Riding has always had a purpose.
My first ride, Trivandrum to Kasaragod was to touch Kerala's northern and southern tip.
This time, I’m tracing history itself: entering the Sangottai Gap, exiting the Palakkad Gap - born from India’s split with Madagascar.
So far:
🏗️ Punal Suspension Bridge (1871)
🌉 13-Arch Bridge (1904)
🏞️ Tenkasi’s charm
🏺 Keeladi, rewriting Indus Valley migration theory.

“But how did you know which menu it was?”
“I just click everything”
“But then you were able to find the correct thing in the drop-down”
“I just click everything”
“How did you learn the new system so fast?”
“I just click everything”

One thing I appreciate about Mastodon is that if I slip into a bad habit of scrolling through the feed too much in one day, I start seeing old posts that I've already seen, and then I realize that I'm doing a bad habit, and that helps me stop checking the site too often.
On other platforms they would do anything to prevent that moment of self-reflection from occurring.
