Biking... Dil se (Riding and Safety tips)

Sharing my experience about biking, i must say you will gonna love it.



5 important qualities that a proficient motorcyclist should possess

In my opinion as a biker I would highly urge for a biker who should have the following qualities to inevitably become a proficient biker:
  1. Intense love to ride the wheels rather than drive it: The feeling of cascaded wind on the face messing up the hairs, stimulating the zeal to tighten the grip on the handle and wedging the seat tougher with legs, these feelings can only be understood by a passionate motorcyclist.
  2. Love the mechanical miracle to be able to run on two wheels: The knowledge of what you love is equally necessary as its well maintenance decides its longevity and performance. Therefore every screw which has contributed to invent such a miraculous machine which runs on two wheels should be equally loved and cared with their proper understanding.
  3.  The unquenchable thirst of an explorer: An idle person cannot be a biker. The impalpable relation of a bike and his biker is just due to one common passion and that is to explore the unexplored places.
  4. Love the speed of two wheels but not its ability to run on one wheel: A true biker rides for his own pleasure, not for the entertainment of others. Stunts are to show off, and it’s nowhere in the diction of a true motorcyclist. As the machine performs on set rules, likewise a biker should respect the rules of traffic.
  5. A creative being who sees the world through own perspective: It may sound a bit absurd, but a true biker will never like to be seated behind, without taking the control of the grip on the road. This reveals that a true biker will always want to experience every thing in his own way.

Familiarize yourself with unfamiliar bike and start riding it.

A true biker is like a jockey who is trying on a new pony. Well, the moment I wedge it in between my legs and grip its handle and look ahead, the confidence will rise and half of the battle is won. The other most important part is the timing between the clutch, gear and accelerator. Most of the time, after knowing the gear movements, the first move doesn’t really gets familiar as the release of the clutch and the pump of accelerator doest match and with a jerk it’s stopped. I’ll take care of this. Then comes the handle part, how familiar is it on the turns? Few moments later, both the bike and the biker will be familiar with each other and will be ready to gossip with the wind.


Safe riding the main part of biking.

Bikes are not manufactured to perform stunts. Traffic rules are set not to delay the life, but to save the life. Every machine has a gear and it can’t work without it; likewise there are gears for riding either, so a helmet should be wore inevitably. 



Activity to make motor cycling a safe and fun in India

I would like to organize a bike rally strictly based on an environment awareness campaign, just for a simple example “No plastic”, and target the cities, schools and colleges. It will also include the promotion and exhibition of true riding gears, like fashionable helmets, leather pants, riding goggles, boots etc. In fact these all will be the dress code for the participant riders. In Addition to these there will short educational campaigns regarding the riding disciplines. The rally will also emphasize on setting up small riding clubs on every place and abide them by the laws of riding clubs where riding disciplines will be the prominent terms and conditions of membership.
