Because It Seemed Like A Good Idea

Almost a year ago, exactly to the day.
22nd of December, 2006.

On a bike that had been recently refurbished, head to toe.
Recently being 22nd of December, 2006, 11 a.m.

Through a bitterly cold winter night.
On a highway that is not really much of anything.

A ride that took me all of twenty six hours.
Including six hours of shivering in a blanket at a A1 Reliance Petrol Pump.

An engine that seized up twice, oil that needed topping up twice, a fuel tank that was met a fuel nozzle five times in one day.
A bike that ran out of fuel, a lunch that took nearly two hours, Punekar truckers who played Good Samaritans and a bike ride that was a bike ride.

Kulkarni rode to Pune on the 22nd of December, 2006 - and what follows will tell you how.
