Just got news that Sumanta happily riding his RED ATV in Tripura. It was nice that he sent me the photographs taken in his camera while he was here to collect his dream machine. In the above photo, I am explaining the riding and maintenance techniques to Sumanta.
Yesterday evening Mr Sumanta Debbarma took a ATV and hopped into a train to Tripura. Yes Mr Sumanta living on other side of Bangla Desh came all the way to collect one ATV and I think this is farthest distance my ATV will go. I wish many happy days of ATV riding to him.
So there are two [BLUE and GREEN] complete ATVs with me and one Yellow machine that has some minor components missing. Interested people need not mail me regarding their availability as I will be posting update immediately after deliveries.
My blog gets plenty of hits from around the country. Many people send mail to enquire about availability and import guidance. I have no way to determine their seriousness, so cannot separate grain from chaff with email communication There are people who have approach me & create impression that they are hopping on plane on next day to parachute on my farm just to collect a ATV. One Mr Amaan from Mumbai just did that last week.
Having myself flown powered hang glider solo, aka microlight aircraft - and having a bad crash later on, I am not dazzled by their flying in plans. But I have to be courteous. My poor health makes this difficult. I keep my routine work pending to accommodate them. Suddenly communication gets cold and they don’t even inform me of changed circumstances.
Riding ATV mean you have to unlearn a crucial movement that we get used to during riding two wheelers. We should never lift our leg out of footrests. Even if we are going to be toppled, our legs should continue to be on footrest to avoid more injury. I was busy teaching all these fine points of riding and maintenance and so neglected taking photographs while he was with us.
