Planned many a times but all in vain as Rain God this time was very happy with this part of country. This one was our third trip planned for a short one but gone Long.
The Riders and the ride
Me -> RTR180
Nirmaldas -> FZ
These days it was rainy heavy here so doing Hills was a little tough one cause of many landslides, floods and all those thing which can happen on hill rides. Have tried rajasthan once but was a failed attempt. I hope you guess it right.
It was Friday night, got a message from Nirmal "Trip?
Forecast is Sunny days next 3 days".
With no times in hands for getting route print outs from gmap the trip was decided for Bikaner , Rajasthan 461 kms.
Planned routes till late 12 am and planned to start at 0530 am.
As happens with all of us before a ride "Sleepless Night" but somehow i managed 4 hours.Met Nirmal at 0540 am and started for the ride.
It was 7am and here we met with the first long traffic jam on the Gurgaon Expressway.So somehow we managed to come down from highway to side lane which was filled with Potholes+Water.
We were moving pretty slow with the slow moving taffic and here i made a big mistake cause it was my first encounter with water filled BIG potholes roads. I rode in to a pothole which make me feel like that this one is gonna swollow me. I guess the bike did a full stoppie all though it didnt overturn but fall sidewise and i am almost waist deep in water. I lifted up the bike and tried to start but it was not turning on. Because the bike fallen on left side i
though some water got into airfilter. Somehow managed to pull her out from the ditch.
The resultant of that fall on the bike was the broked left indicator. Water inside shoe, wet socks, wet pant, riding gear and just covered a merely 20 kms still 440 kms to go.
The Ken Da's idea help us through out the trip after the above incident.
Few Clicks of the Trip.
Rest will follow soon.
