“You do not need a therapist if you own a motorcycle, any kind of motorcycle!”   The quote pretty much says it all. Many people buy motorcycles just to travel from one place to another. Very few buy it to enjoy the rides, visit new places and feel the positive vibes when the wind hits our face. I was one among those who brought it to ignore the daily mundane routines and enjoy small rides. It is a beautiful feel when you and your bike are on the same page while on road. When you read many self-help books, you can relate small things that happen to you and make an example out of it.

Nobody were prepared for the disaster that was heading our way, including majority of workplaces. This worked to my advantage as I got to work from home.

Well, we proved...
