23rd Nov,
Was the day for IBW Chai Pakoda Ride- pune city. And the venue was a famous shopping complex - phoenix market city.
Around 6.30 i reached the venue, already few riders were waiting for others n officials to arrive, slowly riders started appearing, few biking clubs also came in troops TRC pune, Hawks..etc. many solo riders were also at the location. So around 7.15 members of IBW gathered all bikers n informed about the ride, they explained the route, location and about the ride.

It was a tri city meet of aurangabad, ahmednagar and pune, so a center location was chosen, which was 100 km from pune. Few of superbikers flew as if the distance will increase if they delay. The Hawks - a duke riders club also started in style, but they did not followed group riding rules, which i thought they would. Being part of TRC, we had to follow rules, all of our riders fully geared started in 2 files, lead by 2 main riders who were guiding us.

The route was approx 100 km covering mostly villages with no traffic lights, everyone entering from everywhere, but we managed to be in group n ride safely.
Venue was good, beside the highway easily accessible from all of three cities, and having enough parking space for 200+ bikers n super bikers. On reached we parked properly, as usual all superbikers were posing with their bikes , few with modified silencer were trying to win the loudest bike prize. Out of blues, one of a biker started doing wheelie, stoppie in mid of high way, even when the organiser asked him to stop he did not, and how come watching a biker doing stunts stop other 199 doing same, but all followed the organizers request. But two of dukers went on doing stunts with out proper gears. Resulting he fell, but not injury. Finally after that no one performed any stunts n followed organizers request. Everyone had their tasty breakfast, few also brought IBW 2015 tickets. We had a huge selfie of 200 riders, enjoyed biking, brotherhood, took lots of photographs and returned.

Overall an awesome experience, not like i heard abt Mumbai chapter of Chai Pakoda Ride. Everything organized in a proper manner with complete details and main focus was on safety.
