Royal Enfield held the 16th edition of Rider Mania in Goa


from 22 to 24 November. The festival has surely come a long

way and the madness intensifies with each passing year



Story: Azaman Chothia

eaching goa a day
before the event gave me an
idea of what fun was in store
for the next three days. The
streets of goa were packed
with Royal enfield riders alongside
their motorcycles at every corner. The
spirit of biking brotherhood came to life
with different groups of bikers revving
their motorcycles and arriving in goa,
all excited for the next three days. Upon
my arrival, Royal enfield were kind
enough to lend me a himalayan that i
would be using to ride around in goa.
This year, the Rider Mania witnessed
the highest participation with more than
8,000 people attending the festival.

School”. This initiative was highly needed in
india because the Flat Track form of riding has
never gained any traction here. The “Slide
School” will teach interested riders the art of
Flat Track riding and the first leg of this school
will take place at the Big Rock dirt Park on the
outskirts of Bengaluru.
The himalayan FT 411 sports many
modifications as compared to the road-legal
motorcycle. The front end has been stripped
down and fitted with a plate that gets a racing
number on it. The rear part of the bike gets a
new seat and bodywork, making it look ever
ready for the Flat Track. it also gets a
performance exhaust system from S&S. Both
the front and the rear end get 18-inch wheels
that sport Timsun tubeless tyres. The chassis
and the tank remain the same, although the
modifications have led to the bike losing almost
30 kg of weight.
Day One







The first day was all about the
participants getting acquainted with the
festival venue to analyse their favourite
spots to be at. an announcement was
ready to be made by the ceo of Royal
enfield with a bike under wraps on the
stage, gaining the entire crowd’s
attention. he spoke about the initiative
on #LeaveeveryPlaceBetter which is
their small way of saving the
environment and spreading awareness
about the same. The participants were
all given a metal sipper bottle at the time
of registration to promote the
elimination of single-use plastic bottles.
The crowd cheered on and eagerly
waited for the main announcement of
the day. The bike on the stage was
unveiled and it was one badass-looking
himalayan, all ready for the Flat Track.
They call it the “himalayan FT 411” and
it is going to be used in india’s first-of-
its-kind Flat Track riding school, “Slide

DayTWO







Royal enfield had organized a dirt-track
race just for the media personnel this
time at Rider Mania. This was exciting
to know, having seen the dirt-track races
on the first day. There were 11 of us
journalists, all ready for the race. Being
my first race ever, my morning started
with the pre-race jitters kicking in. We
were all handed a himalayan at the track
that was modified into a dirt bike for the
race. a walk around the track gave me a for the holeshot. it was a bad start to my

Thanks to Royal enfield for giving us
this opportunity to get a hands-on
experience of the dirt-track, which was
one of the highlights of the festival.

Day Three







The final day was relaxed for everyone
as it was a hot and lazy Sunday in
goa. This enabled me to walk around
the festival and explore what i hadn’t
already got a chance to. Something
that caught a lot of eyes for all three
days at the festival was the custom
bike builds that were showcased.
Various custom builders had taken
upon the task of delivering some
unique Royal enfield builds for
display at the festival. The custom
builders were enthusiastic as they
interacted with the crowd interested
in their motorcycles. Some of them
also announced that their builds were
available as kits for purchase.































The other activities at the festival
included the fun stuff such as beer
drinking competitions, football on
motorbikes, riding through obstacle
courses, slow races, and much more.
This encouraged and kept up the spirit
of the bikers at the festival. all the three
nights ended with the best of music,
food, and beer. The energy levels were
high throughout and the festival ended
with a bang. We can’t wait to attend
Rider Mania next year.
