For you, what does it mean to be a motorcyclist?
A safe rider who can drive in any condition on any roads. Should have passion to drive. One should love and understand their vehicles engine.

How has motorcycling changed you and your life?
Have got motivated . Most important it has remove fear of long drives I use to be scared how would I do it who would be there if any problems comes up.. now nothing stops me.

How would you justify the inherent dangers and risk involved in long distance touring on motorcycles?
If u r a true rider there is nothing called danger. A true rider is a safe rider who can take risk and avoid danger. To gain something u always have to risk something.

Tell us briefly about your 2 most memorable motorcycle tours?
My first trip was to Kaza in Himichal with my fried Vipin. He showed me the interior and rural areas of Himicha and also snowfall which I had never seen. I was in 2013 month of may. 2nd one was Leh which was again in 2013 june and all alone.

As a motorcycle tourer, how have you contributed to the society/brotherhood and plan to do so in the years to come?
Not Much but once I finished my these two trip people use to ask me about the route the way and what all to see around I use to feel happy guiding them.

What are the best and the worst things about motorcycle touring in India?
There is only the best and the best part different culture different climate different people most important different food. everything in one nation. Worst would be road but not to me “when there is a destination never ask how r the roads just ask is there a way for Bike”.

Golden Question : How do you feel when you ride?
This would be the best feeling that i have no worried just never ending road just want to go on and on.... when i see so may cultures, different people and especially different food Just feel proud to be born in India.
