|January 2023
Right on schedule it's that time of the year where we set off for the 2022 India Bike Week
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.
