I am thrilled after 3 consecutive days of days of back to back Indian Roadie GTG in same spot in Kolkata on Wednesday 2022-11-23, Thursday 2022-11-24, Friday 2022-11-25.
On 25th, met Mrigaraj Baruah who's driving his 5 yrs old maroon petrol Honda City absolutely solo from Guwahati to Bangalore via Kolkata.
He had left his residence in Guwahati at 5.45 am on 24th. After driving via Fulbari - Ghoshpukur - Islampur, at around 2.30 pm he crossed Dalkhola. At 7.00 pm he was on Farakka Barrage over the Ganga River. At 9.15 pm he had checked in at a hotel in Baharampore, Murshidabad after traversing a whopping 870 kms.
Mrigaraj left Baharampore at 7.15 am on 25th and reached his hotel at Rabi Thakurer More at 1.45 pm via Krishnanagar, Mogra, Delhi Road, Dankuni.
Although I had suggested that he follows the Guwahati - Siliguri - Purnea - Darbhanga - Muzaffarpur - Patna - Patna - Aurangabad - Sasaram - Rewa - Jabalpur - Nagpur - Hyderabad - Bangalore route, he was insistent that he would drive via Kolkata exclusively to meet me. Thank you so much, Mrigaraj 👍
Mrigaraj, Adv Abhijit Sarkar and I (Deep Banerjee) met up at our regular #IndianRoadieAddaJoint at Mio Amore, IA265, Salt Lake, Kolkata for the filling Chicken 65 rolls and steaming coffee at Sweet N Sour next door at 7.45 pm and bid good bye at 9.45 pm. Besides the unmissable photo session, we discussed innumerable topics of mutual interest.
The meet would have continued had he not have to leave Kolkata early on 26th towards Vizag.
P.S: Friends in Kolkata must have surely started wondering where on earth is Rabi Thakurer More in 'culturally rich' WB.
Guess, guess. Keep guessing 🤭
