Well, to introduce ourselves, Kedar ‘s the 'Driver-unlimited' and Shama’s the ' Navigator/ Co-Pilot/ DJ/ Chef/ Accountant and finally our walking talking GPS'. Our vacations mostly begin and end with our CAR, our second home. We usually reach our intended destination and never get lost, HOWEVER where we want to go and how we reach there may change every now and then. We love the outdoors and can’t see how people can stay indoors over the weekends. OUR weekend address reads Shama & Kedar Deo, Flying /Camping/Trekking/Cycling, Mountain / Lake/ Fort, Next to: nowhere near the city, Ph: Out of coverage Area. Kedar’s an Architect and an Interior Designer and his company takes on “Turn Key “ projects for Corporate Houses and Private Residences. Kedar’s a Paragliding Pilot and often takes Shama and other friends for Tandem Flights. Shama’s been a Nutritionist and an Aerobics Instructor and currently helping Kedar in the business.

shaishav singh & norah singh

Total Vote(s) : 709 | Total Testimonial(s) : 65

We are Shaishav and Norah a couple in our 25th year of marriage. I am an architect but run a business selling IT hardware and solutions for a leading multinational. Norah is an artist and paints for pleasure. While time does not permit me anymore but I used to be a hobbyist/professional photographer during my college days with my own darkroom.. Norah almost always will have her digital camera by her side and loves to capture moments which are special or memorable. She loves animals and would love to be able to engage in activities around pet care. Driving has always been my passion and Norah has always been part of any impromptu jaunts that we plan together. We have travelled extensively together covering parts of europe, and extensive travel around the Asia Pacific Rim. We enjoy discovering new locations and countries and often bypass the traditional tourist spots to get a flavour for the life of the locals. We are willing to experiment with local cuisines, explore markets and meet up with locals to catch the pulse of where we are. Both of us are foodies and love cooking. We share common goals while travelling together and enjoy our experiences during these journeys. We never thought anyone would be interested in the nitty gritties and are delighted to find a initiative (TGDC) that stretches a wide canvas for us to paint on. I have for many years been planning a ride through Rajasthan on a Enfield motorcycle but have not been able to push this through and it yet remains on the agenda. However, a coastal drive along my proposed route and that too in a Cedia Sports - can only be a dream come true.

Shahdil Samuel Soundararajan & Nicola Varghese

Total Vote(s) : 223 | Total Testimonial(s) : 12

I’m a rebel without a cause and She is a saint with all the right causes. She’s the sanity to my madness, and the calm to my storm. She’s there to egg me on when I need a little encouragement, and also to temper my impulsiveness when I’m being foolhardy, though sometimes roles are reversed. My passion is automobiles and the fire in her life is Dance. I drove into her life and she danced into my heart. Even from the get go we had a common denominator, and that was our love for travel. So from the outset of our time together we’ve travelled the world getting to know the world a little and getting to know each other a whole lot more. My name is Shahdil also known as Mav and her name is Nicola also known as Nic. We’re both from Bangalore and have grown up hopefully with the right set of values and a positive outlook on life. We love life and enjoy living every moment of it. They say people can get high on life, if so be the case we’re certainly flying high. Our tastes and likes are eclectic, we love the great outdoors but we also enjoy the hustle and bustle of city life as well. We adore animals (dogs in particular) but we also tolerate the 2 legged planet of the apes’ kind. We’re young and nubile and always in for an adventure and a good time. So hopefully come join us get to know us a little better. We promise you an unbridled view of stunning scenery, humorous encounters and hopefully veritable knowledge of information on places and routes plentiful and seldom travelled.

Saurabh Uttam & Divya Uttam

Total Vote(s) : 312 | Total Testimonial(s) : 26

We are the Uttams- Saurab & Divya. We share the same thought school for a few beliefs like- no movie is complete without popcorn, no life is complete without exploring and no traveling without driving. We both are into social media marketing. Divya works with 20:20 Media, as their senior digital pr executive. She runs a community of over 3500+ people at http://www.mybloglog.com/buzz/community/Fame/ and is very active networker in linkedIn, facebook, and twitter. Her connections include some of the famous Social Media personalities, and is personally known and followed by a large fan following for her blog. Recently, she played a big part in the marketing of social media event by her company. We consider "Great Driving Challenge" as a good platform to launch our very own http://www.secret.travel website, which will cover destinations distilled to their cores- from cultures to cuisines, from roads to rides and from scenery to the secrets attractions, from the view of a true traveler . Internet is our bread and butter. Coming to food, we are total foodies,(he a hard core non-vegetarian and she does not eat animals(dead or alive)). JBL’s & rockford fosgate enthusiasts, you will find loads of CDs in the glove compartment of our car. Travelling on straight expressways with a heart throbbing speed of 150KMPH to narrow trails of Goa in the late night hours, arguing on which next turn to take or restaurant to try, which sometimes turns into the lone dhaba we crossed for next 100 kms, we have similar adventure questions, yet points of settlement so different. We, the unplanned travellers, unleash the scenic beauty, meeting local people of country villages, feeding their stray dogs or trying their food and sometimes looking for accommodation to spend that dark stormy night and all driving our josh machine. Driving for us means being a predator and ruling roads with our passion of adventure. We love long drives into the late night, weekend night haults in never heard of place, dancing in the lone beaches, pondering under stars, bonfire in winter and cool bear bottles in summer with grilled delicacies and aroma of charcoal is what make us just say GO..!
