I just love to ride… yea you could bet on that blind… While its raining cats and dogs out on the streets, you ride over 30 kms with almost dead bike brakes yet maintaining an average speed of 70kmph… it cant be anything else. You simply love biking! Drenched in one of those few unmerciful heavy rains in Goa, I was travelling back to Panaji from Vasco. And it was certainly the best ride I have ever had!
I am not a great fan of rains… infact I hate them because everywhere I go on bike, I have to carry my rainwear… Today while I had over 30kms of travel to reach back to Panjim there was a sudden (nah! expected) downpour of rain which didn’t look like one that would stop soon. Nor was I in to wait for it to die out of water. Luckily I had a jacket… but my trouser was soon getting all soaked. Kinda giving a cooling effect everytime a little more of it got wet :p. Soon it was all heavy as though it had drank over 100 gallons of water. Wearing my jeans which were more water and less denim by now, I just couldn’t care for the roadside dingy water splashing all over me as wagons paved through puddles. What I was busy enjoying, was my ride in the rain… (more…)
