Mia rode her bike on NH160, away from the Shirur city. Instead of going towards Pune she took a different direction. She wanted to ride until she relaxed and she didn’t want to end up reaching Pune. Next city on this route was 60 km away and it wasn’t as busy or crowded as Pune city. She increased the speed and enjoyed the resistance of wind that came with high speed bike riding. Her brain devoid of all thoughts , her concentration on riding and her eyes on the road calmed her down. She had soon left the entire traffic behind and was riding alone. After crossing the nearest city, she took her bike into a lay-by to idle while she sat alone on the bike completely thoughtless. This was like meditation for her. The deserted lay-by was quiet and was under the cover of huge trees making it peace
