Royal Enfield: Kashmir to Kanyakumari...



The Ultimate Procrastinator, as Rajesh calls himself, who loves his bike, would indeed have had A memorable and thrilling travelogue, from Kanyakumari to Kashmir…I at times envy him, for he dared to do what his heart wanted, with his friends..….Through, the Himalayas, Manali-Ladakh-kargil road….…a total distance of 2535.74 km ..





I realized it ever more when we had a spectacular ride, faster and memorable one on the 28th of February 2010 Sunday, with recorded hottest day of the season in the past four years at 31.6 degrees Celsius...to and from Ernakulam-Allapuzha, attending two functions with a span of four hours; and then to the classes...


On the Royal Enfield so much better than Super Splendor, Ambition, karisma, Bajaj Pulsar, ….smooth, comfortable, not the…AVL engined bullets but the cast iron engine bullets..


Travel teaches you so many things: Out of necessity, you make so many inventions…And you will have memories to cherish…



Venice of the East...Allapuzha..
And when its a bike, you are with the common man, but travelling, you can see them, feel them, stop for them, and get along, through the busiest of traffic...that is why, I love them...
