West Park and Kartofel Bajji

machi, these people cycle 50-60KMs a day... u got cycle rooms in all offices, where they park their "bikes" take a bath and walk into the office. so lets try a german weekend on sunday. we took out our bikes, got the kela in the petrol bunk to fill air. poor aghu had to pedal a damn cycle without air.
why wud they not cycle? special routes, cycle lanes on all roads, 30 odd gears tireless cycles!
West park, for those of u who know englisher garten, in the south equivalent of it, just that its smaller. the usual artifical lake with fountain, the bier garten etc., i guess it wud have been 10kms of cycling, all that i remember when i reached there was 1 hour sleep and "... vunoduu naan konda bandham, mannodu mazai konda sondham, kaaindhalum adi-neerum minjum..." on an infinite loop in my mp3.
Hari gave me 2 options a) to go to stanburger see (25kms from there) and bring back the cycles by S Bahn trains or b) make bajji. obku jump over b)
On sundays there r zero shops open, we had to travel another 1 hour to find a kilo of potatos (kartofels) and onions. making bajji is the easiest. Gram flour, rice flour in 9:1 a litttle backing soda, salt + red chilli powder, mix it to neat paste, put potatos in them and then in oil, take out and eat. i guess the 5 of us there ate atleast 100 bajjis (note: chief cook, chief eater, idea, concept realisation: Raghuraman).

night dinner with US Open at Anantha's: the superb rasam (ushhah) i remember firing at 2 and then sleeping :)
