  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  On Day 8, the last day, of the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris, the distance to ride wasn’t much. A late start to the day was on the cards owing to the morning mist and fog at Ooty. And everyone was looking forward to make it to Bandipur pronto. At the pre-ride briefing, while most riders [...]

Not many of the riders on the tour are twitter users but nonetheless, they showed up by the poolside at Hotel Issac’s Regency and participated in [...]

  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127

• Quick Byte #12, The Ride To Ooty

  
  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  It just gets better and better with each passing day. Day 7 on the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris was tough but exhilarating for the riders. Tough because of the ascent. No more because of bad roads. By the time riders reached Support Station 2, they had clocked 40 odd kilometers, riding uphill all the way.It [...]

• Quick Byte #11, The White Arrows

  
  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  The BSA Tour Of Nilgiris moves through concrete jungles, real jungles, villages and other remote places, during its course. Today we are moving from the state of Kerela to Tamil Nadu. With such a route plan, it is easy for a BSA TFN rider to miss a junction, an unsuspecting turn and land up in [...]

• Digest #3, K2K aka Karnataka to Kerela

  
  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  The BSA Tour Of Nilgiris passes through three states. Five days on the tour and we were still in Karnataka. It was time to change gears and meet the neighbors. The day started a bit late than usual. I’d blame the slumber that was induced by the oil massages on Rest Day. Nonetheless, all riders [...]

• Digest #2, The Rest Day

  
  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  I’m wondering if it was a rest day or the most action packed day of the tour so far. Agreed that cycling today was zilch but action on the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris is not limited to just pedaling away to glory. Day 5 on the tour could not have been any better. Riders woke [...]

  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  Being on the road for 4 days and that too, as riders on the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris is a challenging proposition, by any means. If that wasn’t enough, the roads from Madikeri to Irrupu yesterday, literally, set the ass on fire. Nonetheless, a handful of BSA TFN riders did make the cut, by riding [...]

• Quick Byte #7, The Support Stations

  
  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  In popular parlance, these are called pit-stops but they are no less than life-lines when riders are toiling it hard on the road. The BSA Tour Of Nilgiris ensures that riders are well taken care off while pedaling for hundreds of kilometers during a day. Support Stations are located throughout the route, mostly 30kms ...

  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  Until Dec 16th 2009, when the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris was kicked off, I considered myself a quintessential one. But definitions have changed since then. I maybe a dude still but I’m certainly not a biker. The real bikers are all riding on the BSA TFN. So if you’re not one of them, please refrain [...]

  Some 30 years ago, a couple of friends back in France where motorcycle fanatics, nothing Japanese.

• Quick Byte #5, Damn … err The Dam

  
  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  The first support station was merely 24 kms away when the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris riders started from Hassan today morning. On testing terrain they rode, the road throwing a pothole at them, every now and then. The sight of the support station was a relief but the location was simply out of the world, [...]

  Me ... A Geek ... No way!! — Authority: 127
  Nope! I’m not referring to the scantily clad, pelvic thrusts yielding PYTs. And if you happen to be one, please don’t take it personally as I mean no offense. Being on the BSA Tour Of Nilgiris is a challenge for everyone involved. Yes, I mean for each and everyone involved but I’d give it to [...]
