Festive Riding

THE INDIA BIKE WEEK (IBW) IS an annual event that brings together motorcycle enthusiasts from across India and the world. This year the event was back in Goa, the immensely popular tourist destination known for its beautiful beaches and vibrant nightlife. The event featured various activities and attractions.

One of the highlights of this year's IBW was the international motorcycle rally, which saw riders from all over the world come together to participate in a gruelling cross-country race. The rally took riders through some of India's most scenic and challenging routes, providing a true test of their endurance and riding skills.

After a hiatus due to the pandemic, this year's special attractions included five distinct tracks, Wheelie Training, Biker's Mart (Indoor and Outdoor Expo), Big Trip sessions, Ladakh Tent, the Club Village, Jameson Connect Howling Dog Bar, and others. IBW 2022 provided some surreal experiences. An enthralling adventure voyage that began with a ride to Goa and culminated in a number of thrilling activities, starting with the Ride to IBW.

In addition to the rally, the event also features a number of other exciting activities, including stunt shows, live music performances, and exhibitions of the latest bikes and accessories. The stunt shows, in particular, are a major attraction at the IBW, with professional stunt riders performing a range of death-defying feats on their motorcycles. This time around the shows had some great opportunities for visitors to see the latest bikes in action and witness the incredible skill and bravery of the riders.

Hero Mavrick 440

SINCE IT CAME INTO my clutches, I have been guarding the Mavrick 440's keys rather jealously. I loathe to even think of returning it, though that is inevitable some time in the future.

It is Good to be different

When it comes to choosing a Husqvarna, you are spoilt for choice these days thanks to the KTM-owned manufacturer's habit of providing not just one but two variants of each new model. Should you opt for a single-cylinder 125 or 401 or this, the all-new twin-cylinder 801, you get a brace of options: Vitpilen or Svartpilen. Essentially the same bike but in different clothes and with a subtly different attitude to life. It is a proven recipe that has served Husqvarna well for the last 10 years

Ticks All the Boxes

It is probably not too contentious to say that Triumph, the “new” Triumph, the one that re-invented the marque in 1983 and grew into one of British engineering’s great modern success stories, do retros rather well. With a large back catalogue of iconic “old” Triumphs to reinvent, the Hinckley factory has made a habit of plucking some of the most evocative model names from the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s, carefully updating their styling without offending the nostalgia glands, injecting very modern performance and road manners, and then watching them sail out of showrooms. But few, we suggest, have been done as well as this
