BP Expressway

This weekend I'd been to Pune with a friend. He's got this car and wanted to drive on the Bombay Pune Expressway. Anyway after negotiating Andheri-Kurla road and JVLR all day, one wants to get loose and perhaps let the old car also flex itself. The fifth gear notch might just get clogged with dust otherwise.

Anyway we zipped into Pune and by evening zipped back. The picture alongside gives some indication of what flexing we did while on the highway. It is indeed a nice bit of engineering done by India. Perhaps for once, the toll that we pay for using this road is fully justified. It is indeed safe and fast to travel by this route - PROVIDED - you follow the rules. And PROVIDED youve not soaked yourself in whiskey before venturing out.

A nice journey. We didnt have anything to do in Pune. Just went to NDA and Khadakvasla. Nothing special, expecpt that we met CHRS while there. We never knew him, neither did he know us ever. But it was nice meeting him. Hope his kids are better now. A post on him is due soon.

And as said earlier, there wasnt any particular reason to drive to Pune. The journey was our destination.

(The chase is better than the kill).
