Yesterday, Ashwin was in A'bad and 9 of us in Pune decided to go 'biking' to a spot near Pawna dam , 45 kms from pune on a beautiful day. The 'place + weather' factor made the trip really cool. The 'No-Civilization' factor added to the fun and so the directions I am giving you might be FAKE. (You have to take me with you)
Ashwin's absence also meant that his 223 CC motorcycle , with a maximum power of 17 PS @ 7000 rpm, KARIZMA which goes from 0 to 60 kmph in mere 3.8 seconds was at my disposal.
5 bikes and 9 people meant somebody was to ride alone and everybody decided it was ME (read as...good bike disadvantage).
Surprise...Surprise!! I am not ALONE. Enter 'RAJU'...and we kept talking about movies , Gandhi, Indian Roads, Clinton's autobiography, Gmail, his fictitious love-life, Joshi wadewale, Matrix, 'Tom and Jerry',10 Downing Street and the pain in his left knee (read as supposed reason given for not riding).
Thats the best thing about Raju, he is always free, readily available and conversations on any topic lead to strange conclusions and realizations.
I know what you are thinking...
But if Herbie can go to MonteCarlo , Raju and I were just sentient entities heading to Powna.
P.S. Biking - the process of going for a long journey by bike.
P.P.S. - For more about the place , ask Gayatri she'll describe it for you. Best of luck , you will know why.
