This gives me a sense of satisfaction when i beat an 18 year old kid in his zma or 180 with my Fi cuz that poor chap don’t know whn to shift gears and how to drive it correctly....
thr are times when they pull close to me show me a hand to race with them, sometimes i show them my speedo drop a gear and then i show them what "revving the hell outta bike" means...
but thr are times i let the kid win cuz this seems all a very kiddish stuff to me...
We all get bored with the same things in life..
but when i get bored with the traffic light GP,i got to twisties put my leg down at every curve and talk to my bike,that yes!!! you can pull it babe!!!,c'mon you should have showed more power at 7500 then you're showin to me right now!!!!
and when i get bored from this too,i go to the open road park my bike in front and think that life is not about biking sometimes.....
It's not about fiddling with the carb,it's not about getting new broad soft compound tyre,it's not about shifting each gear at the red line,it's not about scrapin the pegs,it's not about getting ur hands dirty while cleaning out the air filter,it's not about checkin the plugs colour.....
it's about several other things too,tht happens when we are 21 or 23 or more than that....
when we have to put our biking passion in side for many other practical things in life.....
i cannot go and spend 10000 bucks on the new end can because i'll be needing those bucks for some other work too....
thr are many amongst us who cannot go and buy a superbike worth 8lakhs,inspite of having the bucks cuz they have to buy the first car of the family too....
I really begged my father to buy me 2007 R6 when it came out...but he bought me Ford Fiesta 1.4 ZXI sayin-"it makes more sense"...
2 years down the line now,i believe it does......
i miss my being 18 when i used to ask things from my dad and i used to spend anything on my bike without thinkin twice that i may be in need of it later cuz I always had dad’s hand reaching for me before me putting my hands in my pocket for bucks…
but things are changed now....
now it's my pocket that i've to fill,
but still if i'm 100% tensed of something,my bike shaves off 80% for me when i go out with her....
if it's not with bike then listening to ur fav tracks you can try out a car with ur love by ur side on a long ride gives you many more things other than biking in real world....
but at the end of the day,i feel blessed for having many things in life to choose from to get that smile on my face when i get bored.

friends romans countrymen
tell me one thing.
i currently own a reynold jetter ball point pen.
when it was new i loved to write all kinda things i enjoyed. all kinda things i always thought i d write when i own a jetter. poems, editorials, jokes, short stories, novelletes and novels. i wrote on all kinds of surfaces.
notebooks, drawing sheets, handmade paper, executive bonds, even clothes.
heck! now i feel bored doing same thing again and again.
lately the market has been flooded with newer droolworthy pens.
i am thinking of getting myself a new sheffield fountain pen or maybe cello u-nic so that i can enjoy my hobby of writing once again like i used to when this jetter was new.
what is ur advise please?
