Goaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

When Cousin Sister's wedding was announced and that too in Panaji, Goa, I was happy and excited at the thought of getting a chance to travel to Goa again. Marriage was on April 11th, and I had a reason to ride. I had 3 days in hand, a wedding to attend and also on the agenda being able meet all the people who mean entire world to me; My family, Friends and Relatives’ all at one place; And what a place "GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".

Well I've lost count of the times I have been to Goa; but each time; I desire to unwind and let my hands down on my wheels, I know I'd end at this coastal paradise. Miles and miles of golden sun kissed beaches fringed by coconut palm trees lapped by the waves of the sea, it seems like Goa was created as a tiny image of Heaven on earth. Over the years I've known that the true experience of Goa can be enjoyed by spending the day lazing on the beach till the sun sets and frolicking through the night at open air beaches.

I would have loved to have the Goa even closer to Hubli (Hubli to Panaji - 182 Kilometers), Each time I had a valid reason for bunking Classes; and accelerating 3 hour ride to Goa with friends; Away from the din and bustle of the economic hub of Karnataka...Which Makes me want to live here forever and bury myself into nature’s luxury...

Sunday was gone even before I got a hang of it, Initially after Bangy to Hubli ride , wanted to do a short ride from Hubli to Pune on 1 April 2009 and take rest for two days at home, but later decided against it. I was in for a Two day ride. All the plannes were not happning at all. So was not sure as to where and what. Thought I might as well spin the bottle in the morning and pick a direction! Yeah right. Couldn't catch sleep thinking where to ride. With the original destination being Pune, I felt like doing more and visiting the Charismatic sea shore of Ratnagiri and pristine hills of Mahabaleswar. . So 12.15 am monday I took the Eicher map and Decided it would be Hubli-Ratnagiri via Kolapur day1, Ratnagiri-Mahabaleshwar day2 and finally mahabaleshwar to Pune via panchagini. Some plan which helped me to catch sleep. My Pulsar was all serviced and ready for much some miles. Finally its was happening, long ride. I was Ready and excited for The Hubli - Ratnagiri-mahabaleshwar-Pune

Journey are a way of life!! A man with Machine

Journeys are a way of life. We wade through life looking for a purpose, seeking one milestone after another, looking for destinations but realizing that very often than not, there is no end to a journey. For a vagabond like me, my alter ego lies in a spirit that is lost in a open roads, running down the hills, getting soaked in waters and reliving the past in a monument. In one moment many years ago, I remember when I was growing up I had a dream,, Having never ridden a motorcycle, or known anyone who had one, this idea might have seemed absurd on its face. After racing with the collage biking team in first year, that was the point I loved the speed, the open roads and the the bike which is my personality. It is who I am. It represents freedom and adrenaline; it separates me from the squares. So just before Valentine's Day, and finally this summer I gifted myself my dream machine.... I’m often asked why I travel. Am I am escapist, shunning civilization? Do I want to run away from t

One Life To Ride

Jullay!! I am yet to recover from my excursion to Leh-Ladakh; the pictures are still stored in my memory. Here is a quick post to recollect some of my greatest 'Ladakhi' moments. Some places are such that when you think of capturing their beauty in words, you feel afraid; that you will do injustice to them. Ladakh was such an experience for me. I was so overwhelmed by its grandeur and visual experiences that I kept postponing this blog for months. I would stare at the pictures and loose myself in those unforgettable moments. The very first thing that stays in my mind are the images of the snow capped mountains ringing the brownish landscape of the cold desert-Ladakh. You can see lakes, monasteries and great landscapes, but as you scoop down the mountains on a bike it takes your breath away. I had been long praying to the God to bless me with a visit to Ladakh and the God answered my prayers. As I walked through the snow, the Himalayan peaks stood in splendid isolation
