EVEN THOUGH THERE is no dearth of high-performance machines, it's not easy to truly let these machines loose. Be it the condition of roads, the lack of open spaces or even stringent road safety regulations, many such factors lead to such machines being largely kept on some form of a metaphorical leash. Fortunately, the Valley Run is one such avenue where motorcycles can be unleashed to their fullest and it's been going on for 12 editions.
AD 2024 was the 13th edition and this highoctane event isn't just limited to the drag racing community racing away at the Aambey Valley air strip that doubles as a drag strip for a weekend. It's also a festival of sorts where one can check out a number of modified motorcycles, witness a bunch of stunts being pulled off, and, of course, celebrate all things biking by interacting with fellow enthusiasts.
