I had a whale of relief after being exposed to such vibrance that could never be there if we slept out our Saturday night.

I miss Delhi, for it was easy to ride to the hills from the capital, however, I guess I\u2019m given some options here as well. Thanks to all the creatures who accompanied me for the ride, I hope I turned each &amp; every one of you into sane wanderers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wanderer<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/nandi-hills-bike-trip-21.jpg\" data-rel=\"penci-gallery-image-content\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-29781 size-full\" title=\"rahul arora\" src=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/nandi-hills-bike-trip-21.jpg\" alt=\"rahul arora\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/nandi-hills-bike-trip-21.jpg 480w, https:\/\/vargiskhan.com\/log\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/nandi-hills-bike-trip-21-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nature is a gift &amp; we must preserve it.
