Hi everyone,
I'm Deekshith and I live in Delhi. Originally from Kerala, I moved here some months back. Suffice to say I'm still exploring and getting a feel of this new city.
After riding my friends' bikes for years, I finally got my own last month. Desert Storm 500. Thanks for adding me here.
Ask me why we ride.
We don't ride for the speed. And not for the glory of victory lasting till the next signal.
We don't ride for the suffocating dust of the city. And definitely not for the idiot who barges into our back wheel when the traffic moves at 5kmph.
Not flash. Not gloss. Not the cheap plastic.
Then what, you ask.
The joy of the wind kissing you on a cold morning.
The embrace of absolute silence at a sunset.
The excited waves of a 5 year old on a curve.
The sheer euphoria of conquering new roads.
The rumble of pure freedom.
And the feel of a thump in your heart. That damned thump.
Now we ask you. Why do you not?
