    Event was too good. More than 100 bikers had participated. All kind of bikers and bikers were there in the event, be it dirt bikers, Enfield riders from Roadshakers, Posers, stunters, Superbikers.
    Following guys from Xbhp participated:
    Pune: Ritwik, Satya , Naren
    Mumbai: Darkknight, Ketan, Anirude
    (pardon me if i missed any one)
    Riders had to make maximum number of 8s in a given time of 2 minutes to qualify first round.
    In round 2, four riders has to do slow riding and 10 seconds was the penalty for touching the foot on the ground or crossing the lines. Slowest rider would qualify for round 3.
    Ritwik stumbled just before the finish line. Naren left the venue after round 1 itself.
    Total 20 riders, including Satya, Darkknight & Anirude, qualified for round 3.
    Third & final round was Slalom riding.
    As Sunny mentioned above, there was a tie among 4 guys. So the Pune's most passionate biker was selected by again slowriding. Underdog Piroj (on Karizma) beat hot favorite sardarji on thunderbird. You guys need to see this Roadshaker to believe him. He was simply playing with the Enfield. Truly unbelievable.
    All the finalists were presented Castrol gift hampers (engine oil bottles + tees).
    Judges for the event were MG, Sunny, Sunil & OF.
    You guys need to request Darkknight for the photos.

                    Salom riding ??

                    Is it like going from point A to point B juggling in between those castrol bottles, and take a U turn, and come back from B to A ??

                    Am i correct ??

                    And was there any elimination in the stage round as well ?? Where riders were asked to speak for a minute ??
                    There are Bikers
                    There are Super Bikers...

                    And Then there's
                    KRISS

                      Yes Kriss, the slalom is exactly as you described it.

                      Slalom was common for the final twenty. The fig of 8 and slow biking were elimination rounds.
                      All 20 finalists went on stage with a mike to speak their heart out. And they did.
