Go- Karting Fellowship

Dear Tablers and Circlers

After a long time our Table had organised a Sport Fellowship on the
3rd May, Go-Karting, at Kart Attack, attended by 7 couples and
twinklers. We got off to a start at Karting in the evening, though it
was a little late to actually getting started as Trs. came in a
trickle. The early birds had already got of to a start. Mainly
consisting of Kaval, Mukesh, Lanky, Jaideep and, how can I forget,
Viagra. None other than Viagra of the Table, Hamir, out did everyone
in the number of rides, as expected, with his son Karan. Tw Tanveer
had a blast riding shotgun with Kaval and we got to see quite a few
moves from Kaval on the track in the Kart other than how he makes us
move on the dance floor with his choisest of tracks. Crs. Suba, Pooja,
Jaya, Vinita also took a spin around the track, special mention being
Vinita who got a lot more laps than the rest, some magic she must have
done on the track attendant. I too went for a spin and actually
enjoyied, no loved, no thrilled, my drive manily as I had no back seat
driver to bug me, ie my wife. Last but not the least Hamir ensured
that the Sampat family had the entire track to them selves in two
tandem Karts, Ham and Karan in one and Jidnyasa and Dwij in another.

It was stifling hot even late in the evening and all of us wanted to
get out and go for dinner. But that turned out even more complicated
than navigating the track at speed cause all the Fast & Furious wanted
to go to different places. Finally sense prevailed and we narrowed
down to 'Asiana' on OMR. VC Sunil had not come to the Go Karting but
did join us for the dinner, with Esha and the kids.( Mention food and
be certain that Sunil is there, Ha Ha just kidding, actually he HAD to
pick up Cr Sonu on the way). Drinks of all kinds flew around so did
the food. The only snag being that most of the food ended up being
served on Kaval's side of the table. The Twinklers werent behind in
having a blast creating a ruckus as the whole restaurant was to
ourselves. All in all everyone had their tummies full and wallets
quite empty by the time we wound up. It was a nice smooth drive back
to town through OMR.

Cheers
Sam.

A report on Bikers Day Out by MCRT 82

Tablers and Circlers A report on the BIKERS DAY OUT from Tr Venky chairman of 82. MKRT 181 had two particpants in Tr Bhavesh and Tr Hamir . Have a look at the snaps and then the report.




This mantra that I picked up from a road sign in the hills on the old Chennai to Bangalore highway, (NH 45) manifested itself in many ways on April 5th, 2009. “I haven’t ridden a bike in so long, I don’t have a bike, it’s just too hot, how will I wake up early on a Sunday morning”, etc are just some of the many questions (read excuses) that came flying across when Area 2’s first ever Bikers Day Out was announced, about 15 days before the actual event. Madras Central Round Table (MCRT) 82 who masterminded and executed the event as their third Inter Table activity, provided answers to most of the questions put forth by the desirous. With the support of Royal Enfield, MCRT 82 were able to arrange for 8 motorcycles for Area 2 tablers to ride while the rest chose to bring along their own steeds. For the first time in my relatively short stint in tabling, I was shocked to see 92% attendance of the pre-registrations and more importantly, every one of them reporting sharp at 6.45am at the venue. All of us at MCRT 82 would like to thank individually all the participants who took the effort to turn up on time and helped make the day special. Giving us company were friends of Tr. Sivaramakrishnan (Area Track Day & Treasure Hunt Convenor, MCRT 94) in their exotic imports. The display was ogle worthy and comprised Tr. Siva’s own Harley Davidson V-Rod, a Yamaha Warrior, a couple of Honda CBRs and MCRT 94 Chairman Neville’s Yamaha FZR. The agenda was simple – a pure ‘Boys’ day out. No families, just the men and their bikes. We were to drive down the scenic East Coast Road upto the point where it meets the Old Mahabalipuram Road, hit a Farm and engage in fulfilling gastronomic cravings and indulge in some ‘activity’. What ensued was beyond most people’s imagination. Having travelled about 45 minutes down the East Coast Road, time that included a couple of breaks for regrouping, KD, who was our Ride Leader from Royal Enfield suggested a path off the main road leading to the sea. Thick white sand greeted our Biker Boys as they virtually waded and paddled their way through. It was a good example of off road biking, and left most of our tablers out of breath. The ride through till the farm was uneventful. Good long roads, relatively low traffic and great rides saw us reach ‘The Farm’ by about 10am. A delectable spread of farm fresh food including Stuffed parathas and dosas with lip smacking accompaniments saw the tablers spend good amount of time refueling their selves. Fresh tender coconut water from the original fruit was the beverage of choice for the day. After breakfast, some chose to leave to attend to Sunday “family commitments” while others hung around to venture to the last leg of Bikers Day Out – the litmus test. The 70 acre farm has its own forest and two water bodies. The shallower of the two were chosen to test the water biking abilities of our tablers! They rode through rough terrain of sand and grass and plunged into a feet deep pool of water and slush, true biker style! Not one casualty reported and colgate-esque grins all around. Other activities included the Bikers trying to pick up cans of aerated water while riding. Tr. Uttam (RT 159) and Tr. Hamir (RT 181) excelled at this. Now we were all acquainted of our tablers’ abilities at grabbing cans but this enthusiasm for non alcoholic beverage was encouraging! We capped off an absolutely marvelous day on the roads (and off it!) by about half past noon and rode back to where we started from – the Royal Enfield Brand Store. Customary greetings were exchanged and everyone moved on to the rigours of their prosaic everyday lives. The response received has been encouraging. Most bikers asked for the event to be organized on a more regular basis. Some even wanted a slightly more elaborate ride spread over two days. A few plans seem to have hit the drawing board - you will hear from us as and when the same materializes. MCRT 82 would once again like to thank all the tablers who participated for turning up on time and in promised numbers, Royal Enfield and KD for the technical and logistic support and the team at The Farm who put together a great breakfast and offered us a venue which gave vent to our innate biking skills. Gratitude is also due to everyone involved who ensured that MCRT 82’s promise of safer roads was upheld with everyone turning up with helmets and avoiding any form of inebriating beverage through the course of the event. Just another day towards fulfilling MCRT 82’s promise of Miles Together.

181's Fellowship at Taj Blend

Chairman Mukesh all of a sudden decided to make us 181's beat the heat during a week day i.e. on Wednesday the 18th of March by playing a prank to make people come for a fellowship. He sent us a message " All please come to Blend,Taj Mount Rd @ 9.30 pm today for a surprise". This was taken pretty seriously by quite a few of us event though we knew he was pulling a fast one. There were 8 tablers and 7 ladies who were there for this fellowship and they were Vinay and Sweta , Sunil and Eesha , Rahul and Bhavna , Kaval and Sonu , Lankesh and Suba , Ganesh and Jenny , Bhavesh and Neeta , Chairman Mukesh and our Area HT Sanjay Ramaswami. We had a ball of a time with Riviera Wine going down our throats along with some good house music buzzing in our ears. The ladies as usual were naughty and the pictures will prove that statement and the men as usual busy in getting ragged by them...

The night started of at around 10pm and ended only at around 2 am on 19th of March'09 at Taj Mount Road. We had a few visiting tablers to the same venue like Tr.Suman from table 42 and a few others from Table 30. We were @ Blend till about 12.15 pm and then continued fellowship at the Coffee shop there with wine and dinner. The icing on the cake this day was how Sunil managed to lay his hands on 2 full plates of various kinds of desert free of cost for all of us... Sindhi Seth he proved him self to be ... LOL !

I think this kind of fellowship was long due and Chairman made it happen.... Chak De !!!!!
