I was 21 when got my hands on my flat mate's chetak and teh first riding lessons from my dad ... did not ride bike for another 4 months till one fine morning the chetak had a flat tyre and the only thing that could have took me to a puncture wala was my friend's Wind 125 . Just remembered what was told by dad ... clutch left hand ... gear on left foot ... front brake on right hand and rear brake on right foot
.... n vrooom i rode into the biking world that morning !!!
If heaven doesnt allow bikes, I will ride mine straight to hell

I started back in 1998 when I was about 18 years old on my friends Bajaj Chetak scooter. Applied almost full throttle, and was wondering why its not moving forward!! Suddenly I realized I have to release the clutch. So all of a sudden I released the clutch and I went into an uncontrolled wheelie, banged on a wall and busted his front fender, got a few scratches on my hands and legs. My friend was almost crying. HAHA!
Thats how I started! After this memorable accident, my friend banned me from touching his scooter and I had to pick another friend and continue learning to ride on his Rajdoot. LOL!!
Good ol' memories! Cheers!!

First bike I laid my hands on was a Honda imported one.. of some friend.. dont recall the name of the bike though.. his dad was in customs so got some machine..!!
I didnt even knew why the gear control is provided for bikes.. never felt like downshifting gears on a speed-breaker..
i remember a moment, while i was taking turn, my focus was just on the road, not on the bike, i was just increasing the rev on curve due confusion & fear..!! had a nice fall which gave me back some wonderful bruises
than i just stopped riding bikes, got myself an activa..
.. initially i thought this is the easiest & safe vehicle.. people riding bikes r real dumb..lately as months passed i started feeling inferior riding my bike, when i use to c those bikers race by me.. finally i gave up, realised what a MACHO is.. dumped the activa.. & guess what .. got a Karizma..!! vow.. a funny journey was it.. indeed..
