“I have gone on a trip with Manish as part of his “India on Bike” project … We rode motorbikes all around South India for about three weeks – along the coast from Mumbai all the way down to Kanyakumari and then up to Hyderabad … It was my very first trip but it started my 8-year long love affair with this beautiful country. I could never stay away from it and kept coming back every year … The highlights of the trip, as I see it, were the beautiful old churches of Goa, lush green tea estates of Munnar, charming backwaters and fishermen’s nets of Kerala, the most breathtaking sunset at Kanyakumari, magnificent temple architecture of Rameshwaram, the quaint French parts of Pondicherry … Though the trip wasn’t a commercial one for Manish – it was more of a “ride with friends”, he organized everything in the most professional manner – the itinerary, travel times, hotels, even the food was delicious every single time! And he made sure we tasted all the local varieties available … He loves his country and knows it very well, and I am sure he will make you love it too!”
