New Year at Panchgani

A Very happy new year to you all. I went to Panchgani/mahabaleshwar for new year. Spent two nights/3 days in the hills there and had so much fun :) We stayed in tents and had bonfires and stuff and it all was kinda cool. Ah well ... I went on my bike ... that was the real fun part. Though the drive was a short 100 kms only I still got long empty stretches to kinda stress test my bike as this was more or less my first trip outside the city. The bike does 80 easily and I don't see any reason it won't go beyond that, but I did'nt wanna put too much pressure on the piston and all on the first ride itself, so I kinda held back and did'nt go beyond 80. Good fun and good ride nevertheless. Oh !! Btw, did I mention we were two people weighing about 80-85 each and had about 10-15 kg of luggage too :) So .. you all know now ... I LOVE MY BIKE :)

Weekend Ride to Sinhagad

Last week was pretty boring and uneventful. My boss is on leave, the boss's second-in-command went on leave too and there was not much work to do. Basically feeling really bored and wondering wether I should have gone home too :)
Went to Mumbai last weekend and had a blast. Let me reiterate, in case I have'nt already done so, Toto's garage pub rocks !!
This weekend I got invited to lunch at a friends place, who has recently got married. So had nice homely food after a long time. And then went for a ride to this old fort called Sinhagad near pune. Just around 50km from my place. The ride was fun even though roads in Pune suck big time. I think Pune must be among the worst in the country as far as roads are concerned.

Symantec-Veritas and My Weekend :)

Guess what, this time I did'nt change a job for two months and the company got sold, so *technically* I'm in a new company !! Symantec has merged (acquired is a better word, IMHO) with Veritas in a 60-40 ratio, and the new entity plans to go with the Symantec name.

I went to bombay (mumbai !!) last weekend to party :) and meet a few friends. I had serious fun after a loooonnnngggg time. Especially Toto's garage pub rocks ... they play some of the most amazing metal I've heard in India. Way to go ... Toto's

Am back in office now and feeling very sleepy ... Boss is not in town, so I can afford to be lax ;)

The Last 4 months !!

Sorry for not posting for a while now. A lot has happened in these last 4 months. I've changed jobs ... yet again and with a location change too ... and am now working in pune with veritas software.
I've bought a bike, the 350 cc Royal enfield thunderbird and am having quite a bit of fun generally with it and on it :)

I'm happy with the work here though it tends to get boring at times, but I don't plan to change my job now for the next one year atleast :)
