Gonbo Rangjon is my soul mountain.

What others see VS What my camera sees!

Expectations vs Reality : Tamhini Ghats in Monsoon Edition

Rain has a language of its own on the ghats, the soft patter inside the helmet, the misty air, and the endless green wrapping the road like a living frame. It’s the kind of ride that doesn’t just take you through the mountains, it settles something inside you. Monsoon rides can’t really be explained; they can only be felt.

Wide? I thought you said WIDE

So, @thefatmansbike tells me that he knows a place and rides right to the edge of this cliff. It's safe to say that I let out some explicits.

Off all the places I miss in Bangalore, this is definitely one of them.

First monsoon ride of the year and we went straight into the thick of it at Kumbhe. Standard visibility: gone. Cliffs and ridges: completely swallowed by the fog.

Wow, thinking about Pensi La brings back so many memories from the last trip!

Just me and some curves.

2001 - my first ride to the mighty mountains.

Trying out new mic setups till I get awesome audio. I'm still far from desired results.

We climbed to the top of the world to find stillness (yes, even when it was windy as anything), not validation. Looking back at UmLingLa from a time before it became a crowded trophy on a social media checklist. There were no fights for a photo-op back then, just a profound gratitude for the lungs that got us here and a horizon that didn't care about likes. Life is so much simpler when you're collecting moments instead of Guinness World Records certificate.

Two roads diverged in the mountains, and I took the one that looked more adventurous, only to question my choices in life, and by the end of it I got dunked in the freezing cold river and made it out alive.

Edits are getting out of hand.

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!
