Fucchas

It was at Lonar that I really realized How a Fuccha must be feeling coming to ride with a club for the first time. You are generally a hero, a studd with a bike - a big show off!!! But then when u register for a ride and reach a starting point - i am sure it would freak the coolest of dudes.

Experienced Riders, their rapport with other riders even the club lingo. It would definitely take a while to get used to the nicknames and the history behind it.

I wouldnt call it sadism but a procedure to teach life - whole day you get to soak in the self glory and when the night fall there starts a session of ice breaking. How is it different from the handshake and intro , pleasure to meet you dialogues \m/ hahha the devilish laugh. It is pretty obvious if we were so sweet to you do you think we deserve to carry the attitude.

This phenomena gets accentuated in teenager who join us for the first ride. They have this know it all feeling and we know what they have seen in life. Also they still dont know how to judge situations and how they should be reacting in it. lol

You are in actual roadies - what they have been trying to portray if you are in a RM or a Gaddha Mania where more than one club participate.

All said and done - just how ragging in engineering is a forum to build rapport so is our sessions. And we do know our limits depending on the poor soul in front of the riders who had a day of Riding Hard as they call it.

Kyun har rider chutti chutti karta rehta hai

As any explorer would agree biggest set back to just traveling and exploring is money. well don't just read it literally - if we are working towards earning, the next thing that hinders our way is LEAVEs.

Lazy goose that I am i don't apply for leave before hand for I believe planning never takes us anywhere, but fate does. Still I have plan A, B, C...and so on!!! Is that of use, when Murphy's law kicks into action.

The Grand Plan for the next few weeks included: 
Lonar, Aurangabad, Ajanta Ellora and Grishneshwar
Tarkarli
Goa
Bordi


Gaddha Mania with Bisons: Why is this such an important ride for me:
1. Personally I got to know about the Bisons after their ride to Lonar. 2. Now that I missed RM, wouldn't want to miss the next best opportunity to meet with fella riders from many other clubs. 3. Havent had a ride that would test my endurance 550+ kms one way and as our Captain says "NO PIT STOPS" - a meek voice in me says "aye aye captain"

Googlake pata chala, I can combine Grishneshwar Ajanta Ellora and Aurangabad. Them Samzy was also enthu for not wasting his leaves on Holi. We found more bakras - Sandy and Mihir. Captain was enthu but chutti ke problems.

Chote mote issues keep popping up. Too Chi and Samzy met with accident caused by oil spill. But just in time langda tyagi and TooChi were able to ride :) yay Tested this fact in NKF rally.

Again everything seemed set. you think so.. my colleague's nani was in life support. SymK went to Delhi. Syal bhi nahi. Realistically the extension to trip - well atleast i am not in. Sad !!! So much for my PLANNED SICK LEAVE. 

And I was giving gyaan to Samzy - Bandha toh kabhi bhi bimaar padh sakta hai. This plan was formulated when Samzy didnt get leave for Dajipur. The ride captain himself absconds for the ride. He had applied for leave and boss rejected in the last moment. Because he had told it earlier he couldnt even pull an Sick Stunt. After my case I realized kabhi bhi koi bhi bimaar pad sakta hai. Haan others can also fall ill.

Then Samzy also gets into hurricane of work - i was sadistically happy that if i am not going, no one is going but then Shana that he is jugaad maarke last moment ie on wednesday evening, got sandy and mihir ready.

Now they have reached Aurangabad. Seen Ajanta Ellora Grishneshwar and Bibi ka Maqbara. And I am sitting in office trying to work out a deal. Well it was a dilemma between ride vs responsibility. I would probably go parents come to visit me.

Story ends?? No, till 3 am i wont know if I would go to Lonar. Somewhere I feel i would somehow make this happen. Stupid teleco deal. I hate it.

The jist of the whole post is - you need to earn a ride, more the struggle the better it is. woh ride hi kya jispe blog na likhi jaaye!!!
