Thunderbird Fling...!!
Somewhere in September 2007...I came back from the office at 3:30 in the morning... nobody was home... I cudnt sleep so browsed through a lot of travelogues on the net with a glass of milk... at 5:30, I cud do it no more... I wanted a ride... Called up Ankur, who was still sleeping... took the camera... wore a jacket and gloves and picked up his Thunderbird... I was riding on the NH-8 after a few minutes, early in the morning... it was lovely... After Travelling for about 50-55 kms (i guess)... There was a bridge which i had to cross... I looked n it seemed there was some water body flowing below...Which was dry now...n there was a kuccha mud filled steep slope to go towards one of the ends of the old pillars of the bridge... I had to get down and push the enfi on the 1st gear... as soon as i stepped on that side, it was just perfect ... wot i wanted at that point in time... I cud see land mass on 3 sides as i was standing at a height and there were extra-large steps to go down...towards the dried bed... Cant describe the place much... check out in the pics... Took a u-turn after spending an hour there.... Had paranthas on the way... parked the Thunderbird back at Ankur's place.. went hope and slept... A sleep after a bad bout of insomnia for days...!!


And yes i forgot to mention that i happened to meet a few members of GODS with their superbikes at the McDonalds, Manesar...
Cool Dudes and Cool Bikes...!!

Upload the pics on any image hosting site e.g. flickr, photobucket, imageshack, tinypic, etc. Once uploaded the sites will generate a IMG link for every photo, just copy and paste the img link here.

Cheers,
Shamik

Well done, Ashish!

(Didn't exactly swoon as I'm not really a bike person!)
For most biker types this could cause unexpected results and wetness!

Lovely pics Ashish, looks like Doc lost some weight, though his 12r still looks damn good.
