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.
