Today, on our way to work in the morning, we spotted two
richly decorated auto rickshaw’s chasing their way towards Panjim city. In it,
were some Indians and foreigners, who seemed to be amused and enjoying the
ride! It was a wonderful sight to behold!
This reminded me of The Times Passion trail: Auto Rickshaw Trail to be held from January 31st to February 6th from Mumbai to Goa,
which I recently read about. But this seemed to be another auto rikshaw race….As
there seemed to be a number on the rickshaw: 82. I wished that I could be in
one of these rickshaws….
It is always fun to ride in an auto rickshaw. Nostalgic
memories flood past as I remember my childhood days. As kids, we used to ride
in an auto rickshaw from the train station to our relatives places, when we used
to visit them during our vacation. And the moment we used to sit in the
rickshaw, we would be amused and thrilled to take the joy ride. Though it used
to be bumpy, it was always fun! I am still childishly amused every time I sit
in a rickshaw…
On each of my visits to Mumbai (considerably often) I don’t miss
the opportunity to ride in an 'auto' (short term for an 'autorickshaw')!!
Here is a snap shot of the details listed about the Times Passion Auto Rickshaw Trail on their website. To register, please visit the website: http://timespassiontrails.com/index.php/off_beat/auto
