They say, the road can teach you anything that you arewilling to UNLEARN. ⁠Kshitij Saxena⁠ kicked off his unlearning with a 3500 km ride across South America as he brooded over hitting midlife on one hand and the life's injustices on the other. As Latin America's stunning landscapes, its serenity and the promise that is humanity conspired to offer moments of peace, balm and faith to his questful soul, Kshitij captured every moment for all of us to relive through a 34 part YouTube series called Midlife Miles. We wanted explore what fuels this tall, dark and hungry young man as he engages with life's asymmetries on the 104th episode of the Long Way Home.

What can one say about a timeless icon but that they lead by example when all else falter. Naanu, Chinni, Chinnappa, call him as you choose he will always be the reluctant legend that he truly is.

Noisy typewriters and loudspeakers blared running commentaries of bikers running hell for leather across the country. Sholavaram, Nandi hills, Barakpore, Pune, Juhu, Rajasthan, Ladakh all came alive birthing the dare devils of yore.

It’s international women’s day as we remain engulfed in a quiet riot of emotions in India today.

Motorcycling has always attracted the contrarian like a moth to the flame. Independent and sometimes revolutionary ideologues like Che Guevara have used it as a vehicle to test their idea on wheels. One would have to be blind to ignore that we too now live in challenged times where around the world democracy seems to be squeezed into an ever narrowing bandwidth where citizens are increasingly getting seduced with a self-righteous deep-rooted sense of inherited injustices with forceful narratives rendering even the media benign. We asked Gul Panag if it was the sense of apathy with the polity or was it youthful adrenaline that ever so mainlines our emotions growing up, that made Gul throw in her hat into the political ring? And then there's a bunch of questions about her marriage on wheels, the pilot in her heart and Magucho where she now also wearing the entreprenuer's hat.

We’ve always had Gul Panag on our guest wishlist; not because she’s been a top model, a Miss India, a famous film and TV actress; but for being an outdoorsy motor heady kind of person… and that despite her stardom. She’s a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, a pilot, a runner, a fitness buff, a dog lover, an entrepreneur, a conscious citizen and so much more as we’re going to learn over the next two milestones on the Long Way Home with Gul Panag. Let's begin with the Boyevaya Mashina Pekhotys. Whadoyouknow ?
