    Check out these images from my piddly P&S Camera taken during my recent trip to Konkan. Imagine what could Sunny do at such places
    of course, India has equally beautiful (it not more) places like Ireland. But, here I was commenting only on "photography." May be its because of the equipment he is using (the best he has so far) or the peace of mind being in a country where you won't have to worry about anything even if you are riding a big bike, or may be its both, but the outcome is better than ever before.

    Cheers

      Yes, he is the same guy who has gone around the world umpteen times, many of you will remember him as the guy on the R1 around the world!

      This is indeed fantastic for me!
      This is really fantastic for all of us! Amazing achievement Sunny. Yes, do convey to him about the huge fan following that he has in India, the most unlikely of all places!
      The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

        • It indeed is a rare honour to be acknowledged as being on the right path and so appreciated by someone who has scaled the summit of the mountain the foothills of which one intrepidly treads.

          A great moment! We all are proud of you Sunny...

          • Have known Mr. Nick Sanders from quite a while ,when I read an article about him in bike india!When he visited India! on his around the world tour on the mighty R1

            Sunny

            We are all too busy sometimes to recognize other people and what they are doing. I saw your photographs and was really impressed. I am very impressed with people who chase a dream and even if they don’t quite catch it, trying is what really counts. It inspires others to try and do the same. You are one of those inspirational characters. Keep going fella, I’m watching you!

            Kindest regards

            That's an achievement!

                              • Thanks, everyone!

                                Yesterday I reached Belfast. i had no accommodation and i entered Belfast at 10.30PM. I roamed around the massive city for some time and then i decided to stop at a Chinese take away restaurant. With some help of the owner I booked into Holiday Inn at the University road at 11.15 PM.

                                What a day.

                                I took the Causeway coastal route and it was fantastically sunny today.

                                Am very late and sleep, so just two pictures for today:
