The Highway, the beaches and the black cow

It all began at DJ's desk on Friday

It was Friday. There is certainly a thing about Fridays. Black, gray and occasionally purple...

I was walking down the Auto lane (the lane between the DCX team cubicles) when I saw DJ putting markers on something which looked like a map. Out of sheer curiosity I halted and started looking. Was it chance? Coincidence? Destiny? He turned around and asked me , "Hey dude want to go to Pondicherry? Biking?". I was a bit surprised but being inclined to most things on the edge ... I said "Why not?"

And it began.

Next thing I know was that DJ quickly finished putting the markers on the map, occasionally looking at me and pointing out roads running across mountainous terrains. "Dude this is our route", he smiled, giggled, laughed! I just smiled!

Prashant was caught strolling by us and immediately succumbed to the adventurous New Year celebration offer!! Next was Rishu. Anuj was called off from his manager's desk. Shanky was rather expilicitly 'persuaded'. Kshitij was so bloody enthusiastic at the mention of the plan - he was a part of it before I could ask - "So are you coming?".

Amit joined in without much of his say in it...

We were walking around the office - like officials looking for mercenaries! We found no more! So the cab was called and the bikes made ready...

The highway called and oblivious to the events hidden in the folds of destiny and future ... We set out that night ... Friday December 30, 2005
