  • Road Trip, Solo, 5000 km, North India, April 2014

    I wanted to do a bit of traveling before I got put into more projects at office. The film and advertisement industry is notorious for late nights and all-nighters. So, I took out around 16 days to travel around North India.

    Bike - Honda Unicorn
    Backpack - Kelty Coyote 80
    Gloves - Youngstown General Utility Kevlar Gloves
    Shoes - Woodland
    Helmet - LS2
    Camera - Canon SX500IS
    Phone & GPS - Moto G (Airtel)
    Cash - 24,000
    Distance - 5124 km
    States - Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi, Himachal Pradesh

    There is a certain beauty in the path of a straight road. I enjoy that immensely. There's some strange sort of peace in that continuous hum of your engine, and the muffled wind through your visor.

    I'm not going to talk much. I hope you enjoy the pictures, and I hope to have inspired you in some way.

    You can find this album on Flickr and Imgur with some interesting backstories to a few pictures.

    Log Approved.

    Beautiful pictures, Devparam. Loved those puppy portraits. Too good.

    Please watermark your photos, for unintended plagiarizing.

    Cheers!

    Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
    The girl said, 'NO!'


    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


    THE END

              Hey,

              B7ACKTHORN - Thank you for saying that! You wouldn't believe the cuteness on those pups!

              itsmevini123, krishna77, dichkaun - Thanks man! I really appreciate you taking out the time to leave your comments.

              sunilg - Thank you for your comment! These pictures are at 40% resolution and have medium JPEG quality. I don't upload the hi-res unless somebody requires them for a non-commercial reason. I do plan to do something with these pictures, but right now, my job keeps me busy. Apart from that, these pictures are as much a part of xbhp as they are of me. I'm glad to be a small part of this touring thread. It would actually be a compliment if somebody plagiarized them.

              Have fun guys.
