hours plus for me. For Khoj it was 4 hours to get back home. For the folks from Gaziabad I suspect it would have been 300 kms or more for the return trip.

You know - we again met up this morning at Barista on NH8.

This is fast becoming a favorite place for DBhpians to meet up.

Pictures below from the meet this morning. The meet was impromptu and fixed late last night as a result we couldn't put it up on forum.

Thanks for the kind words. Yes, a TL is needed for this meet. It was super awesome - as the pictures and, hopefully, video will show. For those who missed this one - there was good food too at the end of a lovely day. A teaser from me as well.

I am already looking forward to the next meet and drive to Narkanda (23-25 February). :thumbup:

AZ911 · 27th February 2018, 09:30
