Still driving!

It's been a long time. I've done more than 3000km already, the last thousand or so with Fred and his 350cm Bullet. All through Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and now Orissa.

We're enjoying the beach in Puri at the moment and will stay here for New Year's. After that it's gonna be Calcutta and then into the North East finally!!!

Update Driving Day X

Cant type much... Computer rebooting constantly.

Drove many kilometers. Bike doing fine. Missing screws reattached, tires inflated, oil changed, chain oiled, brake adjusted. Still dirty though. Currently hailing from some place called Allapuzha. Gonna be in Thiruvananthapuram soon. So far no problems, only a 400Rs ticket in Mysore for not wearing a helmet. Was valid for the whole day though...
