Well I had only filled up couple of hundred bucks of petrol, but it ought to be enough to last me a month . Btw there is a chance that the prices would be slashed by couple of rupees, as the government always goes ahead and raises the prices and then lowers it

It will be touching Rs. 50 in Chennai.

This increase will add a bit more to my Coorg trip.

You must be kidding. How will they do that now. May be they will increase it further to get profit for the OIL Companies.

Moreover, they have the full majority. No chance.

Not sure if the crude prices went up. We've got used to this pre-election drop and post-election hike for some time now. Anyways- that's not going to deter us a bit from riding.

I guess it's 77$ a barrel. So it increased.
