Milestones
"The bike doesn't get you to the place. It gets you to the version of yourself that notices the place."
Ride notes — Ladakh 2024
From the journal
Stories worth the read — full route breakdowns, what the weather actually did, and the frames that made the trip.
Long · 7 days Six roaring Ducatis, seven days, and a relentless pursuit of the Western Ghats' most spectacular waterfalls during the monsoon.
Long · 8 days "The Uncivilized 9," a group of college friends now older and riding bigger "toys," reunited for an ambitious motorcycle loop from Pune through Gujarat.
Long · 12 days My first international biking tour. We transported our bikes to Siliguri and then rode through the gorgeous country of Bhutan. The people, the calmness, the terrain, the roads, the air, every single thing about this country was stunning.

Sold 2016 My first superbike, and the shortest ownership of the four. It didn't need longer.
Current A much-needed step up in capacity and technology — and the bike that turned a hobby into how I spend my life.
Current The Z could cover distance. It just made you feel every kilometre of it.
Stills
Photographs that didn't belong to any one ride. Landscapes, machines, strangers, roadside light.
About
I'm Leo — product manager by weekday, rider and photographer by every other available hour. My first bike came in 2006, but the real journey started in 2015 on a Ninja 300. It began as a way to get my head out of work. It didn't stay that way.
Somewhere in those first few years the point stopped being the riding and became the places — the roads nobody photographs, the towns you only find because you took the wrong turn. Twenty years on, the bikes in the garage let me chase that most weekends. I'm hoping it never wears off.
This site is the long version of what gets compressed into a thirty-second reel. Full routes, honest weather, what broke, what it cost, and the photographs that made the detour worth it.
