Highlights | Day 0 & 1 | Day 2 & 3 | Day 4
Finally, after 3 months after the ride, here comes the trip log – To Goa on a bike. Well, as the saying goes, it is better late than never :p
“When was the last time you did something for the first time?“
A few days before the ride, I read this line somewhere on the internet and struggled hard to remember one such thing, which I did recently. But now, after BN second annual meet, I have plenty to say.
- First ride spanning more than 1000 KMs.
- First group ride – 13 riders for 350 KMs & 19 riders for 30 KMs
- First rain ride – soaked in rain and rode for 250 KMs.
- First ride spanning 20 hours of continuous ride (including tea/coffee, brunch, butt breaks)
- And lot more 🙂
