A wonderful log comes to an end where the lover buoy gets his bum burnt, gets himself and his senses killed by the sun numerous times.

Loved it to the core. 2 more months!

finally narration finished but left me with a wish

...
12. Love can make a Guy do any crazy thing in life
...

2 More Months for what ?

Your ride is the most enviable kind among all the rides a biker might do in his life.


In my experience, same applies to ladies as well. In fact most living things, they would be dead otherwise, no ?

For him to recover from recent mishap & to munch some miles; not to mention all the planning through the busy weekdays.

What is the wish ? another ride for your lady love?

Wish is to meet you guys at Delhi or TN someday.For to meet my EX I might have to drive Continental

Entire ride was great. ..[emoji106]

Awesome to see an spectacular end. Very well written and always kept me glued to this TL. God Bless.

I usually have lots of pics during rides. But this ride kept me busy throughout.. thanks for sticking thru the post

Continuation...

I checked for the distance from Nagpur to Jhansi. The map showed up as below

[ATTACH=CONFIG]151939[/ATTACH]

I had to cover 600 odd kms and the time right now is 2 PM.. I had some odd 8 hours with me to reach Jhansi.

After crossing 10 kms, I again felt thirsty so I stopped for the Lemonade again.. this time, i order 4 and got them filled into an extra bottle i had so that I can have a sip whenever I wanted to.. It was too hot and I had no other choice

So I left Nagpur and moved towards Jhansi.. Pench National Park just 20 kms from Nagpur.. Awesome Place to ride through.. I couldn't enjoy it when I went past it last week.. but only now I realized how beautiful it is.. riding through a Forest.. Trees on both the sides.. greenery stealing my eye sight every now and then.. The Natural birds singing to their own tone.. The problem is, I just couldn't stop as I didn't have much time. The roads were not that great as well.. this road lasted for almost 30 kms..

even though the road conditions weren't that great, I just kept onto the speedometer reading of 80-85 kmph.. and maxed at 95 kmph.. I had perfect control of my Black pearl or maybe she was able to understand my mind Mind reading maybe.. We make good partnership..

As I was riding along the National Park, I saw some 10 bikers on REs going towards Nagpur.. I gave a Thumbs Up to them and looked ahead of me..

None of these pics are edited.. they are Raw pics.. this is how the roads are and if you look at the clouds, you can imagine what lies ahead of me.. just some 10 minutes back, I was dying riding under the sun and what lies ahead of me was unknown.. It was windy and I knew something was coming towards me..

I stopped again after riding for another 3 kms.. I took out the small plastic bags I had to keep my mobiles and my wallet inside.. took out a black garbage bag to cover my bag with my clothes (though it is waterproof, I didn't want to take any risk) and put on the gears and started riding.. no rain yet.. few more bikers on REs thumping their way past me.. I pressed the Pass button and they responded back It started drizzling.. I moved inside a Fuel station just to ensure I had everything covered so that I don't get wet.. oops, i forgot to inform my fiance that it is about to rain and I am keeping my mobile phones inside.. sent a msg stating the same and kept my mobile inside.. She shouldn't get worried if I don't attend her calls.. I drank some of the Lemonade I purchased..

The village people at the fuel station looked at me.. well, let me rephrase it.. Stared at me as if I am a terrorist.. Not to forget I was wearing a Balaclava.. I removed it and wore my bandanna because I didn't want the visor to get fogged up.. All done and I am ready to move.. It started drizzling a little more than before but hey, I am not scared of rain nor it can stop me from riding..

As I continued with my ride, the rain started pouring in harder.. as in, nothing ahead on the road was visible.. I mean, come on.. the roads are no where near good and with water on the road, how am I going to know where the potholes are!! but hey, that is something I was never scared of before.. I continued to ride as other people on bike were looking out for a place to stay dry.. ahead of me was a Scorpio.. driving slow, but not allowing me to pass ahead of him.. I couldn't overtake him as there were too many potholes on the overtaking side.. I flashed and honked asking for space to let me go past him.. finally I found an opportunity to overtake and I did.. when overtaking, I just took a quick glance at the driver and God Damn it.. you might have understood already, yes.. a Freaking Lady driver.. argggggggggg.. I crouched and I just sped away.. it rain was pouring down on me.. heavier than before.. finally reached 4 lane road with one way traffic.. that was a blessing from God I must say.. Now I was able to ride at better speeds.. quite happy I continued at constant speed of 90ish as it was raining.. the roads took me past hills and small mountains.. I had to stop for almost 5 minutes as there was a small landslide and the container trucks trying to get past the landslide by coming all the way to the left side of the lane.. that was a dangerous risk..

After that traffic got cleared, it stopped raining heavily and started drizzling.. and slowly it stopped raining.. I always wanted to test the tires in rain and My God, the tires did a fantastic job.. using Michelin Sirac Street in front and Zapper Q at the rear.. I tried to bend the bike as much as possible on the watery roads and to my surprise, it didn't slip and I had the complete control of the bike.. both the tires are Tube-Type and I am using them as Tubeless tires.. braking was effective and they were working as they should..

After crossing all this hilly areas, the long stretch came up again.. again I started riding the bike at its max @120-130 kmph depending upon the up-slopes and down-slopes.. There was a Sumo speeding up on seeing me overtake with ummm.. girls in it I slowed down purposely giving the driver the hope that he can overtake me at ease.. well.. he overtook me at 90 kmph.. he showed me a Thumbs-down which triggered the beast in me.. I let him go well ahead of me of some 1 km and I picked up speed.. doing 125-128 kmph.. crouching down completely (Please don't try this).. I overtook him at 130 kmph.. and then i slowed down again, let him overtake me and I overtook him again.. this must have showed him not to mess with me then I just sped away disappearing from him sight.. I crossed Seoni and took some break for 5 minutes as I wanted to stretch after riding in rain.. the Sumo overtook me again but this time I wasnt worried about anything..

Well.. guess what? i started sneezing.. grrrr.. I caught a cold... this lemonade, I don't know which water it is made out of and I drank a lot of it.. God Damn it..

Please bear with me.. this is a long one and I am sorry I will continue later in the night or after I reach home depending on when I get time..

Cheers,
Reneav

Uff......finally read all your posts slow and steady and it took me a couple of hours ; you are a great inspiration man . I turned down my friends who planned a trip from Lucknow to Nainital and it got cancelled because of me and my fear of bike riding . However after reading your story I can only imagine what fun , courage , stamina , concentration it would require to complete such lengthy and hectic drives but still enjoyable .
I am goona say a yes to my pals for the planned trip this monsoon , because of the inspiration that I acquired from this thread . Thankyou mate .
Probably the best thread at XBHP by a mile...............
