Hi, all this is Ashwin, 21, from Hyderabad. I've spent 18 years of my life, from birth until age of 18, in New Jersey/New York in the United States. I came to India for some personal reasons and stayed back to finish my degree.
I come from a long line of passionate bikers. My grandfather owned two Rajdoot 175s, an RD350 LT, and a Matchless. My father had a Yezdi Model B and a Yezdi 350cc; my uncle inherited the Model B and (much) later bought himself a CBR 954. My youngest uncle is a top-level executive with Hero Honda who now drives fancy cars but owned a Lambretta in his day.
Having spent two years in the States where I was eligible to drive, I owned a Ninja 650R and enjoyed it thoroughly. My father had a Ducati 996 for about 8 months before he gave up riding due to back pains. So as you can see biking is in my blood.
Now I have completed my course and wish to become an automotive journalist. I plan to sell my Apache 150 in favour of a Bullet 350 Machismo. By the age of 25 I want to be settled in the States or New Zealand and have a Yamaha FZ1 and a Suzuki M1800R.
Biking is a passion of mine, something which gives me an ethereal connection with God, the earth, the tarmac, and nature. In a car, you are driving through the elements yet on a bike, you are one with the road and the weather. Surely, biking is the most spiritual of hobbies and a sure path to nirvana. I am also a big advocate and follower of full riding gear at all times. Though I have been on xBHP for a year, it is now only that I have used it to its maximum potential. I hope to learn much from everyone here, and try my best to help those who need it.
Cheers, and ride safe.
