It perhaps all started with the cave paintings. A canvas perhaps of one’s identity. The most prized portrayal of one’s achievements. As time went by the expression found its place as the mantel piece, or the framed photo with a celeb, the Hussain in the living room, but the Yamaha RX 100 in your bedroom? That is our guest, the enigmatic Parakram Hazarika! They say a bird in hand is worth two in bush but this man who has a weakness for the momo suffers a FOMO with his RX in bed and Jajabor and Enajori his go to town rides, in the basement. This is part two of the intriguing story from the exciting life of Parakram Hazarika. A romantic, a dog piper, a dogged foodie, a momo devourer, a PR mercenary with a marketing battle, a traveler, a biker a beardo and thank God another weirdo. Also featuring Col. Manoj Keshwar on #MyWay from #Zanskar. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bikerradiorodcast/message

56 Days, 17000 kms, 4 girls, 6 countries across #India, #Bangladesh, #Myanmar, #Laos #Thailand and #Cambodia. Jai Bharthi leads  from the front and that is a brutal sport as it takes a combination of thinking on our feet and calculated belligerence to make headway. There of course is always a price to pay and the scars you carry are for life but the stories your have can tell tales; some about you, some about the road but every one of them a valuable learning experience. Courtesy of Telangana Tourism, Incredible India,  Bajaj Dominar, the good offices of the Dir. General Tourism and a friendly member of parliament, the Jai Bharathi, Piya Bahadur, Shanthi Susan and Shilpa Balakrishnan quartet rode into the history books making themselves and the Bikernis proud. Jai Bharathi spoke with us in candid detail helping us sequence this challenging and on occasion gruesome tale. On episode 72, JB shares her story of her Road to Mekong…over a cup of tea on the Long Way Home. #UNESCO #GOUNESCO #MOWO #architect #design #travel #motorcycle #bikerni #IFRD #RoadToMekong #TelanganaTourism #IncredibleIndia #BajajDominar --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bikerradiorodcast/message

BRR Ep 72 Jai Bharathi part II

Self-actualisation is a hunger, un-famished, self- fueled in perpetuity powering the wheels of a spirit called Jai Bharathi. The name says it all. Inspired by ‘Udaan’ a TV show hosted by #KiranBedi, that showcased the unprecedented achievements of less than ordinary people to positions of power and acclaim, this girl from #Hyderabad has made women’s empowerment her life’s #MOWO. MOving WOmen is a foundation that empowers women with mobility through riding skills with the aim to make them economically independent thus creating a cultural new normal!

Biker Radio Rodcast  embarks on its 66th episode of the Long Way Home featuring an iconic café that has become a sanctuary for DIYers but is essentially an overgrown man cave that doubles up as a garage, a tattoo parlour, a rescue home for pets, a kitchen for the hungry, and a hangout for motorheads as country Midwest meets the dhaba slam bang in a meteoric flash over the Aravalis. A must do in Delhi’s NCR, the Throttle Shrottle Moto Café run by its maverick founder Saurav Priyadarshi is India’s fastest growing moto café brand with Gurgaon, Kolkata and Krabi already done. While the team celebrates their latest inclusion with The Leopard Trail South of Gurgaon, they are burning the midnight oil to launch Dehradun, Manali and Goa before you can say Throttle Shrottle Moto Café. Mucho gracias to Joshua John for an blinding #Soundboard and Vikram Chaudhary for a geologically spectacular #MyWay about the #Aravalis the #oldestmountain range in the world. To think that Saurav the restaurateur, entrepreneur, designer and dog whisperer never ever intended Throttle Shrottle to be a café… well think about that… Bon Appetite. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bikerradiorodcast/message

BRR Ep 66 Saurav Priyadarshi of Throttle Shrottle Moto Cafe

The vision of foreigners travelling around India on vintage Royal Enfield rentals from Karol Bagh is a story that has intrigued us for many reasons. Until then, most Indians took a train or a bus and the better heeled took a car or a van to go on a vacation because the motorcycle was considered unreliable perhaps even unfit for travel. Just like the Hippie movement of the early 70’s, India witnessed the rise of yet another subculture, this time of foreign tourists, back packers, Israeli army conscripts, free individual travelers and even groups from every continent who took our vintage workhorses across the length, breadth and also heights of the Indian subcontinent. India woke up to the 'Goras' on Dug Dugs. This popularized the category and fueled a cultural transition among the youth who then revolutionized the idea and thus was born motorcycling touring as a popular category that we know it as today. The man, who spotted the opportunity, with his army of mechanics, dispatch riders and plenty of elbow grease, created the concept of adventure motorcycling in India. A maverick entrepreneur, a devout Sikh, a friend, a foodie, a rider, an innovator, a believer, a rock you can lean on and a humanitarian with a heart of gold; please welcome the Maharaja of Adventure Touring on motorcycles in India, and the creator of motorcycle rentals, the pied piper of Naiwala in Delhi’s Karol Bagh, Inder Mohan Rana or as most of the world popularly knows him, we give you Lalli Singh. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bikerradiorodcast/message

Episode 65: BRR Ep 65 Lalli Singh on the Long Way Home

The Motozeil Experience was a motorcycling utopia unheard of in India. A motorcycling experience zone which was a combination of an international motorcycle accessories store, a rental, an touring company, a restaurant, a brewery, a tattoo shop and a builder’s workshop spread across over 20000 square feet on the Golf Course Extension road in Gurgaon. And it was the figment of imagination of a dreamer who went from designing accessories and apparel for Royal Enfield to becoming an entrepreneur with a fearless ambition and one who was willing to challenge the odds.

His family has adopted India’s destitute children, given them a home and educated them at the Maxton Strong established Good Shepard Agricultural Mission at their farm in Banbasa, Uttarakhand bordering Nepal.
