This blog is an online expression of my thoughts, about my country and how my life revolves around her. The dream to live here forever and involve myself to make a change about things which matter to me. My love for motorcycles and touring my country on them. My passion for being in the midst of people who make up our country.

I am getting ready to take my rightful place, that is the saddle of my bikes. The break from touring since Feb. did me a lot of good. It allowed me to clear out some soul-searching issues, matters which are also close to the heart and home, more importantly it ignited the thirst for venturing out to the hills again.
Its been 12 months since I went home, this time I wont be dodging the call of my own bed, tv, music system, friends, mom, Kolkata, I will be going home. The trip to Kolkata will also mark the end of the vanavas from the touring fraternity. Once I am back, I will be heading into some unknown lands, no I am not going to Tibbet yet, but Himachal Pradesh, no matter how funny it seems never managed to hit a chord with me. A sucker for peace, loneliness in hills and deserted twisties in the Himalayas, the over commercialized Himachal have been largely left unexplored.
So my ride to Himachal is just a few days away, I have to give it a try and not be judgemental by sitting on my ass here in the scorched dead metropolis of Delhi. Where I will be heading is something I will let people know once I am back from the ride...till then Ivy is waiting, I am waiting, the hills are waiting....
