Like men, machines can give you a surprise at the last minute and that’s the news from the Raid’s camp.
Where Raju Verma and Khushwant Randhawa failed to make into the stage one even before the event begun, bikers Ganesh Pakhe and friend had to call it off when they lost their way before reaching Gumma and thus, ending up in loosing a lap of good time.
Ashish Moudghil who was leading at first didn’t finish at number one for the day but his place was taken by Bhaskar Ramani of Red Rooster Racing Bangalore. Similarily, team Ceat’s Klaudia Honeder who looked promising of holding a good position went down straight to 11th place.
In the Adventure Trial section, Jitender Bajwa, ( Gypsy) sponsor of Team Godwin was in the lead as Ashish Kataria and K.Prasad ( Mahindra Scorpio) give him a tough time for the top position.
Day two is on! Follow the adventure!
