The Triumph Bonneville Bobber is a perfect motorcycle for highway duties,
The Bobber feels like a proper low-rider of motorcycles and the bike I was riding had an aftermarket exhaust. Not too loud but kept the ride engaging and did turn a few heads when I did a revbomb. We reached Lonavala and re-grouped at Kamat’s but in between, I took a small detour to find one of the best locations next to Khandala Ghat. Whilst taking a detour one of the Triumph riders joined us and he was on his Triumph Street Scrambler, the only one I saw in our Mumbai group. Basically, the Scrambler is a Bonneville that can do Tiger duties without breaking a sweat. We reached our destination and the arrangements done by Triumph were commendable. Breakfast for all the riders, technical team and backup support throughout the whole ride.
I noticed by the end that we had a backup ambulance too. At our destination, we had our normal ritual – salute to our Indian flag and everyone sung the national anthem. A few representatives from the Smile foundation did share the insights about the #SheCanFly campaign and Triumph India and that they are the charity partners. Also, all the donations from the Triumph riders and the proceeds from the ride will be used to support the noble cause of girl child education. While we celebrated our freedom with the Freedom Ride 2018, Triumph India provided a great chance to make it worth the while with this noble cause.
