In my garage you'll find (admittedly among a rather unsightly long since forgotten piles of sundry items): one truck, small in stature, but large in heart; one motorcycle, poor in starting capacity, but rich in non-running memories; and finally one cool 4 wheeler, that needs neither my silly description nor your having to strain at considering how much fun it is. An odd little something has come to define my relationship with these three machines. Although the greatest amount of affection goes towards the ATV and is the vehicle that driven the hardest, a level just slightly above "none at all" has gone into the consideration towards its tires. This oddity is further complicated by my understanding...

Technology is a stupid thing. It makes you spend, stupidly, and before you can even gaze at your gizmo with pride, it is already outdated. A few months back I had splurged (the devil called the impulsive shopper inside me made me to) on a rather expensive cellphone. Not only was it expensive but it also was quite useless. The dimwitted techno-pedestrian in me could never use half of the mobile's gazillion cutting edge features. Add to that, all the gizmos made the mobile useless. A careless drop on a well-polished granite floor cost me INR 5000 for a cracked LCD screen, more than the cost of many mobile phones in the market. And now to add insult to the cost, the company's service centre has...

When genius and futurist John Naisbitt put out Megatrends in 1982 calling our future the "information age" even he could not have predicted the amount and value of information we would inhabit by the turn of the century. With all forms of media, security cameras cell phones recording our every move there is more news and not-really-news than we can assimilate in a day. News magazines have become a helpful and needed conglomeration of information to help us sort out fact from fiction and keep us up on the need to know we encounter. Although they all relate news, each of our three major news magazines offers a different slant on the events of our times. Politics Stage Left or Right For political...

It's not so long ago when everybody wants to own a hybrid vehicle because of its claimed benefits like better fuel economy and lower emission of harmful gases. But surprisingly the new results of the J.D. Power survey reveal that most car owners now prefer diesel cars over hybrids. Sales of hybrids are observed to be declining reaching an overall drop in sales by almost 7 percent however for buyers with age ranging from 16 to 25 the drop is much higher at 13 percent. With the turn of events it seems like the whole point of shifting to using hybrid vehicles seems to be fading without us noticing it. This is quite sad especially for the environment which is the main reason why buying hybrid vehicles...

Hero Honda Achiever and the Company's Future

I have recently been riding around on the Hero Honda Achiever, as part of my fun-job of an automotive writer for Hindustan Times. The Achiever is a good bike but is caught in the quicksand of mediocrity. It would have been a great bike about a year back but now with the Pulsar DTSFi just around the corner and the Honda Unicorn firmly established, the Achiever is nothing but a plug, a plug for the premium segment hole left in the Hero Honda boat, rocked by falling sales of the once-wonderful but now Triassic CBZ. Sure, the styling is good but it looks done half-heartedly. The bike lacks the edginess of the Apache, the hormonic imbalance of the Unicorn and the swoopiness of the Pulsar. The engine is...

Motorcycle and relay can take the pressure off the electrical system on your motorcycle. Motorcycles have a reputation for having very weak electrical systems, but one way to help your motorcycle's electrical system work better is to put on motorcycle and relay units.

Motorcycle and relay will take the pressure off your electrical system and allow the right amount of electrical power to go to the lights. When you add a motorcycle and relay, you should notice a...

There are several types of safaris. These include Game drives, Canoe Safaris, Horse back safaris, Elephant safaris and walking safaris. The type of safari you take depends on your preference and your location. Canoe safaris for example are not that popular in east Africa mainly Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda but there are quite popular in other parts of Africa including Southern Africa. By far the most exciting way to see wildlife is either on a vehicle which may be a lodge jeep or a tour van or by Walking Safaris. The great thing about walking safaris is that you get to see much more and any big animals you do see are likely to provide heart-stopping moments as they emerge suddenly from the bush. You...
