  • Hello from Kanpur

    Hi

    I am Abdul from Kanpur. I am a geek (software, hardware), and an entrepreneur. I have spent some years in Bangalore, Pune and Mumbai.

    I have been on xbhp forums for a while, and been learning something new every time I visit here. I am inspired by so many people here, I must have read same ownership reviews, trip/tour reports and motorcycle reviews many times.

    I have always loved motorcycle since I was a kid but I am a rookie when it comes to riding one. I could afford, and buy motorcycles only when I started working some 10-12 years back.

    I own Honda Unicorn and Honda CBR250R. I am planning to upgrade to another sport touring machine (600cc to 1000cc) by mid 2015.

    I haven't done much (exclude commute and city ride) on Odo except around 7k in last couple of months of weekends rides on my CBR250R. I have so far done a 500km on any single day.

    I am yet to go on my long solo tour (North - West - South - North). Hopefully that happens soon.

    I mostly ride on NH25, NH28, NH2 and state highways of UP (E) during holidays or weekends.

    These days I spend most of my time reading about motorcycles (machine, gears, stories), riding motorcycle and dreaming about my future machines.

    I don't think I have been spending as much time hacking/coding as I used to do a year back. These days, I feel better when I am away from keyboard, and riding my motorcycle.

    I post pics on Instagram, but I am not sure if I can post links here (xbhp terms?). Let me add a few pics here:

    In short, things I wanted to do in my twenties, I am doing those in my thirties. I am glad I can do what I always loved.

    Cheers
