Do I think I have contributed to the motorcycling community, however a
small way it may be?
I have posted all my rides for all to See. On my trip from Mumbai to Kanyakumari i filmed it all, and released 9 webasodes for more to see. Hoping that others would get inspired to ride.
How can I contribute more in the future to the motorcycling community?
I want to create a biking event for all bikers to meet. It must be in a beautiful place where we can all ride to, camp out for a weekend, and ride back to our lives. I have been planning this event for 2 years now. I plan on funding it through a book i am writing. I have been offered to write a book on my ride through South America, whatever proceeds i get from there, i plan on putting towards the biking event.

Pack your bag for an adventure. When your on an adventure, you become one with everything, the road, the place and your experience. Get on your bike, leave it all behind, and just go.
