Amazing writeup sir........makes me feel like i should start touring right away.............Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming, 'Wow! What a Ride!' -Hunter S. ThompsonComment

Awesome......... buddy, even I believe that motorcycling helps a lot in getting a positive frame of mind........ I ride my bike to relieve my stress as its just sort of a divine experience for me........ whenever I feel sad or stressed or angry with someone or something, I just take my bike and start riding right away, no destinations, just going where ever the road takes, and I can feel my worries and stress leaving behind as if they were just some objects on roadside which I just passed by....... I truly feels like my bike and me starts to become just one person and we together exploring the world, its just amazing, I can't even explain it in writing but I can surely say, its the same feeling that a true believer feels after praying to god.......Comment

Inspirational writeup. I always believe that we should atleast do one thing which we really like once a day. It really freshens one up and makes one ready to face the next wave so to speak.
For me, its my ride to and from office on my R15. I am just amazed at how that one ride back home evaporates all my stresses away, nasty traffic snarls notwithstanding!
And, even though I am not much of a tourer, a long tour really heals. It becomes a journey of self discovery.
Once again, Sunil, thanks for sharing your story!Last edited by abhijeet080808; 02-08-2012, 01:10 PM.Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!Comment

Hats off Sunil Ji. Read and felt good, passing this over to my friends and known people who feels same as what you have told in the article. Thanks a Ton

+1 above and agree completelyOriginally posted by satyenpoojary View PostEkdum sentimental write up!
Though it has a fair bit of flaws in the words used or the lines framed, the emotions are very very well conveyed!
Ive always maintained the philosohy of the more one travels outside, the greater is his journey within! And this is a definite example for it!Comment

Odd SunilG, Almost sounds like a phase in my life. The only relief was riding off. It was never planned, nothing as epic as most of you guys have done, just me and my bike all alone in some road with no definite plan or target to achieve. I had a funny problem when a lot of things hit me at the same time at that particular phase. I couldn't sleep. I did put that to good use, work endlessly to tire myself for the 4 hr sleep once in 2 or 3 days. But, riding off has been the most comforting at troubled times and also was the best at clearing up my mind when important decisions had to be made."Does zebra have stripes?"Comment

Good to see fellow bikers heal up.
I'm in process too.
3.5+ years back I "had" to sell my Roadrunner (my previous bike) and then buy a car to someone's wish.
Being back-stabbed by same person multiple times (over 10 years) I finally gave up (its exactly 2 months today)... won't elaborate more.
I brought Amitiel (my current bike) home to counter my loneliness and I take her out for a spin whenever I get lost in storm of thoughts that weakens my heart.... and when I step back home I have a wide grin on my face.Comment
