Contact me with the link below to meet “Biggie,” a show-winner in the cruiser category at Superstition Harley Davidson 2021 BYO bike show. It’s clean and in good condition, modified with/ custom paint of the RE traditional logo on the tank repping Britain’s WWI Enfield .303 rifle.
Royal Enfield motorcycles are showing up in the US and it’s not a surprise as they are the world’s highest-selling volume motorcycle. Most people think mine is an old school Triumph; but it’s an India-made Bullet 500 Classic Enfield that came off the line in January 2017. I first rode a bullet 40 years ago in India and now you can take my Classic Bullet 500 for a spin. The bike is great fun, easy to handle, and sharp.
My last renter wrote, “Bike is in pristine condition.” The thump makes you feel like you’re on the original English-made 54 Bullet. If you are 6′ or taller you’ll feel cramped, but you can still do it. Custom paint with the Enfield traditional RE logo on the tank and the representation of the WWI Enfield .303 rifle; a design tying into the history of Royal Enfield as a munition’s provider in Redfield, England, pre-WWI, the number 5, a new seat, and mirror.
Late 70’s in New Delhi, I rode a bike like this India produced 54. It’s essentially the same frame I ride today.

Breath Notes

 

  • The practitioner is ATTENTIVE to breath while focused on the process of asana and quiet.
  • In movement, consciously linked to breath, we produce the rhythmic effect of life. It’s what humans have done for centuries; and therein lays yoga’s simple yet profound magic: breath in movement and rhythm.
  • When a yogi comes home to their breath-centric core they kiss the soul to receive their full inheritance.
  • At the center point, breath is the building of consciousness and through breath in heightened consciousness, jettisoning old scripts, the yogi constructs a personal story of renewal formed by inspiration.
  • A breath focus narrows the gap between body and mind so that when the yogi concentrates on the physical act of breathing, the mind comes into the here and now.
  • Breathing is both automatic and responsive to signals.
  • Anyone can relieve tension within the body by using breath.
  • Vinyasa is really about breath directed by asana.
  • The all-encompassing breath within (samana vayu) circulates from the solar plexus in the middle of the body and contributes to healthy metabolism and digestion.
  • Breath movement is secondary muscular movement.
  • Pranayama (breath management) is a “calm and lucid entrance into the very essence of life.” M. Eliade
  • When yoga teaches us to breathe with ease and move in awareness, and when we learn to arrive at a pose – and life – with equanimity, that memory is lodged as experience in the body. In this way, yoga’s therapeutic is embodied and forges a connection between the physical and non-physical. It works by calming the body to treat agitation driving the monkey mind, for while stress is perceived in the mind it is felt in the body.
