Soul on the wheels

A journey is when we need to go to one place to another.We can do it by any mean,normally we want to reach some where,may be as fast as possible.By any means destination is important. But there are times where journey is more important. The road is more in consideration than destination.Yes, I'm talking about riding on a two wheeler mean machine- a motorbike.



If you are a biker you don't worry where you gonna end up as long as long as road runs along with you.You don't worry about who you are,how much money you have,how much have you achieved in life and such serious things.You just tend to enjoy that heavenly feeling of riding your two wheeler and burning some rubber down the asphalt.



There was a scene in movie avatar where a na'vi--a pandroian connects to a horse with his tail when he rides it.He needed not to guide that fellow around by anything.It just read his mind.Same thing is with bikes you need to connect to your machine.When a true biker rides his thing,the rider and bike are not two different parts they are one part.You feel the road through its tires.Engine's gruel is you voice.The accelerator is your speed and world is your playground,you just need to fly.



I don't have a flashy ride to boast with,but I like biking.Though I might just have a 100 cc spelendor,I feel road is mine much more than a R15 or a pulser rider.Though I might not be able to buy a harley davidson,I like the sound of my engine.I might not be a racer but, when i ride my blood mixes with petrol.



I have been riding since 7-8 years,with friends to beaches and picnic spots.With father to distant destinations.Sometimes alone to wander and find my self around,Sometime with professional bikers in rallies.Reasons were different but motive was one--to ride.No matter which bike I had to ride,I enjoyed,had some stops,had some falls but that's part of journey.If your journey is too smooth as a biker there is something wrong,a hint of joy that you missed.You missed a laugh,sharing with you friends laughing off the hurdles you had.

There is still a li'll difference,when you ride with Friends,you ride for just joy.And when I went to mumbai,I did a few Rallies with MBA--mocha bike association,A biker group my cousin Nishant is member of.And boy they do have passion for bikes!I felt at that time,this is what you call biking.I had heard of em' of course but to get a feel to ride with them is a totally a different experiance all together.Its like hearing songs in you headphones and Headbanging with the live ones in the concert.And here the music was the sound of bullets and harleys!

I went to one ride on my own riding a 350 cc bullet machismo,believe me when you ride this beauty first time you really feel raw power with butter smoothness beneath the hood.As the MBA group is of 350+ cc bikes,you get to see some real power rangers.Bikes which you nornally dream owning.MBA has charisma of its own,creating tunes with engine roars and horns.If you are a biker its mozart to your ears.In future I wanna do a long ride with them,surely a memorable one it'll be.Its like playing into EPL for a footballer to be with them.A dream of a biker devil!



Biker is alive till he rides with his heart,the day he rides with his mind,biker within him dies at that instance.So let your heart ignite,let you soul ride n keep rollin'!
