IR GTG 2022-11-23 @ Mio Amore - Debdan Ray

Indian Roadie Debdan Ray drove his Renault Triber all the way from Mumbai/ Thane to Kolkata with wife, son and two Labrador daughters aged 4 and 9 in October 2022 just after Diwali. 

Debdan's route from Mumbai to Kolkata (Mumbai_Kolkata) was as follows: Thane - Pune - Solapur - Zaheerabad - Hyderabad (ORR) - Vijayawada - Elluru - Rajahmundry (4th Godavari River Bridge) - Annavaram - Vizag - Srikakulam - Girsola - Brahmapur - Barkul - Khurda - Bhubaneswar - Cuttack - Bhadrak - Balasore - Jaleswar - Kharagpur - Kolkata. 

He wanted to celebrate his own birthday with his aged parents and also had a marriage ceremony to attend which concluded recently. He is expected to work from home in Kolkata till the end of December 2022 or early January 2023. 

Although he had ordered for his own set of Indian Roadie Stickers way back in August 2022, he had specifically told me that he will personally collect those from me in Kolkata. 

On Wednesday 2022-11-23 evening we met up at our regular Indian Roadie Adda Joint in Salt Lake, Kolkata. I had the privilege of handing over the envelope of stickers and fixing a sticker on the rear windshield. 

The Chicken 65 Rolls, Fish Mustard Roll, Chicken Patties, Chocolate Crunch pastries at Mio Amore and multiple cups of coffee nearby while engaging ourselves in variety of subjects upto 10.15 pm made the hurriedly called Indian Roadie GTG truly fulfilling.

A first look of Aparnesh Mitra's spanking new Ford Endeavor 3.2 at Salt Lake on 2020-01-02 afternoon

It was a 150 mins long Indian Roadie GTG with fellow St Patrick's School alumni  and Indian Roadie regular Aparnesh Mitra (who's now located in Chennai) at Salt Lake on Thursday, 2020-01-02 afternoon.
Even after 30 hrs, I am awestruck by the capabilities of his fully loaded spanking new hulk, viz. Ford Endeavor 3.2 ltrs 5 cylinders fully automatic machine which he acquired for himself in Chennai in end December 2019.
He drove Chennai to Asansol to sport the very nostalgic WB-38 registration and thereafter, Asansol to Kolkata.
It was wonderful of him to squeeze out time from his hectic schedule to give me a 'deko' of his boy. Thank you, Aparnesh.
It was my pleasure to be his co-passenger for a short drive.
And most importantly, the smart boy now sports the ubiquitous red, white, black and white Indian Roadie Sticker with the chequered flag design.
The Fish Spring Roll, Fish Chop and the pure Chocolate Cake at a specific  Indian Roadie Adda Joint (viz. Mio Amore, IA Block, Salt Lake, Kolkata) added to the pleasure of the meet.
