That four letter word which is
not in everyone’s luck (naseeb) as they say.
That four letter word which moves
your soul. That four letter word every men what to experience at least once in
their life. That four letter word which has changed my life and brought
exuberance to it. That four letter word is “BIKE”.
I was fallen into this passion of
biking when a short college bunk ride grew to be a serious passion. Considering
my first ride was in 2006, its almost 11 and more than a Lakh kilometres of
riding. The best part of being on road and riding a motorbike is that the
number of places you have seen is always much lesser than the number of places
to be seen and hence you can actually be on road riding motorcycle for ever and
still there will be so many places unseen.
Before I really had a concrete
plan to do the Leh ride , I had plans of doing Rajasthan , however the after
nearly 3 years after my Leh Ride I was lucky to ride in this beautiful state
Rajasthan.
In this blog I will try to take you on a photograph tour of this lovely state.
