My feet are practically itching to step back into the canvas of this place. @bytherivercafeandstays

World Motorcycle Day

Stunning, unreal, and heartbreakingly distant. This bike belongs on our roads, but do you see it coming to India? Odds: slim. Want: very much.

Somedays, you just post, doesn't need to make any sense, right!

Three runs between 2022 and 2024.

From building expensive dreams in a cheap world to carrying responsibilities on my shoulders like bales, every turn on this trail feels like a step closer to the self I’m searching for.

That song is from Neelakasham Pachakadal Chuvanna Bhoomi — the same film that sparked a whole generation’s itch to ride away. For a lot of kids back in 2013 it became a manifesto; for me it was more like a soundtrack to memory. I remember the wind on the highway, the nitrogen-cold mornings in the northeast, the way the paper map tapped on my tank blurred into a single line of possibility. Listening to that track now, I’m back on narrow mountain roads, petrol fumes and chai stops, a pack of friends laughing at a busted tyre and the sun lowering over a valley I’d sworn I’d never forget. It wasn’t just cinema inspiring travel — for us it was confirmation. The movie nudged a dream into motion, but the miles I rode before and after it are what made that dream mine!

POV: that toe I sprained three weeks ago says ‘I’ll get to it later'

We left the city when it was still holding its breath.

When your brain says 'maybe not' and your friend says 'hold my chai'

I still run the Baja Squadron Pros for nights on the trails — Lumevo X1s are great on-road, but when I hit trails after dark I want every inch of light I can get. The Squadron Pros driving combo with double the intensity, throw a punchy, 170° wide flood that fills the close-in trail and lights up roots, rocks, and ruts further ahead than anything I have used, so I can pick lines faster and ride safer. They’re perfect for technical sections where depth and contrast matter most.

Nice surprise from the Lumevo X1 Pro.

You think you just nailed a trail route, then someone on a humble scooter shows up and breezes right past. I'm sure most of us here have faced this some time or object

They say travel changes you, but you don't really notice it until you look back at a ten-year-old photo. A decade on the move has a beautiful way of softening your edges, teaching you resilience, and making you a better human. Eternally grateful for every mile that got me here.

There’s a distinct moment a few miles into a night ride where the mental noise just… stops. The clutter of the day gets left behind in the rearview, replaced by the steady rhythm of the engine and the cool night air. It’s not about escaping reality; it’s about finding the headspace to process it.

Tried an experiment with room temperature brewing in an @aeropress - outcome was better than expected!

Leave the road. Find the silence, the chaos, and yourself somewhere in between.

Come with me, and you'll be, in a world of pure imagination!

360 cams went from shaky, low-res toys in 2018 to compact, stabilized, hi‑res workhorses. Now you can mount them anywhere, capture everything, and reframe in post to create multiple POVs from one take.
