RoadTrip To Alibaug on 11th August

Hello All,

It has been long that we are very busy with our work, projects and schedules so now is the time to take a break and enjoy !!!

As dicussed, We have planned long road trip on bikes. Following are details of the trip :

Destination : Alibaug
Date : Leaving on 11th October 2008, Saturday (in morning) & return on Sunday probably after the lunch.
Approx KMs one way : 150km

Accomodation Confirmed : Kaivalya Farms http://www.kaivalyafarms.com/

How To Reach : From Mumbai/Thane: Take Mumbai-Goa Highway. Reach Vadkhal Naka and take Alibagh Road. Just 300 metres before Alibagh city, take Road to Murud/Roha. After 3 kms. One road goes to Roha and one goes to Murud. You can reach by both roads to the site. If you take Roha Road, Take a right turn at village SAHAN, which connects to Murud Road. It’s just a km. from here on your left side.
If you take Murud road after Alibagh, come upto Nagaon-Hatale and take a left turn for Village PALHE and after about ½ kms. You will find the property on your right side.


Following are the list of members & their payment details :

Some suggestions & important factors are :

1. Fuel Calculation : What we have thought is, rather than calculating the fuel individually & tying up the pillion partner with a particular rider or a single rider may be in loss; We can consolidate the petrol required for all bikes on an average & divide with number of members.
For eg. We will consider any bike which gives a fair average, not too less or not too high for an instance Ajays Unicorn. If unicorn consumes Rs. 500 petrol (to & fro) , we will multiply with total bikes & the total amount will be divided individually. Just a wild example, in case of 4 bikes & 8 members a total will be 2000 Rs & individual share will be 250.
Any other suggestions or alterations are welcome.

2. Individual share : Am not sure how to calculate this, could be on individual consumption or a fixed total share. But personally i think each person should have a minimum of atleast Rs. 1000-1200. It may vary, & could be discussed later. Remember we will be spending maximum of day time & night time of saturday & sunday till afternoon. Anybody if possible can carry little more money in case of any urgencies.

3. Accomodation : This I am trying to do something, since we have more number of people we may try to get some cheap place as it could be little comforatable of staying with a family (my relatives). Nothing is confirmed yet, but will try some best way out. Lets hope we get to stay in for free.

4. Dos & Donts : This section may sound funny, but its equally important. Basically, the reason of this point is to ensure we dont get stucked in any bad situation & make our trip pleasant & full of fun.
No speeding or rash riding( i know its for me ), try to stay together or at a closest distance.
No playing or teasing any other rider while riding.
Every pillion rider (back seater) will try to keep an eye or communicate with fellow riders.
No bike will wait on any stop alone, in case for wait or rest all bikers will halt at once together.
Every pillion rider will wear a helmet so lets arrange as required.

5. Ensure Bike in a good state : Dear riders, please ensure your bike is in a proper riding condition. Service your bike with engine oil change (important), check clutch wire, brakes, horns, lights, tyre pressure, etc.

More of the above details will be updated as we discuss.

If I left out any point or you have any suggestion for anything, please free to write it down rather than discussing in person or on a phone. This will keep all other members updated.

So lets make this roadtrip a pleasant, enjoyful & memorable. I expect all above people to join in.
