Dreams....


It's so hard when you know you want something but you can't get it so you find an alternative which only satisfies you to a certain extent but still you got that big dream stuck in your head finding all sorts of opportunities to come out..

Yes for me, I've always wanted to do motocross, sadly this country is the wrong one. There is no proper place to do anything, bikes are so expensive, maintainence is so expensive etc.. I used to own a KTM 200 dirt bike(Which was the bike of my dreams)but over time i realised, petrol drinks too much, regular servicing is required and mainly the ride is uncomfortable for long distances.. After much thought put into it, my dad asked me the question if i wanted to keep it or find an alternative.. He explained to me its not practical which i agree with.. My heart wanted to keep it, really really badly but i decided hey maybe dad's right..

Eventually bought an Aprilia RS-125 which has no doubt been a superb bike, but everytime i see dirt bikes on the road, i just get amazed by the beauty of it, the sound of it, the whole image i always wanted.. And when i look back, i've never considered being a GP racer.. I've always imagined myself jumping sand dunes or at the local track stuff like that.. It's hard to accept the fact that i gave that bike up.. Maybe in future, I'll fulfill it..
