Riding bicycles in school uniform must have been fun, my son was doing. Once a policeman stopped him and this fellow got so scary...but the policeman asked him to drop him at a place a couple of KM away! Imagine a policeman sitting behind a boy in school uniform in a scooter!<br /><br />I went to a riding school to learn to ride a two wheeler...but it stopped with that. Father and son were reluctant to get me a two wheeler...the dream gone the drain!<br /><br />I still envy women riding bikes...! <br /><br />Interesting post, RGB!Sandhyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06478831923010850316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505046.post-91940999553853964222010-08-09T07:58:42.553+05:302010-08-09T07:58:42.553+05:30@ Radha,

I learnt to drive just as I was done with college, but my dad ( the car was his prized possession) came a couple of times, but then he was nervous, and asked me to take the car out on my own. I should have, but then I was reluctant to do that. And and another time, I learnt to ride a moped, I almost drove it into my dad's car. After which I did not drive ever, and now traffic gets me nervous. I have turned into one of those back seat drivers - the kind you hate.radhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05837846875386312338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505046.post-21095579455769749112010-08-05T07:38:01.783+05:302010-08-05T07:38:01.783+05:30@Bikramjit,

Good to know...@Bikramjit,<br />Better late than never ;P<br />Good to know that your passion for bikes & jeeps hasn't waned over the years. And you're actually taking your favourite vehicle with all the jazz right up to UK to keep your passion alive! And you can fly? Can visualize the sight, on the bike in that pose and with the turban on ;D<br /><br />@Arjit,<br />Glad you like my story on wheels. Wish I knew how to fly a helicopter. Given a chance, I would love to try!RGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15279590663523317849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505046.post-24183143805340672462010-08-04T16:42:59.774+05:302010-08-04T16:42:59.774+05:30Loved the tale of your "driving".

Got a chance to fly the Glider many times (subject for another post)!<br /><br />@Nona,<br />That was in a place called Salem. And traffic was not anything like what we have now, back then.
