2. About Road Trip
This venture is an infant yet heady amalgam of travel and adventure that aims to redefine ‘Freedom’ in terms of multiplicity of cultures, languages, tourism, customs, traditions, religions, travel, food and much more with an individual distinctiveness of friendship. Perhaps, a headstrong thought that could be sieved out is that of diminishing borders of political atrocities in the age of globalization. A great way to articulate with the historical linkages, celebrate cultures and traditions across the borders and exemplify independence! Perhaps, a headstrong thought that could be sieved out is that of diminishing borders of political atrocities in the age of globalization.
Excited about the unfamiliar terrains yet to be explored, Director of this trip Mr. Nikhil Kashyap expressed his gratitude and said:
“This is a celebration that stays irreplaceable in history which also is a solemn reminder of sacrifice of martyrs and we, by this venture, intend to pay homage to them and creating a platform for everyone to know about the roads / culture / food / Music in our neighbouring countries. We are delighted to set this new bridge which will open a new umbrella of opportunities for the people across the country”
Nikhil Kashyap, a marketing consultant, motorcycle collector and a Rally driver added "What stays of utmost importance is that of befriending neighboring nations and seeking strength in unity. Freedom can make us live our dreams and so it does for a country. It’s an overwhelming event that makes it possible for me to live thoughtfully and adventurously at the same time when I do it with all my passion for travel and motorcycles” who also is one of the five including Bhanu Pratap singh / Car and Motorcycle Enthusiast, Harkirat Singh / pilot by the day and biker by the night, Falguni Jasani Head Corp Communications and Vikram Mehta / a super biker and a petrol head, Gp. captain Ram Ithikkat Retd..
This gang of nifty five might sound to hail from diverse platforms but what has been uniting them since more than a decade is the inordinate passion they share for bikes, adventure and roads. In order to explore they will be exploring, eating and delving in the cultures of the exotic destinations and stay connected with the enthusiasts through biker clubs in different countries and the loop of social media .
Patriotic fervor of this day brings together whole country despite of her embedded diversity; likewise it did across miles on the ‘roads’ with a going to be beckoning ‘ride’.
