The first ride!!!

April 14-16, 2006 Noida-Nainital-Ranikhet-Bheemtal-Saattal-Noida

Since, March we have been chattering and planning for a motor-bike road trip to some place in Uttranchal. I will give all the credits to Rahul (one of us) for motivating me and few other guys to join this wild trip (thought earlier but turned out to be a cool experience). Initially, nine people showed interest and gave an affirmative nod, but as usual some gave up on the last moment due to one reason or the other. I want to be honest here that I myself wasn’t quite sure that such a trip can happen around me.

Nevertheless, the planning materialized for five of us (from left)

Raghu – cheesy, had done such ride before
Sandeep – he has some affection with his helmet, read on…
Vinu – calm and composite personality
Rahul – almost six-feet with a mischievous 5.5 kgs heavy and bulky lump of mass called brain
Myself – since, this is my memoir they will not get any chance to write about me
