All-New Royal Enfield Himalayan Review: An Adventure Redefined

It’s been just over a year for me at ZigWheels, and as a newbie, I try to grab every little opportunity I get to ride motorcycles. So when the invite for the first edition of the Jawa-Yezdi Biker Brewscape came up, I tagged along with Jehan and went for it, despite not really being a coffee guy. My mind was busy fantasising about me gunning down the Yezdi Adventure with the Jawa-Yezdi owners’ group. Sundays don’t get any better! But reality soon hit me when a rather slow ride later I found myself engaging in coffee brewing, an experience that I honestly wasn’t really big on. A recipe for disaster then?
Not really! The energy that the coffee enthusiasts had was honestly quite infectious and the nerdiness with which they made their coffee was entertaining and I found myself brewing up some quite decent (read bad) coffee as well. And more importantly, I was talking to all sorts of people in the motorcycling world. Racers, influencers, owners, corporate types and fellow journos, the event had them all. And as a young and inexperienced guy, it gives me a lot of joy to listen to veterans of the industry share the experiences they’ve had over the years.
And that’s when I realized, there’s a lot more to motorcycling than just going far or fast. Motorcycling is about getting on a bike and doing whatever you want to. It’s the force that made me get out of my house early on a Sunday morning for a ride that was honestly quite mundane and an activity that didn’t really interest me. But that’s when I realized that what I was doing at the farm is what motorcycling stands for. Meeting, conversing with new people, having adventures (and misadventures) together and bonding over the one love that unites us: motorcycles.

To all the people reading this, it doesn’t matter what you ride. As long as you love swinging your leg over bikes and enjoy each and every moment in the saddle, you’re as much of a motorcyclist as anyone else. My personal garage consists of a five-year-old Hero Passion XPro, a bike which I have used for embarking on inter-city trips; a bike which struggles for breath every second when out on the highway. A bike that I’ve taken on gnarly and dangerous off-road expeditions from where it’s returned bruised and battered, and yet, I wouldn’t trade those experiences for anything else in the world.
Motorcycling in its purest form is the sheer joy of getting on motorcycles and enjoying every moment of it. Years down the line I will look back and be grateful that I went for the Biker Brewscape, an event that changed the way I looked at motorcycling.
