                Great going guys. Wonder how I missed this thread all this while. Keep them coming.

                On a lighter note: The hotel you guys were staying near Sealdah - is it the Calcutta Lodge? It does look so.
                All men dream, but not equally. Those that dream at night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act upon their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible. - T. E. Lawrence

                          I have more respect for the army now, considering the hardships they face for us, to protect the border from foreign invasion, surviving extreme weather. If there is something that we could do for them it would be wonderful.
                          Sunny has been very active in a lot of causes and that is one reason why we look up to him but sunny can there be something done for the army/armed forces.

                          Literally there was a complete silence when we reached the point above and we all were in a mood totally different. Although i regret that we couldnt spend a lot of time there but whatever time we spend will always be cherished by all of us.

                            A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                            Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.
