October 18, 2015 15:00 IST

On your bike, that is ;-)

Have you ever dreamt of going on a motorcycle ride around the world but found yourself procrastinating for reasons unknown? In case you have, you can hit JACKPOT with these reasons that will make you rush for your bags and vroom away into the sunset!!

1. To prove the fact that the world is round

They say, the world is round and not flat! Boy, shouldn't we actually go for a spin and experience the fact? You must keep riding in one direction and see if you land on the same spot again!

2. To experience riding on both sides (or no side!) of the road!

We are so tired of riding on the left side of the road that just for a change you must ride on the right side of road as well. So, gear up, get rolling and experience the joy of riding on both sides of the road!!

3. Because you have that courage and confidence in you!

Haven't we all learned that courage isn't for the faint hearted... Oh boy we sure are courageous and we want to prove it to the world.

4. Because you can't taste all 32,000 brands of beer in India!

Yeah riders! The world ride will give you a chance to taste all 32,000 brands of BEER in the world. Do you need any more coaxing for that ride?

5. Because those beautiful chicks need a ride!

Well, well, well... now here's the creme of the ride. Don't you think it'd be great to take a chick riding in every country you visit? Of course, it could be on a ride or for a ride wink.

6. To actually go and experience which country has best traffic sense!

Well, we already know how good (or bad!) we are at traffic sense. Won't it be a nice idea to find a country with better (or worst) traffic sense than us? Step-up and ride away to glory!

7. To find that crazy person like you in this world!

You may travel round (in case the earth is round) or straight (in case the earth is flat), but we're sure you will definitely bump in to 'crazy' people like you during your ride! And meeting equally crazy people like us is always a pleasure!
