Lessons from motorcycling

Over 20 years ago, an ad for the newly launched Bajaj Avenger 180cc instantly gave me motorcycling goals. Thanks to that ad, I was sold on the feeling of the wind across your face as you cruise down highways. That’s how I bought my first motorcycle.

That’s also how I fell in love with cruising — though it took me another decade to do cross-country trips.

So when Royal Enfield invited me on a two-week ride — Unseen North East — along the border states to experience the slow life, I said yes. As a solo rider who’s never been part of a pack, I was determined to make it work, even if it meant riding with a group of 25 bikers for just a week.
