Rendezvous

Yes, today was a day similar to a roller coaster ride. I had my own moments of happiness and sadness. I was very happy because my bestest ( Can anyone help me with a better word? ) good friend came out with me without speaking a word when I asked her to. Not that this is the first time that we went out. But every single time, we end up having to convince each other. I try to convince her to come and she has her own reasons not to come and I will have to fight and try hard for quite sometime. But this time everything went as per plan.

I desperately wanted to go out today as I won't be able to step out for most part of tommorrow and the New Year's eve due to some domestic issues. Hence this was supposed to be a big moment and I should thank Guru for having helped me out today with this. We had good time at the Besant Nagar beach. I never wanted to leave that place within just one hour of being there. But damn the traffic. It sucks big time and we had to start early so as to come home in time. It almost took us more than one hour and fifteen minutes for the destination. It would not take more than half an hour if there is no traffic. So started back disappointingly. But then, to be frank, this is one of the happiest moments this year. I'd have liked to click a few pics today, but then, Guru seemed totally out of sorts and he was acting quite weird and never let us take a pic!!!

Coming to point of me being sad. I'm finding myself very very attached with my bike these days specially after my road-trip which kindled the love in me for my awesome awesome bike. I have all the reasons in the world to be unhappy today. I had parked my bike outside my house today morning and someone destroyed the decals of my bike. Damn!! I hate it very much. It has already happened to me and it took so long to get it set right. But today I was shattered and I almost broke down. Not that I'm trying to be too romantic with my bike or trying to make the issue big, but I felt so very attached with my bike. The very moment I saw it I felt like - " Damn! Why do you guys have to do it? It looks better when the decals were there. " I didn't know what to do other than look around the bike for any other damage. Luckily, there were none.

The second reason for me being unhappy was because of the ****ing guys at Pro-Biking, Adyar. These guys don't understand one thing. Its my bike and it is upto them to prepare the bike according to my needs. They never set the brakes right. After every service, I have to ask them to re-do the brake system and they do nothing more than a shitty job with it. My braking has gone on an all time low. They almost don't stop my bike. During this service, I guess they also tampered with my suspension system I guess. Its gone way too soft and my bike nose-dives during every single stop/deceleration. This time, it didn't stop there. They have not even done anything right with the engine I guess. The engine has lost its crisp and it goes off mid way while riding.

What the ****? This is supposed to be the best bike made in the country and all I expect is proper work done. The worst part is that they provide something called free service and this time my bill came to almost thousand bucks and nothing has been done properly. Every time I have to go to Adyar from my place at Anna Nagar to get the work done. They want me give them the bike by 9 in the morning for which I have to start by atleast 8. Damn them!!! The next time I go there, I'm going to screw them just the way they've screwed my bike.

I'm left wondering what I have to do. I'm not sure whether I'm happy or whether I'm sad. I've had my moments as I said. I again have to thank Guru for making this a better day for me.

Cheers!!!
