From Activa to Royal Enfield – My True Travel Journey from Delhi to Kerala

Image
πŸ›΅ From Activa to Royal Enfield – My Journey from Delhi to Kerala By Rider Punkaj | Safar Sanskriti The First Step – Solo Activa Ride to Haridwar Every journey begins with one brave step — mine started early one morning from Delhi to Haridwar on my Activa scooter . It was a solo adventure of around 450 km in a single day. Riding through the misty highways before sunrise, reaching the holy Ganga ghat for a peaceful Ganga Snan , and returning to Delhi the same evening — it was pure freedom on two small wheels. That one ride taught me that adventure is not about the machine, but about the heart behind it. Rishikesh Ride – 17 Royal Enfields, One Brotherhood The next chapter was louder and stronger — a Royal Enfield-organized group ride to Rishikesh with 17 riders . The thump of engines, mountain air, and brotherhood of bikers made it unforgettable. Riding through scenic roads surrounded by forest and hills, we celebrated both the road and the bond we shared.

Meteor 350 Ride Preparation: Bike Service, Gear & Camera Setup Before the Journey

Image
🏍️ Next Ride Preparation on My Meteor 350 – Before the Journey Begins Every long ride begins much before the wheels start rolling. Sometimes, the destination is clear; sometimes, it isn’t. But the preparation— that’s where the real journey starts . As I sit beside my Royal Enfield Meteor 350, I can already feel that familiar excitement building up. The weather is changing, the urge to ride is stronger, and though the final route isn’t decided yet, my mind and my machine both are gearing up for the road ahead. πŸ”§ Full Bike Service – Before the Road Calls Before any ride, I trust my Meteor 350 to take me safely and smoothly wherever I go. But that trust comes from care. I always prefer giving it a complete check-up before setting out. Engine oil: I always check the oil level and condition. Fresh oil makes a big difference in engine smoothness, especially on long rides. Brake pads & discs: Safety comes first. I get both front and rear brakes inspected and cleaned. Any de...

Solo vs Group Ride – What I Learned as a Rider | Safar Sanskriti

Image
  🏍️ Solo vs Group Ride – What I Learned as a Rider By Safar Sanskriti with Rider Punkaj “Some roads are meant to be ridden alone, some are meant to be shared — but every road teaches something new.” Every biker dreams of the open road — and after years of exploring India’s hills, forests, and backwaters, I’ve learned something unique about riding solo and with a group . πŸŒ„ The Freedom of Riding Solo There’s magic in a solo ride. Just you, your bike, and endless horizons. The wind becomes your companion, silence your music. During my first solo ride, I stopped wherever my heart desired — small tea stalls, quiet temples, and scenic viewpoints. Those moments taught me patience, self-reliance, and awareness. Every mile showed me something about myself. But solo rides aren’t always romantic. Bad weather, punctures, or long lonely stretches test your courage. You miss laughter, a helping hand, and shared excitement. Pros of Solo Ride: ✅ Freedom & flexibility ✅ Self-gr...

India’s Hidden Cultural Gems – Untold Stories from the Heart of the Country

India’s Hidden Cultural Gems – Untold Stories from the Heart of the Country Whenever someone  about India, the first names that usually come up are the Taj Mahal, Jaipur, or Kerala’s backwaters. But for me, the real magic of India is not just in these famous places — it’s in the corners where stories are still alive, where traditions breathe, and where culture has not been lost in the noise of modern tourism. On my journeys, I have come across some incredible spots — cultural gems that many travelers have never even heard of. Today, I want to share a few of them with you. 1. Majuli Island, Assam – The Island of Stories Majuli is the world’s largest river island, floating on the mighty Brahmaputra. Famous for its Satras (monasteries) , traditional mask-making and pottery, Majuli still preserves centuries of art and spirituality. An evening with the monks feels like stepping back in time. 2. Ziro Valley, Arunachal Pradesh – Music in the Hills Home to the Apatani tribe , Zi...
