Times when my Bull has failed Me

-
There has been thrice when my bullet has failed me. 1> The accident which I had mentioned in one of my blogs had resulted in stalling of my bullet. I was unable to move it even an inch forward. Then I had dismantled the disk brake and started my bull in that state itself. It was able to take me safely to the service center twenty kms away. 2> The second instance was when my clutch system was totally ruined. I was trying hard to start my bull but my kick itself was not working. It just behaved as if I have pressed the clutch lever. I adjusted the clutch several time and some how I was able to start it. I straightaway took it to service center and they changed the whole clutch system. 3> This time on one fine morning it failed to start. Usually it used to start in single kick, but this day i tried numerous times with no result. It was not cold also. I tried the choke, pressed the kick several times after pulling the clutch lever. But no result. Luckily my bike was on higher altitude, so i just tried to roll it down the slope in first gear with clutch lever pulled. After some time i released the clutch and it started. Funniest part is that I haven't taken it to service station after that and it is behaving like good old days starting in just one kick.

Freindship Day'10

This year two of my brothers were there with me at my flat. Last day we watched Once upon a time in mumbai, a movie filled with heavy dialogues, great characters. I didn't like the way one of the leading lady was treated in movie, it was definitely not a respectful way to treat a lady. I couldn't figure out why was she in love with the lead. But this is not what I'm going to talk about today. I want to scribble about something which happened for the first time today. In the evening my brothers left for Pune some two hours before the train timing so that they have enough time to reach the station before train. I'll come back to this point again to tell you what happened with them. So, as soon as they left I and my flatmate left for BTM Layout to surprise his sister as it was her b'day. We went on my brand new RE Classic 350 which was delivered just a month before after a waiting period of six months. So you can imagine how much did I love my bike for which I could wa...

Better than paper

So, finally after a long gap I'm back. When you leave an activity for long enough you feel very jittery and white knuckled to return to that activity. For the first few days it seems to be as naive as starting afresh. The same is the case with this activity also. Anyways, but I'll give it a shot. And you must never say never Boss. Dialogue of Kamlesh in straight. It proves my new found liking for this character. There was a quote in the famous book "A Young Girl's Diary". Papers have more patience than people. I'm feeling exactly the same thing. I want to share some feelings but don't know whom to share with. My friends, all are settled with their job. Got extremely busy with their work. I can't blame them. Everyone has to be like that in this grim economic scenario. Or else you'll be out of your office with a lot of hush-hush. I think this is just a hoax feeling, about my friends getting busy, but I can't help it. So, after a long gap which is...

Swimming Madness

-
This is from the time when I didn't know how to swim. I can recall two incidents from that time which are worth mentioning. The first one was at chhatth'2000 and the second at chhatth'2001. In our village we used give aragh at the bank of the river opposite to our village as that bank had sand. We used to call it baluahi ghat. So, the day before teenagers from our gaon used to swim across to decorate the other bank. Decoration was a symbol of reserving the place for us. We used ribbons, series bulbs, banana trees etc, to decorate the place. Back to the point, it was the day before the festival. All teenagers were crossing the river. There was a boat also and as I was a novice swimmer(that would also be boasting, I just used to throw my arms and legs), I was on the boat. As the boat reached the mid river my uncle asked if I knew swimming. I don't know what occurred to me, I nodded in yes. Then he just said jump in the water why the hell are you on the boat, enjoy man. Wi...
