Vivek babu asked me to ride his Hunk and I cheerfully agreed...nothing like hitting the road on Friday evening :) . Rahul and Nitin followed us and we were on our way to F C Road. Vivek came up with a technological breakthrough and handed over his Navigator phone to Nitin and asked him to follow the instructions. Now we sped off towards our destination with Vivek being my navigator...roads started to get complicated. We traveled around 15-17 kms and took several wrong turns and traffic lights before we reached the "Apache Pub" (I didn't mind riding the bike though). There are 2 Apache pubs on F C Road but Vivek asked us to land up in the 2nd one coz of only couple entry in the 1st one. The moment we parked our bikes there we had our eyes lit up :)
Apache pub is not that spacious but cozy enough to be with friends. Inside the pub the crowd was decent enough...grp of gals...couples and of course majority ...ppl like us...lukhe.:). The crowd out there seemed to be regular members of Apache as they were expecting every song being played and they did sing along aloud :). As per Vivek's request we ordered "Go To Hell" pitcher with snacks. At first we thought we are drinking "Roohafaza" bcoz of the taste and color but later realized its far better than that. The content of the drink are Gin, Vodka, Whisky, Rum, Beer, Fanta, Cola and Sprite. After having the first pitcher we thought to throw in some light on CRM so I called up Nandan. Nandan quickly agreed and sped to the pub within 20 mins. We guys started the 2nd round and by that time even we were up to the pitch of English music bands ...most of the numbers being of Linkin Park...no1 band in places like these... however Nitin wanted to hear some bollywood numbers like Kajare but to our disappointment it was not to be. Anyways we head banged and ordered 3 more pitchers. The clock stroke 12:30 am and we were presented the bill.
We got out of the pub and cool breeze welcomed us all. We all were drunk so no question of who can be a trusted rider...I took the chance and as usual loved riding bike after getting alocholuted :) .We hit the road and suddenly decided to have coffee somewhere. CCD was the first choice of all but we couldn't find any near by. After wandering 2-3 kms for coffee shop, we decided to hit the Pune station....CumSome the Pune station cafeteria remains open 24 X 7. We all reached there and of course there was college crowd get together ...sipping coffee having cakes and taking snaps...we had cold coffee topped with those gals around :) After sipping the not so cold Cold coffee we left the place.. Thanks to railways Mamta and Laalu...or whomsoever we got our coffee..
Nandan took his way back and rest of us sped off towards Magarpatta...at 1:30 am in Iris magarpatta... in the lawns...we laid down and started chit chat...Life is made of moments like these and sure my Pune Chapter begins on this Note ...
signing off..cheers
