Day 1 - Leaving home & riding towards Jaipur

Dear Wanderers, I have always been passionate about riding. Like everyone even i had a dream to travel as much as i can on my bikes. But the reality is it's easier said than done. It took me a lot of mental preparation and conviction to finally move towards my passion of traveling India by bike. I manage a digital agency called Skillwise Solutions. So the goal is to create a balance between travel & work. With this in mind & hope in my heart, i finally started my journey. Leaving from Home Fuel-up 1 : Prabhadevi Trip Km. Count : 1km Fuel price : Rs 109.98 / Litre Leaving early was the key to a smooth ride. As I left Mumbai, i was still getting used to my bike. The luggage, the charging unit, the mirror settings etc. While most of the ride went smoothly, i still felt the lower end of the bike's suspension to be tricky during trenches. It made a weird noise when it hit a bump. Breakfast at Hotel Ahura & Meeting the Naana Naani Travellers Hotel Ahura is a popular rest...

Day 4 & 5 - Celebrating Holi at Jaipur

Dear Wanderers, You will always be curious when you are in Jaipur. And if you are here during Holi... God bless you. The city changes its colour.. literally! I consider myself fortunate that i have had a chance to celebrate the festival of Holi in this awesome city. It's one time of the year when people take control of the city and the administration sits back and monitors the situation. While the Holi vibe was on, i still had to make sure i get through with my office work & then join in the celebrations. Getting to a cafe My mind started buzzing with thoughts of where must i go to get through with my daily office morning calls. I did not feel like spending it in the hostel since i had already done it once & i wanted to try out something different. Plus I also wanted to save myself from the afternoon heat. So now i wanted a cafe that has a cool vibe, doesn't fret about its patrons settling down for long hours & has wi-fi! I checked my saved Google list of "To ...

Day 2 - Reaching Jaipur

Dear Wanderers, After an eventful Day 1, i felt well rested and was ready to take on the roads again. I knew i had a long ride ahead of me. Who would complain if you woke up to a view like this! The Route Trip km count : 544 (From previous day) Route : Kapadvanj - Modasa Road From the Hotel to a Pitstop - Quite an adventure. Meet Vaishali As i started my day, i was cruising at a decent 80-90 kmph & everything seemed like it was going well. Then suddenly i saw two transgenders on the middle of the road stopping every car, truck and bike asking for money. Since i was at a cruising speed, i gestured them to move aside. Guess what.. they didn't! I applied emergency breaks, smiled and told them that they could have hurt themselves. Just then, my gear shifted and the bike abruptly jerked making me off-balance. Since Himalayan is a heavy bike.. i was going down and before i knew it i was flat on the middle of the road with my bike lying next to me. Both of these angels helped me pick...
