Moving Back to India – Amchi “Mumbai”: Circa 2010.
However, once I knew that I was going back, I was a mix of emotions, apprehensions ….. would I re-adjust, would I like it, would I get used to the heat, dirt, etc, all associated with Bombay and India.

Sunday Ride: Marine Drive – Camp Evergreen.
It is another Sunday and its that day and time. The day and time to let loose and get onto the saddle and head out of the confines of the City of Bombay.

Chicago to London – Compelled to Compare: Circa 2008/9.
International Mobility is a fantastic experience. You see the good, the bad, the ugly across boundaries. The apartment hunting, the packing & moving, the hooking up of services, setting up shop, getting to know your way around, getting lost quite a bit….I’m quite the veteran at this, having moved from India to Singapore (my very…

See I was supposed to be in the US of A for about three years, and one day as I’m driving to work in my car, the Mercedes GL 450, I get a call from the boss of my boss. He’s a man named Carr.

Cycling: Konkan Solo Ride – May 2016
For starters it wasn’t 400 km, more like 331 (give or take) if we have to believe Google Maps, but it sure felt like a helluva lot more than 400. The Invitation I reached the target on May 22, exactly a month after Majidbhai (The Faisal’s respected father) had called inviting me to the family homestead,…

Sunday Ride – Part 2: The Twist (Cyclink Project), May 8, 2016
Its been more than the “next day – Part 2” threat on this blog post, but as I said, we all have to do a little work from time to time, and so I’ve been swamped all of this past week. Apologies for the delay peeps. Now, where did we leave it last? Was it…

Sunday Ride: With a Twist (Part 1) – May 8, 2016
Sunday May 8 2016 turned out to be a ride, albeit with a difference. Started off disappointed that we were not riding the promised distance. Grudgingly showed up, got over the disappointed mood when together with the pack, and then there was no looking back.
