00:00:00,00 --> 00:00:08,400
Hello guys welcome back to my channel Follow 
jack

2
00:00:08,500 --> 00:00:13,300
we successfully finished Indonesia series 
and returned empty handed

3
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:18,200
yes after finishing the trip we're planning 
a place

4
00:00:18,300 --> 00:00:23,100
and I thought to have a ride with my vehicle

5
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,900
after Thenkasi and Theni we did Indonesia 
trip

6
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,800
time is 7.25 and I planned to leave from 
6 AM

7
00:00:31,900 --> 00:00:36,700
but I'm late as usual and I packed my things 
well

8
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:41,600
if you aske me where I’m heading

9
00:00:41,700 --> 00:00:46,500
I planned to leave solo

10
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:51,400
I got an information about a group ride now

11
00:00:51,500 --> 00:00:56,300
I hd that experience twice in my life

12
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:01,200
Usually when I owned a Himalayan

13
00:01:01,300 --> 00:01:06,100
in 2017-18 was my first and last group ride

14
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:11,000
and after that due to poor cooperation

15
00:01:11,100 --> 00:01:15,900
of vehicle, I gave that away and using this 
one

16
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,800
I thought will they accept this bike for 
group ride

17
00:01:20,900 --> 00:01:25,700
the people there will have higher CC bikes 
so

18
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,600
they need to accept us as we need to ride 
along with their speed.

19
00:01:30,700 --> 00:01:35,500
if one or two persons it will be okay and

20
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:40,400
we need to match 20 people and I applied 
with doubt but I got it

21
00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:45,300
so credits to number plate gowtham along 
with

22
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:50,200
wrong turn club sajath, they're the ones 
who organises this group ride

23
00:01:50,300 --> 00:02:29,200
"Rock music"

24
00:02:29,300 --> 00:02:34,100
approximately 50-60 persons are coming in 
this group ride.

25
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:39,000
and I'm so much excited to meet new people

26
00:02:39,100 --> 00:02:43,900
and the experience going to have

27
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,800
the bond and friendship I'm going to get 
is the best thing in travelling

28
00:02:48,900 --> 00:02:53,700
that is a wonderful thing

29
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,600
and both me and my bike had loose bolt and 
nuts!

30
00:02:58,700 --> 00:03:03,500
no we fixed everything and I hope everything 
works well

31
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:08,400
the group ride is starting from Chennai to 
Thekadi

32
00:03:08,500 --> 00:03:13,300
It’s a three day plan and I will explain 
it later

33
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,200
they're starting the ride and coming from 
3.30 A.M

34
00:03:18,300 --> 00:03:23,100
I think they gave breakfast timing in ulundoorpet 
and now probably they may have their breakfast

35
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:28,000
so it will take 2hours for us to reach Trichy

36
00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:32,900
so I planned to reach theni directly because

37
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,100
as we can’t keep up with the speed of their 
bikes

38
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:42,000
so if we move forward it will be easy for 
them to reach us

39
00:03:42,100 --> 00:03:46,900
we're crossing the famous saastra college 
in Trichy and time is 7.30

40
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:55,400
"Pleasant music"

41
00:03:55,500 --> 00:04:00,300
the specialty in November and december are

42
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:05,200
we can see greenery everywhere as it’s constantly 
raining

43
00:04:05,300 --> 00:04:10,100
we can't see any dry areas

44
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,000
for the first time we can observe paddy-fields 
with complete greenery here

45
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:19,900
it resembles what i saw in Thenkasi

46
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:24,800
it's also pleasant weather here

47
00:04:24,900 --> 00:04:29,700
it's cloudy here

48
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:34,600
so we have reached the Trichy toll and it 
took me 40 minutes

49
00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:39,500
so speed was maintained at 70-80 by me

50
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:44,400
not that much fast or slow and we can survive 
free access to the toll and

51
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:49,300
if they charged for bikes it will be hard 
and I guess it’ll happen soon

52
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:54,200
as we can see the inflation issues, spit 
cautiously

53
00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:59,100
even though the world has changed

54
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:04,000
the habit of spitting on roads never changed, 
a short route has been displayed

55
00:05:04,100 --> 00:05:08,900
okay it tells not to enter town and have 
to enter outer ring road

56
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,800
this road? It’s been 1 year since this road 
has been layed

57
00:05:13,900 --> 00:05:18,700
I'm entering for the first time

58
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,600
okay it's Rameshwaram - Madurai and it's 
like Madurai joint

59
00:05:23,700 --> 00:05:28,500
time is 8.30 am and it’s the time when school 
and college students usually commute

60
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,600
so it's a hectic thing to go through town

61
00:05:31,700 --> 00:05:36,500
it will be a traffic jam from Sevvaikudi 
to Milkcolony

62
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:41,400
instead of going there we can use this freeway

63
00:05:41,500 --> 00:05:46,300
as it's empty, look those paddy fields

64
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:51,200
road is on another level !

65
00:05:51,300 --> 00:05:56,100
"Pleasant music"

66
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:00,500
"Train Horn"

67
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:05,400
okay, we have railway crossing in our path 
also

68
00:06:05,500 --> 00:06:10,300
oh it's so much crowd in a short time

69
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:15,200
"Pleasant music"

70
00:06:15,300 --> 00:06:20,100
I can thank Gmaps for suggesting this greenery 
way

71
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:25,000
Because we'll travel on highway

72
00:06:25,100 --> 00:06:29,900
I think this willl join in NH-45

73
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:34,800
actually it's right and I'm searching for 
a shop to have breakfast

74
00:06:34,900 --> 00:06:39,700
okay, I guess they’ll have idly, bro do you 
have any food?

75
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:44,600
no breakfast? okay is there any other hotels 
in this road?

76
00:06:44,700 --> 00:06:48,100
oh nearby...thank you brother!

77
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:53,000
he said there will be a hotel nearby and 
my stomach got upset of not having anything

78
00:06:53,100 --> 00:06:56,900
okay I found the shop

79
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,800
Christ University is the college I studied 
but this one is the Trichy version

80
00:07:01,900 --> 00:07:06,700
I studied in Tanjore , okay

81
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,400
he is making dosas!

82
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:15,300
usually I always prefer vegetarian foods 
in travelling time

83
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,200
at any cost it won’t disturb us

84
00:07:20,300 --> 00:07:25,100
I got piping hot idly from them I ordered 
4 idlies

85
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:30,000
then I resumed my trip and that pint a surprise 
was waiting for us

86
00:07:30,100 --> 00:07:34,900
they had this Husky dog outside and see how 
cute it is

87
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:39,800
it looks like owner's dog, hello!

88
00:07:39,900 --> 00:07:44,700
What’s your name? okay chill buddy

89
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:49,600
okay don’t bite me please!

90
00:07:49,700 --> 00:07:54,500
bye , are you willing to come along with 
me in the ride

91
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,400
we will restart our journey now

92
00:07:59,500 --> 00:08:04,300
Exactly Theni is 160 Km from here

93
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:09,200
Sathis also had breakfast now and resumed 
his ride from tollgate

94
00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:14,100
I think it's samayapuram tollgate and it 
will take

95
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:19,000
him 1-1.5 hours to reach us and I told I'll 
wait on the next stop

96
00:08:19,100 --> 00:08:23,900
so he will ride continuously and

97
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:28,800
we can stop at a rest pint in 30-45 minutes

98
00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:33,700
when I thought I was the only person who 
rides in 100cc scooter, I got a company now

99
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:38,600
he is none other than the satheesh I have 
mentioned he is also from Chennai

100
00:08:38,700 --> 00:08:43,500
his bike is hero honda glamour with 100cc

101
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,400
We have texted and planned to go along

102
00:08:48,500 --> 00:08:53,300
but nothing is happening right to our plans

103
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:58,200
like roadblock, our vehicle is showing some 
issues

104
00:08:58,300 --> 00:09:03,100
my scooter made auto sounds in midway

105
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:08,000
you have a surprise, I think you already 
found that

106
00:09:08,100 --> 00:09:12,900
while riding in highway the sound has changed

107
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:17,800
I thought the exhaust got burned but

108
00:09:17,900 --> 00:09:22,700
the exhaust valve head got loosened

109
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:27,600
so if we can find a mechanical shop

110
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:32,500
we can fix that head

111
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,400
brother, exhaust head got loosened, can you 
fix that?

112
00:09:37,500 --> 00:09:42,300
can I put it on side-stand ?, it gives me 
many hardships

113
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:47,200
Recently I did full service for this scooter

114
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:52,100
what are you saying? -gasket is damaged

115
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:57,000
guys our gasket is damaged

116
00:09:57,100 --> 00:10:01,900
so spares are not available here

117
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,800
they said me to try in Dindugul, but I heard 
that the showroom has been closed

118
00:10:06,900 --> 00:10:11,700
they also closed ourselves !

119
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:16,600
okay! sound is fine will ride till Theni 
and it give race bike vibes

120
00:10:16,700 --> 00:10:21,500
and there is a showroom in theni

121
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:26,400
I also enquired them so they will call me 
if they have spares

122
00:10:26,500 --> 00:10:31,300
till then we'll maintain in 60-70 and

123
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:36,200
mechanic said no harm will happen, so I'm 
riding hopefully

124
00:10:36,300 --> 00:10:41,100
Theni is 90Kms from here

125
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:46,000
I got the info that spares are ready in Theni

126
00:10:46,100 --> 00:10:50,900
I have to call them to confirm once I get 
their numbers from my peers

127
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,800
our life is smooth because of these good 
peoples

128
00:10:55,900 --> 00:11:00,700
Hello brother, did they called from tanjore 
showroom regarding one issue?

129
00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:05,600
yeah my gasket was broken and I'm in a ride

130
00:11:05,700 --> 00:11:10,500
yeah I'll reach theni a while, I'll talk 
with you later

131
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:15,400
guys just now I spoke with him and he sent 
his location

132
00:11:15,500 --> 00:11:20,300
so he promised to fix the issue once I reached 
their showroom

133
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:25,200
thank god! this happened now before joining 
in the group

134
00:11:25,300 --> 00:11:30,100
sorry satheesh, as planned to meet

135
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:35,000
and ride along with him won’t happen as of 
now

136
00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:39,900
solo ride till theni to fix this issue

137
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,800
I reached vespa showroom of theni in 1 hour

138
00:11:44,900 --> 00:11:49,700
I placed vehicle in the garage and everyone 
went for lunch break

139
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,600
Luckily there was a guy inside

140
00:11:54,700 --> 00:11:59,500
I explained him the issue and I finished 
my lunch during the service

141
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:04,400
finally I stopped at this showroom and now 
I'm relived

142
00:12:04,500 --> 00:12:09,300
they advised me to have lunch while they 
fix

143
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:14,200
time is 1.45 here and

144
00:12:14,300 --> 00:12:19,100
our group haven’t left Dindigul yet, so we 
have some time

145
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:24,000
if they fixed soon, it’ll be fine as I also 
informed them in the group

146
00:12:24,100 --> 00:12:28,400
this is the showroom in Theni

147
00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:33,800
it's called KPP motors and they responded 
quickly

148
00:12:33,900 --> 00:12:38,700
they also sent the location and guided me

149
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:43,600
I'm leaving my bags to have lunch at nearby 
restaurant

150
00:12:43,700 --> 00:12:48,500
I hope it’ll get fixed

151
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:53,400
there is a brand new scooter is here which 
is same colour as our bike, but it looks 
plain

152
00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:58,300
let's ask them for an exchange? no they will 
beat me with slippers !

153
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:03,200
this vehicle gives me so much of headache

154
00:13:03,300 --> 00:13:08,100
they said some nut and bolts are loose

155
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:13,000
they tightened with new bolts

156
00:13:13,100 --> 00:13:17,900
we'll join our group as everybody is calling 
me now

157
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,800
we'll leave from this Theni town

158
00:13:22,900 --> 00:13:27,700
now there will be a petrol bunk in Chinnamannur

159
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:32,200
so will head towards there,

160
00:13:32,300 --> 00:13:37,100
Showroom Service was too quick without any 
slacking

161
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,500
it saved our time and I did my lunch too

162
00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:46,400
I had 2 hours time difference with the group 
riders

163
00:13:46,500 --> 00:13:51,300
but due to the halting now our time got synchronised 
and I met some in bypass

164
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:56,200
guys our group got divided into two teams

165
00:13:56,300 --> 00:14:01,100
as some coming slowly, maybe they face issues 
like us

166
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:06,000
so 1st team went ahead now

167
00:14:06,100 --> 00:14:10,900
I took a nice drone shot and they passed 
during that time

168
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,800
I think it's around 15 bikes

169
00:14:15,900 --> 00:14:20,700
one guy had Himalayan and he waits for me

170
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,600
he calmly responded to me

171
00:14:25,700 --> 00:14:30,500
Brothers do cross road with caution

172
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:35,400
guys this is our group

173
00:14:35,500 --> 00:14:40,300
sir![SPEAKER NOISE]

174
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:45,200
he said he will meet us in the spot

175
00:14:45,300 --> 00:14:50,100
mukesh is coming behind me and you're the 
first to cross me

176
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:51,500
-who're with you?

177
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,400
I'm riding alone, -your bike got breakdown, 
right?

178
00:14:55,500 --> 00:15:00,300
yeah I got it fixed, silencer's nut issue 
and I fixed it

179
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:06,600
[UNKNOWN WORD] -they said about this junction...

180
00:15:06,700 --> 00:15:11,500
the junction before you guys catched the 
bridge

181
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:16,400
I turned there only and I waited to take 
one drone shot....

182
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:21,300
so it will be awkward for everyone when you 
guys meet for the first time

183
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:26,200
and we’ll envy of other's bike and when we 
wait for other team

184
00:15:26,300 --> 00:15:31,100
and leaving together made us to mingle

185
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:36,000
and in Theni 15-20 Kms Chinnamanur is located

186
00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:40,900
and I took a drone shot and we had a convo 
with others

187
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,800
"Pleasant music"

188
00:15:45,900 --> 00:15:50,700
we took beautiful drone shots

189
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,600
near a rice field, the idea was give by Number 
plate Gowtham

190
00:15:55,700 --> 00:16:00,500
and he went there before of us

191
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:05,400
and choose the spot and then organised everything

192
00:16:05,500 --> 00:16:10,300
we took cool drone shots which was pleasing 
to see

193
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:15,200
During the sunset the location was terrific

194
00:16:15,300 --> 00:16:20,100
now we're going to a campsite near Thekadi

195
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:25,000
and it shows travel time is 1.10 hours

196
00:16:25,100 --> 00:16:29,900
and it's like entering a forst as it's getting 
too dark

197
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,800
and sceneries are amazing here

198
00:16:34,900 --> 00:16:39,700
Kerala means rains and vice versa

199
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:44,600
I don’t know why raning here will be fun

200
00:16:44,700 --> 00:16:49,500
each drop will make you to admire

201
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:54,400
it's slight downpour while heading to thekadi 
and all riders

202
00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:59,300
stopped to put rain covers and splittted 
but our group

203
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:04,200
will give updates in our group so we will

204
00:17:04,300 --> 00:17:09,100
reach the same location and at one point 
we felt when we'll reach campsite

205
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:14,000
but once we reached the site we thought they 
will rest but

206
00:17:14,100 --> 00:17:18,900
it was total opposite and we introduced ourselves

207
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,800
it was a camp fire with intro session and

208
00:17:23,900 --> 00:17:28,700
each said their origin and experience and 
we learnt about each individual

209
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:33,600
and this day one ending was with food only

210
00:17:33,700 --> 00:17:38,500
so we had hot rotis and chicken gravies

211
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:43,400
and we took rest in our tents

212
00:17:43,500 --> 00:17:48,300
and had a blissful sleep

213
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:53,200
mind was refreshed when I saw the view of 
the campsite

214
00:17:53,300 --> 00:17:58,100
when I doubted whether I can go to a group 
ride with a scooter

215
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:03,000
they accepted me and gave opportunity to 
have new friends

216
00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:07,900
I'm thankful to Gowtham and wrongturn club

217
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,800
you may saw my day 1 journey, ven I had scooter 
issues

218
00:18:12,900 --> 00:18:17,700
I reached my destination with my sasha, yes 
it's my scooter's name

219
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:22,600
so day 2 will start the brotherhood bonding

220
00:18:22,700 --> 00:18:27,500
you will see beautiful moments of this winter 
ride in next video, thanks for watching this 
video guys

221

224
00:18:42,300 --> 00:18:47,100


225
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,000
