Siliguri to Darjeeling - Indian Roadie Preferred Route/ Motoring Route

Siliguri to Sukna = 8 kms 

(Siliguri_Sukna), 

Siliguri to Kurseong = 45 kms 

(Siliguri_Kurseong), 

Siliguri to Ghoom = 69 kms 

(Siliguri_Ghoom), 

Siliguri to Darjeeling = 77 kms 

(Siliguri_Darjeeling) 

A signage board in Siliguri (WB) which gives roadies a decent idea of the distances and motoring route to Kurseong, Ghoom, Darjeeling. 

The ubiquitous white letterings on green overhead road signages give roadies a fair idea of which place is where and the distances of places from where the photos are clicked. 

Get your bearings right by reading these boards. 

I (Deep Banerjee, Founder - Indian Roadie and associated forums) never use online navigation maps while on highways. The overhead signage boards are my best bet.

Indian Roadie Drive For Food with Adv Abhijit Sarkar to Chowrasia Chats, Salt Lake on 2023-03-10

We fellow roadies keep ourselves busy with our own profession but keep meeting up at the slightest pretext. 

On Friday 2023-03-10, Indian Roadie Adv Abhijit Sarkar phoned me at around 3.45 pm saying that he was close to my place and if it would be possible for me to meet up for a fast bite since he had about 90 odd minutes to spare before his next scheduled professional meeting. By 4.15 pm I was already seated in his Ford Ecosport. We leisurely drove to Chowrasia Chats, HB290, Sec - 3, Salt Lake. 

It was a true Indian Roadie Drive For Food before he dropped me back somewhere on the EM Bypass. 

The moments of the impromptu Indian Roadie GTG are being shared with you.

Tenacity Rejuvenation Drive - 1. Leaving Puri on 2013-01-13

That's me, Deep Banerjee, Founder - Indian Roadie and Associated ForumsOfIndian Roadie, with my Mahindra Scorpio during sunrise in Puri, Odisha in mid January 2013. 

Two hectic days of interactive corporate training, with me as the trainer ended the previous night at 11.45 pm. 

On that particular chilly morning while everybody slept peacefully, cosily tucked under blankets, I was heading to Visakhapatnam for the onward journey to Pune via Rajahmundry, Vijaywada, Hyderabad, Sholapur. 

The solo drive for work (a passion to develop a VC funded B-school as a Centre of Excellence in Sales & Marketing studies) originated from Pune on 2012-12-20 and concluded in Pune on 2013-01-16 after covering 5720 kms. 

P.S: Note my fetish for squeaky clean wheels. 

Remembering the long drives crisscrossing India for work (starting and ending in Pune everytime) in my Mahindra Scorpio Micro Hybrid (Special Edition) in 2012-13 which resulted in the rollout of #IndianRoadie in May 2013. 

I used to be so mighty happy with my unbeatable #MightyMuscularScorpio/ #MahindraScorpio.

Tata Altroz owner crashed and thanked Ratan Tata

FaBo threw up another case of a DKL (desh ka loha/ vocal for local) Altroz owner who banged his car into another car in March 2023 and felt proud of it 😡. 

Insights study of typical behavioral traits of most nouveau rich first time car buyers reveal that they mostly choose brands from Tata Motors passenger vehicles because they strongly believe that the NCAP rating will save their lives after crashing their cars. Listed below are how they use their cars and how they behave after crashing. 

First, one particular brand of DKL owners go about banging their cars on all other road users to check the build quality of their DKL. Nobody does that intentionally, it's just that they are irresponsible and incapable drivers who are NOT #HighOnCognition. 

Second, they thank the octogenarian Chairman of the company that manufactured the car. 

Third, the ones who crash are mostly nouveau rich first time car buyers. After crashing realization dawns into them that a substantial sum of money will have to be spent from their savings. Naturally, they go about asking every Tom, Dick and Harry on social media about possible expenses to get their DKL roadworthy. It has been observed that fanbois of the brand  comment figures which are far from reality. 

Fourth, the owner of the incapacitated DKL starts enquiring about insurance claim procedures and the possible outgo from pocket. 

Fifth, the DKL owner gets back his car from the workshop after 3 - 5 months with the feeling that he has got back his car in factory finish condition, which in reality is far from truth. 

Indian Roadie is committed to seeing matured roadies and not fanbois on road! There will be no stop in exposing the wrongdoers (squid drivers). 

Drive responsibly. You don't have to test everything what the car manufacturers claim. Always remember that #BuildQualityOfDriversBrainMatters. 

#IndianRoadie is committed to spreading this message for the well being of every road user. 

P.S: Needless to mention, there are a lot of responsible and matured DKL owners. It should be their responsibility to correct the squid drivers who bring shame to the responsible ones. Instead of feeling offended, the responsible ones should use social media to correct their irresponsible brethrens.

Another irresponsible DKL (desh ka loha) Tata Harrier owner escaped death along with four others in the car in end February 2023 and posted in social media in the same lines as is typical of these retards. 

He wrote something like four of them escaped unhurt because of build quality although the car has been totalled 😡 
This dangerous trend of self testing the veracity of claims made by Tata Motors Ltd about their cars has reached dizzying heights! I wouldn't have minded if the driver and his co-passengers weren't alive today. However, I am feeling paranoid about the thousands of lives which are at risk because of these buggers who hit the road everyday with their DKLs.
