Winter is coming, dear Snow

Dear Snow, winter is coming.

But, before that happens, bhery bhery bhelcome. u plis cum in2 d garage bhery soon. I know, I know, winter is coming is really scraping the bottom. But that’s how I feel with the current motorcycle. Though it does what it is supposed to, 2 years is about as long as it took to look for something better(?) or maybe just newer.

No point looking away. I know it has been a long time waiting, I won’t take up too much of your time this time around.

Went and test rode it.

A long time friend arranged for this and HSR Lalbagh Road was good enough to accommodate us all early in the day. All the fun was had before heading off to office, with a goofy grin.

Went again with SWMBO and test rode it.

It was a fun ride and we had a great time on it. Instantly knew this would let us do more than our 500 currently does.

RE Himalayan Test Ride Bike
Granite coloured Himalayan that we test rode.

Black (Granite) is nice, but I was sure I wanted white (Snow).

Booked.

Filled out the forms, at HSR Lalbagh. Efficient chaps out there, went smooth.

Paid.

5,000 rupees and I had the folder with the details in hand. They accepted cards without charging me extra like a certain dealer did earlier.

Waiting for delivery. They say it is a couple of months wait, but I am hoping it will be sooner.

Excited.

’nuff said.

Dear Snow, winter is coming. How about riding a royalenfield himalayan bike?

No wait, look at that front wheel size. I mean, really, look at it. And the ground clearance. And, that seemingly well made exhaust header and end cans. I can hope for it to not rust maybe. Just maybe? And, the stance. Suspensions that on the test ride worked on bad roads.

Now, ’nuff said.
