Retracing steps after 9 years

In December of 2008, Chetak (my trusty Bullet Electra) and I headed down south from Delhi towards the Konkan coast. Today, Sheetal and I headed out retracing the old route and re-living the Great Escape of 2008. Tonight in Amer. Tomorrow further south to Udaipur. Then Baroda, Bombay, Tarkarli, and finally reaching Chapora on Ganesh Chathurti. One of the great mountaineers of the 20th century once said that there can be no adventure without prospect of death. Not to go to those extremes! - but I feel I understand what he meant and I guess my version would read: "...there is no adventure without uncertainty..."
