Default Touring everyday

Hi My name is Francis and I ride a Yamaha Fazer 153cc.

Just wanted to share that I enjoy touring on my bike and have done trips from Mumbai to Lonavala, Bhandardara, Kolad, Mangaon, Harihareshwar and Alibaug.

To add more, I do a 100 plus kms everyday from my home (Mira Road) to my office (Vashi) and back. I feel this is more like a tour which i do on a daily basis.

THAT'S THE ONLY THING WHICH MOTIVATES ME TO GO TO WORK.

Planning to do it further as well.

Welcome to xBhp, Franco...

Reminds me of the time I used to ride to work to Churchgate from Mira Road when the construction of the flyovers had started -- and that too on an RD350

Now, am in Kalwa and still traveling the same distance, but having more fun now done 35k kms in 15 months

Thanks argee, but out of that 35k only about 7-9k have been in actual touring... the rest is just commuting

^^^ Even then, give or take, 25K in 15 months is incredible. I know the pain of it 'cause I'm almost in that league
