One sticker seen somewhere defines what could have happened. The owner is no more.

15 yrs old daughter pedalled 1200 kms over 7 days from Gurugram to Darbhanga, carrying her injured and jobless father as the pillion rider

Jyoti Kumari is a 15 year old girl from Bihar who carried her wounded father from GURUGRAM (Gurgaon) to their home village in DARBANGHA district (Bihar) on her bicycle covering 1200 kms over 7 days during the lockdown in May 2020.

Kicked out by his employer during the lockdown, the daughter Jyoti pedalled back home with her father riding pillion. After this crazy feat of endurance and love the Cycling Federation of India, an academy, under the aegis of Sports Authority of India, is looking into the possibility of training her to  be a world-class cyclist.

The young girl deserves the 'carrot' in 'Carrot N Stick'.

Indian Roadie Drive for Food to Sadar Bazar, Gurgaon

How did Koninica De finish her lunch at 200 INR at Sadar Bazaar, Gurgaon

She has realized that Sadar Bazaar Gurgaon is so underrated in terms of food. Sadar Bazaar has quite a few hidden gems one should explore, most of which are food joints. Three generations of Gurgaon peeps have been served by some of best of them who have stood the test of time.


The following are the unmissable food joints:

1. Gandhiji Pakodewala - A family business in its third generation, this pakora shop is one to impress. They serve piping hot chai and pakoras all day, in addition to biskut, rusk, kachoris, samosas, and chow mein. They serve Kamal kakdi (lotus stem) pakoda which was unavailable, I simply stuck to the Mirchi Ka pakoda which coated around 10 INR.

2. Panditji ka Dhaba - If you’re on the lookout for (vegetarian) home-cooked food made in pure desi ghee, Pandit Ji Ka Dhaba is the place to be. Their specialty is Chulhe Ki Roti – a thali with sabji, dal, and two rotis that will cost you next to nothing. But I simply gorged onto their Paneer Amritsari Naan and half Mushroom Masala. Coated me 120 INR.

3. Mansingh Chole Kulche - What's North India without Chole Kulche? And that when served with radish ,tomato and Mirchi achaar,tastes heavenly. The perfect way to end your main course. The Masala Kulcha was even more supple and tasty. The Masala Kulcha coated with ounces of Desi Ghee costed 40 INR along with the Chole!

4. Arjan Singh and Sons (Sardar Jalebi wala) -
How to spot it: an impatient crowd, a Sikh man at the counter, and the irresistible smell of fresh jalebis. Having operated out of the same shop for the last 68 years, they’ve sort of made a name for themselves. I tried 100 gm of sweet crispy jalebi which coated 20 INR.

5. Chaurasia Special Chai - This was indeed a major find when walking down the alleys, the thick milky kesariya chai just at 10 INR made every sip of it worth it.

So here goes my full course meal plan at 200 INR. Make a trip to Sadar Bazaar right away to satisfy those street food pangs. When in Gurgaon, try Sadar Bazaar!
Cheers!

Maruti Gypsy Ambulance at Sissu, HP spotted again after 3 years

This is so Unbelievable!
Indian Roadie, Arjun Uberoi drove to Ladakh on a Ford Ecosport in August 2014.
At Sissu, he noticed this Maruti Gypsy ambulance with registration number HP-42-0083.



Arjun Uberoi had slept for a night inside this very ambulance during his Gurgaon - Ladakh bike trip with Motohawks India way back in August 2011.
Arjun recalls that on 17th August 2011 he started from Upshi and reached Sissu at 20:00 hrs and could not find a place to stay. He parked his bike, tried opening the Ambulance door and by chance it was open. Without blinking an eyelid he got inside and slept off.
