Super Woman Returns August 1, 2006

It was raining, raining and raining for three days in a row. I was sitting alone on the bamboo arm chair, getting some warmth from a cup of hot chocolate Horlicks. Each sip was taking me to the nostalgic past, the past which I never mulled.

People give their first salary to their mother but I gave it to her. She is my best friend for two years now. I doubt if a human can selflessly help another the way she has helped me. She cleared all test of time. She was with me when I was on crossroads of my career, she was with me when my only crush got married, she was with me when I could find nobody to go for that stupid movie, and she is still with me when I am all alone feeling cut from my dear ones. She has never ever asked me for any returns and I always took her for granted.
YES!! you guessed it right. She is my darling bike, my HERO HONDA PASSION.

My Horlicks was over and I decided to take her out for the movie “Super Man Returns“.While she soaked in rain, a thought came to my mind that why does her main rival (read Bajaj Pulsar) feels proud in calling itself “Definitely Male”.
Even more surprising is the attitude of modern male who like to ride on ahem ahem..Another Male???? But then this is Kalyug. One cannot deny the weirdest possibility.

I however prefer her. A true female.

Not strong as her male rival but she has three noticeable features which sets her apart. She is trustworthy, levelheaded and a true friend for long term. Her marketers however put some unwanted technicalities and call these feministic qualities as Zero Maintenance, Great Balance and Higher Mileage. May be they need some rethinking.

As always she again took pains for me, jumped the potholes,beat the trafic but finally took me safely to the Multiplex. I had no hassle in obtaining ticket(thanks to rains).But I was certainly late for the show. I was free after sooooo many days and had no intensions to miss even a single minute of movie. I ran and took my seat just on time.Some excitement of 3-D goggles was also there. One and a half hour later, The Super Man was flying everywhere to save innocents and to kill the evils. The 3D effect was pretty good as well. In one of the scenes a huge ocean wave came and almost hit my face. Then came another, then another and then another. But when the fifth wave came, I had to leave my seat. No.., not because I was scared but because I remembered that in a hurry I left my sweet heart on the road-side. I recalled it was a NO PARKING zone.

Do HELL with Super Man and his world saving flight!!! Where is my bike????
I ran and ran and ran but she was no where. The road which was very quite earlier was now clogged with cars, trucks, girlfriends, boyfriends, humans, dogs, policemen and what not, but she was not to be seen. I almost felt like crying, It was all my mistake. How can I do this to her.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR…a truck(fitted with a huge crane) was making ugly sounds adding to my agony. I was about to shout at the driver and there I saw. The number plate was not visible from this distance but her bodyline was so familiar to me. It was definitely her, in the huge jaws of crane. Another 500M run was required to reach The Traffic Police Inspector. Rs. 200 fine was all I had to pay and he set her free.

She was still the same. Looking un-complainingly to me. I hugged her, kissed her and loved her like never before. AND WHY NOT????
My Super Woman was back to me.

Ok…huff puf…reached here first…Hmmm so much of love for “HH passion”…Excusez moi, in my opinion if u had written the same for a harley davidson or a ducati then it wud have been gud..But, hey who can afford those giants…

U found ur comfort in passion, gud for u..

A tiny thought :How did ur bike support u when ur crush got married?..No offence meant..Just wondering?

so sweet!!You are always among the first.One doesn’t get motivation to blog when there is nobody to read.

Now well.. the reality is that my first salary was good for only for HH Passion..the cheapest of all.And I hardly drive above 60 so the makers of Harley Davidson would have felt insulted even if I could possess it.And ya my rule need before greed was always there :) .Now my friends call it a doodh-wala’s bike but she so cute.

For your question..?Hmm this need a post in itself :)

Abe Jitesh..Please don’t work too much in life..I enjoyed the post but it looks like teri halat kafi nazuk hai..

Ekdum correct..your bike to is a typical dhoodh-wale bike..if not much atleast get yourself a Maruti-800 or Santro.Betweem I am comming to Hyd on this 16th and I WON’T ride on your khatara.

Man…”Need b4 greed”…I’m impressed…Very sensible indeed..I’m reminded of ur “Lapomania” post…

Yah, I guess the hyd roads wud b an utter disgrace to a ducati..For all the pot holes and man holes, ur “doodhwala” bike is more efficient.

Awaiting ur next post

Now sooooooooooo many clauses.I liked your style of criticizing.

Girls in general are mad after bikes , so ur luv fo Harley or BMW is understandable..
