Free flow of Nature .... Journey of a biker ...

The Corn plants were there....

They were always there waiting for the Sunshine ..waiting for the days to come.Little did they know that a biker was on his way from a far distant land, as crazy and as wanting to be as free as them.

When he saw them dance to the breeze..he could not go..but was pulled back to stay.. little nay did they know that he was embracing their callous attitude to the oncoming sea of gushing cold air.... he loved to see them dance ... move their flimsy yet strong body to every nuance of the wind.....happily celebrating beauty of life....Here I was seeing them dance and my odometer had just touched 300 thousand meters... even after I had been traveling for more than 5hours...

The biker thought that like the biker the corn plants too had a great life transforming journey so far..a journey in search of a difference .....A journey to experience the differences of life all alone ....the corn plants knew that their end was near and they were so sure about their end that they did not waste even a single day ... The biker wished if we Humans too thought and felt the same way !!!


All of the people passing by in their buses and cars just gazed at me mostly wondering what I was up to..Their obvious reasoning described me as Insane and foolish enough to stand there in that place and write,smile and enjoy the beauty of it... For a commoner passing by this was just a daily routine show .. a show which he rarely even recognizes even if it happens daily... a sight which he had gotten so used to in his life that he had forgotten what a breeze meant....for him it was another casual day of a not so splendid life....

....A Biker's Odyssey ...

 I was driving alone ... it was what I thought for a moment.Then with no time the thoughts breezed my mind that there were Stars too watching over me....I looked up and through my helmet shield I could see the Stars amidst the pitch darkness all around...I was happy to see Stars who stood out strongly and alone , brightly showing themselves without any fear.The fear was only human..as that of mine .... It never is an image of Nature .. Nature is so fearless and Strong..Like the huge trees that stood there when I raced past them,the wind that was blowing on to me without any fear and showing its full force....I was reminded of the might what we are surrounded by...We still have a lot to seek and  get inspired from our real mentor and guide ...."GOD" as some call as .... "Nature" some believe it to be ....."Existence of Evolution" defined by legends .....What ever the name may be, the beauty and strength with which it showed itself was palpable....And all along the pot holes along the roads kept reminding me that I was only a mere mortal and am part of a clan who are not very farsighted and who are riddled with fear and inhibitions.....That was when I woke up to reality.... That I was a traveler who was here to learn,unlearn, relearn the beauty of LIFE...

This was how my 1600km journey started !

How the year 2011 started ... New Year from 2010

That Fateful Day we touched 200kph ...25 Dec'10

Almost a year back .. I was in Doha,Qatar on a short vaccation visiting my parents....and all my friends from school were there too luckily.... and what dawned on 26Dec'2010 was unforgettable....it still lives in me as a memory....

It all started as a usual day .... we friends decided to go out in the evening and celebrate as it was christmas  ... my very good friend NOH's parents had been to India .. so we all reached his house and had some fun .... post that we all decided to go to Wakrah beach ... a beach about 30km from Doha.. NOH told me the road was very good and it is truly a pleasure  to drive ..  and so we decided to go through those newly bulit roads...as soon was reached the road ....it looked as a feast to really good adrenaline rush driving.... yes you guessed it right ... we decided to give our best shot at it ...NOH asked me ; da shall we blast it .. i said of course...and then we zoomed at 200kph .... i was so thrilled .....as this was the first time i was sitting in  any OBJECT that moved at that speed .... it was unbelievably cool ... though our other friend PRA was pacifying us to control our speed/adrenaline rush and drive with some common sense... as usual we ducked him down...laughed at him and asked him to grow up ... the fourth guy in the car with us ..MEEN....whose dad's car it was what we were driving ... also got into mine and NOH's mood and we were having so much fun !!!

And then we decided to hit the gas station .. and when were fillin in, an Arab guy came and asked NOH for his Driving License....and we were shocked ...wondered what his problem was ... but he seemed authoritative !!! .. and we decided to be polite to him and NOH reached for his purse ..and as expected  ... he did not have it .. he had left his purse at home.....This arab guy asked us to take our car to the side and park it..And as soon as we did what he said .. he came and took away the car keys....we were hell shocked ... we thought who the hell was he to do that ...we  were all so clueless as who this mystery man was....but NOH was smart enough to guess that this guy could be from the CID or some govt organization inolved with policing ...

And then we went and spoke to him who was sitting in his land cruiser ... we asked him what was our mistake...and that too we asked in such an innocent way , pretending as if nothing had happened ...  he accused and scolded us for the rash/speed driving without putting the car's head lights ON....

and then it struck on us...shit ! we had not put the headlights.....and then we begged this guy saying we were sorry and so on ..... but with in a few minutes a police jeep arrived and this guy went  and explained the police guy about the situation in Arabic... and none of us there knew Arabic...we  were standing there as dumb heads having no clue as to what the conversation was  between this police and the apparent CID....so we let things take shape....all the while were all hell scared but we were sure of one thing  ...That we were in a BIG BIG MESS......so we just decided to try our best and get out of it .....then things moved pretty quick ....we were taken to police station .. and asked for all documents... and they decided to produce us in court the next day ..but we had to stay there overnight ...i mean  in JAIL ....and not all ..but only NOH as he was driving.....and it really hurt me and MEEN to send him alone in ... me and MEEN thought we should get him out somehow...but we had no clue how to....That day when we returned home without our friend .. it felt so sick ... Me and MEEN did not feel like going home...we went and sat in Corniche for a long time contemplating what had happened that day ... we sure were guilty of pushing it to the edge and getting all of us in trouble .. But then , one thing was for sure ... We did had a lot of fun and the only thing we regretted was not having been able to get our friend out of the police station/jail with us...

And the next day the judge fined him and let him out ...


but what happened that day was a memory that still feels like it happened yesterday...In a day I had experienced FRIENDSHIP , FEAR , ANXIETY and many other UN-NAMED EMOTIONS... what a day it was .....but looking back it feels great to have been with my friends that day and experienced the whole thing !!!!!

I am signing off for now .... But guys, ALWAYS DRIVE SAFE....

!! Travel BUG !! -- I woke up from my DEEP SLUMBER

Someday it feels like life is too short....but those somedays are very rare...most of the time i see myself wondering with loads of empty time...wondering what to do ...and then sleeping for a long time....unknowing how long i sleep .. get up and go have loads of food...then i realize what the f*** ... what am i doing with my life...what i always wanted to do was to do something new ..something great / different ....And then i woke from my deep slumber  ... i love traveling when  it hit me a few months back...all thanks to my best friend...she used to pull me out of my monotonous holidays.....and then i realized it was really fun to travel ..... the best part being able to see and experience new things....

So i decided to take my bike on a ride .... ohh i love my bike ... its a YAMAHA FZ16 .. with a powerful 150cc engine that races to 100kph in just under 15seconds in an Indian road.... and my first drive was to "Singur Dam Reservoir" ...Was a smooth 200km ride (To & Fro) ... most importantly the experience was awesome ... guys, it is always good to trust your intution rather than GOOGLE MAPS ...which I used for this first long distance drive I took up..... i must say google did give me the shortest way but the way was totally riddled with pot holes and scavenged areas ... i aint't sure the scavengers were who? but rather we didn fall into any traps apparently !! the trip and the road (which we took by intution)was great ...especially the roads which we took on the way to the place ( mistakenly we took the wrong turn from google maps) was  great road ... the drive was simply awesome...and the dam was also good...in between we passed through many villages...the REAL INDIA .... and it was pretty different to see many people who were wondering where the hell on earth we were heading To....

...Naturally Beautiful ...

Enroute !

On the way .. just before reaching the Dam

A view of Dam with my Bike

A view of the Dam....

Creation/discovery/idea/invention : Google/Pigeon ranking Algorithm

How wonderful the idea of searching and sorting out the data using an algorithm - The Pigeon Rank......hats off to these two great people who had the courage and perseverance to try out something new......well much has changed about google from the time it was born...now everything people talk about is google.....the word 'google' has become a part of our daily english vocab...don ppl say now "hey , google it out,perhaps it'd give u the required result".....

thats wat i call as 'Technology that touches lives'....

and how on earth can i ever forget GOOGLE MAPS......they revolutionize my life daily.......Being in a new city , whenever I want to check out some new places or go to some place, I generally use google maps pre-installed in my nokia rather than ask people.......it makes life all the more simpler and gr8.........And google has this amazing ability to make things more cooler and creative! Long live Google!!
