Doc, from Poona

Post by Guest »

Hi guys,

I'm Dr. Vistasp Sethna, "Doc" to all my friends. I'm from Poona, a 34-y-o doctor working for the Serum Institute of India, married to Yasmeen (a bawi doc I met in college) and have 2 kids - Rayan 8 and Nikita 4.

I ride a Bullet 500 and absolutely dote on it. As a rookie here I will be quiet and learn before opening my mouth - UNLESS someone badmouths my bike - those who know me from other fora know what happens then! :lol: :twisted: I also drive a Baleno which I just got (1600 km old only!) - she's called Snowy (not Tintin's dog but short for Snow White!)

I recently (Dec 2004) completed a solo ride on Doppie (short for Doppelganger) around India - 8000+ kms across 14 states in 13 riding days. You can read a short log of it here:

and you can see the fotos here:

Like most bikers out there, I have known about this group for long but somehow never signed in for a number of reasons (RD-centricity being the obvious one :? ) - well, better late than never!

Cheers, Doc

arun if u love ur leg he should be the last doc to go to. he don't practise. i remember he checking my bp, took him around 10-15min whereas his wife (one who practises) checked it in a few sec :lol:

Hey guys! Thanks for the warm welcome :D

Lets just say the "Which bike do u hate the most" was the final push to someone teetering on the edge! :twisted:

All I can say is, different strokes for different folks. I never believe in generalizing or in cliches/stereotypes - take each bike/rider combo as an individual entity - before u shoot ur mouth off! :roll:

Cheers, Doc
