On Which Day is Sadar Bazaar Market in Agra Closed?

• • Agra, Uttar Pradesh

The plan was to visit the very famous Agra Chaat House (Pride of Agra) situated at Chaat Gali, Sadar Bazaar market in Agra to have a mouth-watering/delicious chaat but was disappointed because the market was closed on Tuesday.

Timings: 1:30 pm to 10:30 pm

Anyway, new information was found while loitering around Sadar Bazaar i.e., Mama Chicken Mama Franky House situated at the Shopping Arcade in Sadar Bazar.

Mama Chicken Mama Franky House is open on Tuesdays from 12 noon till late at night hours.

As the space within my stomach was not that encouraging to have chicken thus I decided to visit Sadar Bazaar again in the coming days.

How much is the Laundry Cost in Agra?

• • Agra, Uttar Pradesh

I enquired with goSTOPS (Agra) employees about laundry services & laundry costs in Agra and they guided me towards a laundry service situated approx. 50 meters. Maybe goSTOPS in Agra is not having an in-house laundry service or is non-functional.

I walk and met Rajkumar (0-63951 00622) – the washerman.

Rajkumar runs a makeshift shop of various items (left side) and he also runs a laundry opposite it.

Upon query about the laundry cost, he said – 20 rupees per cloth without ironing. And if you wish your clothes to be ironed then Rs. 15 extra for a pair.

I gave him 3 clothes (Rs. 60) for washing only and he returned the clothes neatly washed and folded the next day morning.

Note: There are two laundry services close to goSTOPS. Rajkumar laundry services is a little further from the other laundry.

Prepaid Auto Fare: Agra Cantt Railway Station to goSTOPS (Taj Nagari)

• • Agra, Uttar Pradesh

On 23rd August 2022, I reached Agra Cantt Railway Station via BAREILLY EXP (14313) at 6:30 am and my search for prepaid auto begins.

Within the Agra Cantt Railway Station area (near the taxi stand), I found a prepaid auto booth. Though the prepaid auto booth was closed due to water logging, a police person was present nearby busy making prepaid slips for autos.

An auto wala approached me with a query about where I wished to go.

I replied – Taj Nagari, R.K. Puram (approx. 7 km from Agra Cantt Railway Station).

He requested to hire his auto as he will approach police personnel to make a prepaid slip for the journey.

I agreed.

We both approached the police person who made a prepaid slip for Rs. 150 with no extra charges for luggage.

Thanks to U.P. Govt. & Agra administration for a prepaid booth for auto/taxi within railway station area – I have to say.

I suggest: Each tourist place in India should have a prepaid auto/taxi mandatory. It will help tourists a lot.

Which is The Best Royal Enfield Service Centre in Rishikesh?

• • Tehri Garhwal, Uttarakhand • Tags:

As per my experience – Lucky Motors & Friends Enfield House is the best Royal Enfield service/repair center in Rishikesh.

I have been to many Royal Enfield service centers (authorized/non-authorized) across India, Rishikesh is one of the locations where I found three guys very helpful and i.e., Lucky, Pramod and Vicky. The trio – Lucky, Pramod, and Vicky are the guys whom I can fully trust for my Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350cc repair or service.

The best about these guys is that since my first visit 10 years back till date I stick with them for my motorbike for any repair or service in Rishikesh. Their work was always very good with always the right advice and for any work to be outsourced (seat-cover) they will always share the best places. I personally find Pramod (17 years of experience) – The mechanic very knowledgeable.

Lucky Motors is located at Kailash Gate, Opp. Omkarananda School, Muni Ki Reti, Rishikesh, Uttarakhand.

Friends Enfield House (25 years old) is located at Koyal Ghati, Akhand Ashram, Rishikesh, Uttarakhand.

I would recommend Lucky Motors/Friends Enfield House to get your RE motorbike serviced especially if you’re a true hardcore RE lover.

Here I would love to tell you that Lucky (0-98372 43668) and Vicky (0-98378 50349) are brothers who learned Royal Enfield motorbike repair/service from his father (popularly known as Billa) who is currently 65 years old having 45 years of RE repair/service experience.

Friends Enfield House is no doubt, the best bike service/repair workshop in Rishikesh started by Mr. Billa ages ago now managed by Vicky.

Vicky and Lucky both are having 20+ years of experience in Royal Enfield motorbike repair/service.

The oldest Royal Enfield motorbike serviced by Vicky is from the year 1962.

Lucky also conduct Ladakh tour. He also participated in ‘Raid De Himalaya’ contest and won it.

10 years back I remember my Royal Enfield Thunderbird 350cc was having a wobble issue. I consult Vicky and he advised me to change the swing arm bush and to date, after that, I never faced a wobble issue.

The trio says – We at Rishikesh request you to let the Friends Enfield House/Lucky Motors serve you. We provide branded Royal Enfield spare parts. No compromise in quality.

Yes, I agree – said I.
