Today, after a long gap, I pulled out some old transparencies for scanning.
The 1994 Original Roadies 🙂
We had done a Pune-Cochin bike trip way back in April 1994 . Four guys ( Sandeep, Salil Shailesh and myself) on three bikes, a Rajdoot, a Yezdi and an Enfield Fury [ a Zundapp Kardan Sport 175 ( KS175) actually], on the Konkan coastal roads for eleven heavenly days. The trip was planned to coincide with the “Trichur Pooram“, the traditional mega Kerala Temple Festival which has a more than a few number of caparisoned elephants and only a few, hundred thousand people to watch the show 🙂
I still remember the bike silhouette pic. I shot that twisting back while riding pillion, helmet and all with the camera focussed at infinity. I had the “Pentax – ME Super” back then. A wonderful camera for sure.

Keeping with the theme of Kerala, I also scanned in a few slides of a temple that I do really like, the Ernakulam Shiva Temple. I happened to click a few frames duting the Temple festival in Dec 1999 enroute to my Diving holiday to Lakshadweep Islands.

During the temple festival the Deity of the Temple is brought home on an elephant and an offering is made to the God right at the house gates. Thats the two pics here. On the pic on the right is my maternal uncle making the offering with the temple elephant at my maternal home.
