“We are committed to a cause which is initiated by our Prime Minister Narendra Modi “Beti Bachao – Beti Padhao”. We have prepared banners across Social media and are promoting this event. Currently, the post of this event has been viewed by 10,000 people on Facebook. We gain good reach through Royal Enfield Owners ‘Facebook Page’, where we have 25,000 members. We have taken complete permissions from Traffic Police in Mumbai for the ride and route,” explained Mayank Bhel, the founder of the team.

The group currently has 250 members, starting from January last year, and 100 active members that include two generations’ bikers and few female riders as well.

“Our group has not only been associated with an old age home called Kamladham Ashram (Ambernath), but also have supported blood donation camps and have done road shows and done rides into rural areas. We celebrate festivals with them, as they cannot enjoy due to financial problems. We have recently conducted a road safety ride, along with Mumbai Police, which involved Bollywood celebrities, to spread the message of road safety by wearing helmets.

Our Riding Club’s fraternity contributed and gave 1,000 helmets to Mumbai Police,” explained Aadil Mithaiwala, a core committee member.
