          @Rachit - Even if you are not posting the log then do post the daywise pictures (couple of them will do) and the places visited each day.

          Btw never knew that Ashish was also there

            I will post pix with some details about it & the place whatever I remember. Daywise would be difficult though, but yes lot of pix on the way

            Even I never knew about Ashish until i saw him on the Airport while going for the Boot Camp. It was good to have xbhpians, on the ride. Had so many common things to speak about

                      Thanks a ton my friend Rony..!! the experience cannot be expressed or brought to reality merely in words. But indeed it was a lifetime experience, touring to places where hardly anyone would ever decide to tour willingly. Because it doesnt have popular palaces, lakes, rivers, etc.. But still its equally beautiful. Watching the life of people that side & the way they find happiness in small things is really touchy.
                      Entire journey was so well organized & was complete quality time just for 'myself'.

                      As you said rightly, my grand children would be more than happy to hear about my Motorcycling Tales then knowing about the salary I drawn & the best company I worked for.
                      It was totally worth postponing my marriage, Have no regrets.

                      One Life.. Live or Leave it

                            The trials and Tribulations of being a Girl Biker

                            One of the funniest experiences during the 'Great Indian Ride'..
                            Gujarat enroute to MP..
                            We stopped near a police chowky..
                            Me on my bike(fully geared up with helmet et all) took a halt besides our pilot car which was full of men..
                            Cop comes towards me and starts feeling my arms and shoulders and punches my back..
                            Cop(in Gujarati):e jacket ma full guard che?
                            Aniket Indulkar(our team leader):haan che
                            Cop:he soon che?
                            Aniket:all india ride che..
                            Cop(then asks every individuals name in d car) n then turns towrds me..
                            Cop:he bhai na naam su che?
                            Aniket:Sir bhai nahi 'ben' che..urvashi ben
                            Cop(in gujju, i cant translate nemre ):why in the world is a girl riding while the men are relaxing in the car??
                            Aniket::nai nai woh professional rider che
                            Cop:sorry ben,i thot u wr a man as well..

                            ha ha ha..

                            one more..
                            We were in MP on the way to Omkareshwar..
                            We took a chai break and this semi-drunk man stops besides us on his bike and starts exclaiming that he was racing us i.e Rachit k from Mumbai xBhp, me and the rest of our team for the past half an hour but just couldnt catch up..

                            He walked towards me and said, "Bhai, bahut badhiya chalate ho aap sab"..
                            and I am like,"nahi,mai ladki hoon"
                            Him:"Matlab,aap ladies ho.. kya wo sab bhi ladies hai?"
                            and at the point Rachit intervened,raised his hand and said,"nahi nahi, ham gents hai"

                            lol

                                hahah you know what urvashi...it would have been even more funnier if you would have punched him back and removed your helmet !

                                about the semi-drunk man...im sure he must have quit drinking !
