Mangalore City Motorcycle Clubs and India's xBhp Road Trip United Meet

Hello everyone! Namaste!

Greetings from Mangalore, India.

I am a Motorcycle enthusiast and have been pretty much active in the Motorcycling Community in Mangalore. Together with @speedracer and Akshay, The 3 of us started a Motorcycling group called @revlimiterz to promote Mangalore Motorcycling and safe riding, and so we organized various Motorcycling events and motorcycling activities in and around Mangalore City.

xBhp is one of India's top Motorcycling Magazine and community and we are active members from the motorcycling community. We were contacted by xBhp team for the #roadtripunited meet in Mangalore City.

About xBhp #RoadTripUnited:
An 8 member team of xBhp is embarking on a 9000 kms roadtrip on 4 exotic motorcycles, including 2 Suzuki Motorcycle India Hayabusas & two cruisers from Indian Motorcycle India, powered by Castrol Biking & Michelin and promoted on Radio by Red FM. The ride started on December 16, 2017 from Delhi and will end on January 31, 2018 after being on the road for 45 days. The aim of this roadtrip was to meet different motorcycling groups and individual bikers who are trying to put India on the world motorcycling map.

The xBhp #RoadTripUnited visit to Mangalore City:
Mangalore was one of the destination for the xBhp #RoadtripUnited meet. Few weeks ago, I got in touch with Senior xBhp Content Developer and Manager @sunil.gupta, who is also part of the Steemit Community. Over the phone call we discussed the time and venue for the meet and it was scheduled for January 15th 2018 at 8pm at Local famous Hotel called as BMS. Hotel BMS is famous for its dedicated Vegetarian restaurant and the only Vegetarian restaurant in town which serves alcohol (No drinking and driving/riding :p).

I immediately got in touch with few active xBhp members from Mangalore. Dr. Brijesh Khandige and Shawn Fernandez, who are few of the oldest active and seniors xBhp members from Mangalore. Our very own @firepower was also one of the founding members of Mangalore xBhp community. I guess he missed the meet due to his travel schedules.

On January 15th, we were able to gather around 30 bikers from our hometown Mangalore from various Motorcycling clubs.
After patiently waiting for the xBhp team, who had a slight delay for the meetup. The whole biking fraternity were glad to finally meet the xBhp #Roadtripunited team in Mangalore.
