Oh all the horns, machines, the clicks,
clings and the screams, stop this. A getaway ride was all that could relieve
me. Bach suite on my playlist, canon 1100D in my bag and a bottle of water, I
climbed my bicycle (not mine though, I borrowed it). All set, I hit the
highway. On a bicycle after a long time, it feels like forever. After about 2
kms and a lot of burned fat, I stopped in front of a scenic countryside farm
with sun setting on its back. I realized my knees and muscles need some
greasing, it was getting hard to pedal the long slopes. To keep my baggage
light as a feather, I had taken only my camera with a kit lens and ditched the
pointless. I took my camera out and shot the beautiful landscapes, contended I
continued my small ride sipping some Luke warm water. The scenic countryside on the left,
sun setting in front of me, vehicles zooming past me in a hurry to reach the
destination and the Bach suite put me into deep thoughts and
put an instinctive smile on my face. After a tiring yet beautiful ride I
reached my journey's end, exquisite it was! I clicked some more photos. If
winter is here, can spring be far behind? Every up will be followed by a down
and vice-versa in this cycle of life. As the famous Kannada phrase goes indeed
my legs started to speak after I reached home.
