Sat morning
0330 hours I am up, am going on
My first ride with InddieThumpers after trying to ride with them, since Nov
2015, something had been slipping and I had not been able to catch up with the guys
for a while, inspire of my best effort
Yes wanted to make sure I did
not hold up anyone,
And finally I was out of the
door by 0500 hours
Proud of myself that I had
made good time, n as I reached the designated spot, to meet up with a rider,
and he was a tad late, so I waited
Watched the folks and saw the
women folks mostly headed to get water for there family, making multiple trips,
no one was bugged all seemed to be calm and going about there work, felt good
to see the calm of the morning and yes BMC looks like water is a problem in
many homes, if only you could do something for these people
BUT then even though I am
saying this I do realize it opens up to these people getting lazy and
developing lifestyle diseases as they are not doing not enough manual labor
that the body needs to keep healthy
Some of these ladies were so
good looking and such poise as they balanced the water buckets on there head with
no problem and so sure footed as they crossed the highway, Mercifully no one
got hit as they made the journey across the road multiple times
Finally at 0630 we are ready
to head out to the meeting point in Panel with the other Thumpers, when I
realize, I have a flat tyre, so there I was, n just as luck would have it, I
was like 2 feet from a Puncture repair shop and the guy was nice enough to do
the work as needed to fix the puncture, To remember and remind - the bike kept up its good Mojo, Never have I suffered a puncture in the 27 of owning the bike EVER when I am not near a puncture shop
while we stood around and had a round of Tea to start the day - Punit, his wife Geetika and Moi
To be continued ...
