Ride to Satara.
As it was an unplanned trip I decided to go to Kolhapur. This destination was randomly selected because of the awesome winter weather setting in. I left at 10 o'clock Friday night after a tiring day in the office. I love to unwind my busy week in rides as u all know. I asked my friends even when I wanted to go alone for the ride . Then finally on my last try I asked my cousin brother Sumukh Deshprabhu residing @Pune. He agreed and I left for Pune and planned to pick him on the way to Kolhapur. But after reaching Pune at 1:30 am it took almost 3 hrs in searching his address as I had to take out my cell and search the route through GPS. While searching for directions I met strange people. One such person I met was a stall keeper and was on his way home; shutting his store, when I asked him the address. The reply he gave was very funny. He said go straight there you will see a traffic signal. it will show green signal when I heard it I was surprised and wondered how the hell he came to know that it will be green. And he said no it can be Red or orange. I felt like laughing. then again after that he said the signal can show any of these 3 colors as it is night now. I actually started laughing in front of him then that man realised it and he also started laughing with me.
After that I went ahead and at last met my brother. And we left for Kolhapur at 3:30 am. But we were not aware that the weather will be so cold that even after wearing my #rynox riding jacket I started shivering because when I was leaving from Mumbai I was sweating so I didn't carry the inner liners of the jacket. And when we reached near Khambaste ghat it was 6:30 in the morning. There was still a 4hrs journey to reach Kolhapur but we decided to go back. but we realised that being so close to kolhapur and missing the famous Misal Pav is simply not done, so we went to a highway stall and enjoyed the delicious Misal pan as our early breakfast .We definitely enjoyed the ride even when we didn't complete it to the final destination. REMEMBER WHEN WE APPLY THE SAME FORMULA TO OUR LIFE , THE DESTINATION DOESN'T MATTER WHEN YOU ENJOY THE ROUTE TOWARDS DESTINATION AND THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU WHO ARE WITH YOU ALWAYS AS A SUPPORT. Thanks to my darling wife who allowed me specially to go on the ride and asked me not to hurry back home and rest in Pune for the onward journey. It was thrilling in the cold to go on ride.
