Yepp, you read it right. Am back after a very long hiatus - 5 months to be precise. Blame it all on that dumb, drab and boring World Cup we had in April. So depresssing it was that I could not get myself to sit and write a worthwhile piece after that. But then, thats history now and I will certainly keep blogging at least for another 2 months and 10 days. Hehehe, my blogs are always cryptic so I leave it your imagination.
I must admit that its Big 'P', my buddy from college days who's been the reason i have started again. Go and check out his blog http://bikebloke.blogspot.com/. Leave out the poems though if you want to save yourself, hehe, just skip straight ahead to the last few posts. So what meaningful stuff do I sit and write about at 00:22 hrs. Something that comes to mind straightaway is that I have'nt been out of Chennai all through this year. That makes it 8 months and 3 days in this very same place. That's something which is indeed very strange for me. Normally I make it a point to go out on a trip or a tour every year, but these last 8 months have been so full of activity its been impossible to step out of Chennai. I must say its been a very productive year as far as acquisitons go and also on the personal front :-) . So, before I digress into those unnecessary details for which you folks don't have the privileges, let me tell you that this blog's about travel and adventure. So all you travel weary oldies don't you dare venture any further.
Ever since Prazee(Big P) suggested the idea of a trip to Manali and Leh, I decided that these next 2 months am gonna dedicate to my spirit of adventure and a natural love for travelling that hasn't quite borne fruition. But then at the age of 24, with my best years yet to come (Wow i liked that line) its not too late at all. So for starters we've decided to take my monster bike, my sexy black Pulsar 180 and scorch away to Pondicherry. Just a small matter of 300 kms along the beaches on the wonderful East Coast Road.
Planning has already begun and there will be a blog about it for sure after we return. Right now its about getting the bike in perfect condition for a 600 kms drive. So will have to shrug off my basic trait - laziness and get the monster serviced nice and tight for our drive. Its quite exciting the prospect of driving all the way along ECR, lots of photo ops on the cards and nice weather too at this of the year. Have biked my way through a maximum of 70-90 kms away from Thiruvanmiyur so far, but never got the chance to go further. And with Prazee around its always gonna be an adventure, rewind to Munnar/Chalakudy days :-).
And hey, its gonna be fun for sure.. right now very very sleepy..zzzzz...apologies for a quick finish to this one... lots more I wanna write but then am getting into a nice sexy dream, so that will surely take precedence over the blog. More about travel after the Pondy trip. Keep checking out this space, lots more every day on more debatable and unconventional stuff. For now though am in a hurry, slipping into a nice, lovely ... Wow byeeeee!!!!
