Biking thrill for underprivileged children
SHILLONG, Nov. 20: Quoted from the Meghalaya Times
"Observing the International Children’s Rights Day in the city, Meghalaya xBhp sports and Adventure Club (MXSAC), Shillong in collaboration with Impulse NGO Network organized a thrilling biking show for under-privileged children of the city here on Saturday. About 25 children from Sishu Siksha Ghar, Cantonment Area, were present to witness the breath-taking stunts performed by the MXSAC with FBz members at the Don Bosco Technical School. The underprivileged children invited are daily wage labourers from the slums of Shillong. Of all the children that came, most work as rag collectors, some as child labourers while others are employed in similar daily wage jobs. Members of MXSAC, after performing all of their exhilarating stunts like wheelies, stoppies, burnouts among other stunts, said that they had been looking forward to holding such kind of a programme for the children. The club members also distributed stationary gifts among the children that they had bought with their limited funds that they raised from the members. The initiative was taken up by the club as they were aware that there are many children who cannot even accord enough money for schooling. The club has also been trying to tie-up with various NGOs to extensively promote road safety and safe riding practices to other bikers in the city." Performers: Naylin, Laxman, Raul, Raj, Karan, Jdan, Owangdi, Paomin, Brian, Banti and Justin on the BMX. This was the first time a Stunt Show was locally organised for the underpriviledge Children of Shillong and I do hope that in the near future we can take up more social events. We are very much thankful to: 1. Bah John and the Lachumeire Authorities for permitting us to practice and prepare for the event. We are very much grateful. 2. Impulse NGO for the support and gathering the Children from various locations: keep up the good work, God Bless more philantrophists! 3. Fr. Rector of Don Bosco Technical School for the ground: For your patience and kindness. Your advice and suggestions appreciated. 4. FreakyBykerz for collaborating: theres a lot to learn and improve the team spirit. 5. Last but NEVER the least, our very own xBhp team from Shillong for their unending support, cooperation and team spirit! Cheers! Ride Safe! ... and here are the pics! (Photographs >> by Ben & Pinku  )Xbhp with the kids! Gladdy distributing the gifts to the kids Even our youngest stunter needs some stationery for his schooling. Those smiles... Justin with his burnout some special effects, photoshop work! Oh yeah! thats a wheelie bar on the BMX! Flamingo by Owangdi (Awesome shot by Ben  )My favourite so far More Pics coming soon on Mod's approval

Nice initiative..
stunters are never considered of any use to society, but you guys proved everyone wrong.. I am refering this page to everyone who says that stunters are irresponsible... This is a wonderfull example of the warmth we have for making our society a better place... Helmets off to you guys... Keep up the good work...

. As Sunny had once said during his visit to Shillong that xBhp should have a "Winter Session Office" in Meghalaya. We already have a temporary office for the operation!And now the remaining pics of the event:
Maddie, Hru and Gladdy, always eveready for the noble cause. Naylin rocking all the way FreakyBykerz and their kids Just playing around with Justin on the circle suicide burnout. thats overcrowded burnout...lol Poppers! On their own mixture Naylin with his 90degree burnout Raul with the rolling burntout Crowds- photoshop touch Raj with his Side scraping: after photoshop touch Laxman and the pillon with the poppers! Don Bosco Technical School at the background. I love the photosho finishing here. It gives the looks of the 60s Mani and Karan combo Brian popping a wheelie Paomin on his 3rd gear wheelie Justin popping a wheelie on the BMX fitted with a wheelie bar. I guess thats the first of its kind in a BMX So thats it for the pics from my posting. Thanks Ben and Pinku for the collections
