Why this trip
Because we get it.
Not a science class. A hands on art session with a calm head as a bonus. Rock balancing feels like play, looks like art, and works like a mini meditation. With a few simple cues and steady breathing, you will be surprised how much your hands can do. Keep at it and you will notice you can balance more than stones. Pace, patience, plans. It all gets steadier.

Meet Your Ride Leader
Led by a legend on two wheels.
Rahul Koka Rao
Retired Air Force Officer.
72 years young.
Still rides harder than most 25-year-olds.
This ride isn’t being led by a random influencer with a GoPro. It’s being led by a man who’s chased storms in the sky, and now chooses winding roads and sunrise chai. Rahul sir brings decades of discipline, adventure, and real stories to every ride. He’s not here to impress. He’s here to guide, support, and maybe even humble you with a better playlist.
“Every ride has a story.
But the ones you ride with strangers?
That’s where the real magic begins.”
– Rahul Koka Rao

Why Ride With Us?
Because we get it.
The nerves. The doubt. The “what if I’m the only newbie?”
That’s why this ride is built for beginners. With support cars, women marshals, ride clinics, and a no-bro-code energy.
We ride slow, stop often, and celebrate every “first.”
A lot of people say yes. The breathing cues and focus make it feel like a moving meditation. No big rules. Just attention and a steady hand
Good. That is part of the practice. With breath and a few tweaks it will hold. When it does, it feels great
No. You need patience more than power. The stones do the work once you find the spot
Yes. Start with small stones in a tray. Five minutes a day is enough to keep the skill warm
Yes. Most people do and leave with friends
Spotty in patches. Better at the property and cafés
Ready to Balance?
Spots are limited and filling faster than chai at a dhaba.
