    You have a way of playing with words. Awesome write up!
    The bike was and is awesome. Never felt short of power. Folks at Pune, especially service center manager, Roshan, who is no longer there, as a token of appreciation did not charge me anything and in fact ensured my whole experience at service center was pleasant and quick.

    Thanks for your kind words

    P.S. I was staying at Satara during that period
    Thanks Doc!

    Hope you had a great ride to Kutch. Please do share your experience.

    Google photos sent a reminder about this day last year. What a nostalgic feeling

    Thanks Vivek. Yes, I did go to work the very next morning

    Gurudev @experimentalhead, please except my shashtang koti koti pranaam.

    I mean, endurance rides for most of us last for a day or two. You were on an endurance week, doing roughly 800+ km for 5 days! Wow. Lovely pics and simple, yet to the point narrative.
    I see you just had a tank bag. I hope you carried enough undies but what about spare shirts and pants?
    Thanks Divya.

    I did carry a back pack too with couple of jeans and tees too

In fact, I derive a lot of inspiration for my rides from your travels only. Thank you for taking the time to do this. I am too lazy to write, but you are slowly pushing me to start writing again. Looking forward to your next ride.
    Thanks a lot Madhav for your kind words. Really appreciate it

    O.T : How do your pics fit 100% to the screen while when I upload, they sometimes do not display full screen (occupy 100% in width). What is your photo resolution and file sizes before you upload them ? TIA.
    Thanks Bob. I save all my pics in Google photos. I also use Google photos/ Picasa web to edit. While sharing the pics over here, I use the google photos/ Picasa web link of each pic and save them.
