Bike, a new phase of life.

“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.

A thousand obstacles comes in our way while riding a motorcycle, it is important that we stay focused all the time. Even if you follow all traffic safety rules, it just takes one idiot on road to fuck up things for you. (just like in our lives)

We see people ride bikes very fast.

We see people with smaller bikes, go slow.

“Never ride faster than your guardian angel can fly.”


Reaching the destination should never be the goal if you are going on a ride.

The small breaks you take, noticing things in your surroundings, watch people break traffic rules, see different shades of green, THE SKY!, difference in air while entering a remote forest zone, looking out for traffic police and think if you have all the bike documents, getting pissed at government for not fixing a potholes, a bus / heavy vehicle blocking your way and all these small things adds up to the wonderful experience of bike ride.

A smooth bike ride makes you forget about things. It is just you and your bike, having a great time.

It is the journey that matters, not the destination...

When I die, I just hope that I feel the same sense of relief you feel when you reach the destination after a beautiful journey.

A feel of satisfaction that I've lived my life to the fullest without missing out on anything.
