Independence Day - Serve the Hungry

15th Aug, 2017, 70th Independence Day – We ride for passion, we ride for brotherhood; this Independence day, we rode for Humanity. Royal Enfield club Noida ought to plan a special ride as it was a special day. We generously volunteered our support to Robin Hood Army Noida to serve food and juices to less fortunate people of slum areas near Delhi.  Robin Hood Army is a volunteer based organization that work to get surplus food from restaurants and feed the less fortunate people across India and Pakistan. They organised campaign #Mission1Million – ‘The Largest War Against Hunger’ to serve food to 1 million needy across border. Royal Enfield Club Noida became the official Ride partner for this event in Noida and offered Juices and water bottles along with volunteer support. 

The city looked painted with Indian flag tri-color. Cars, bikes, autos, buildings were waving the national flag. We could hear the national patriotic songs from nearby residential areas. Everyone was celebrating the 70th Independence day. Entire scene was patriotic and giving the sense of pride. 41 Royal Enfield bikes decorated with Indian National flags rode thru the streets of Noida to reach a slum area Madanpur Khadar. Our riders volunteered their service to serve food, water and juices to the deprived people of society. Some of the volunteers were managing the people in queue so that food can be distributed easily. It took about an hour and we served food to almost every thin and lean in that area.
Many riders joined with their family and kids to this act of compassion. It was a pleasure to participate in a Charity event but we left that place with many unanswered question in our mind –We are still in the clutches of Poverty and Illiteracy. Are we really free after 7 decades of independence?

Give More, Give Better. Humanity Prevails!

Breakfast Ride to Golden Huts Resort, Rewari

Breakfast ride – It brings excitement to all of our club riders as it helps them to break their daily dull routines and ride their royal machines with brothers from same passion. 30th July, 2017, we planned for a breakfast ride to Golden Huts Resort, NH-8, Rewari. The excitement for this ride was very evident as 42 riders participated and all reached the Noida, flag off location at 5:15 in the morning. The reason for excitement was not unknown, it was first ride for few new riders and also, we had booked the venue with a Swimming pool. To add more to our excitement, Trails of India was also featuring our ride this time.

We started exactly at 5:45 from Noida and met our Delhi, Gurugram Riders at Gurugram Toll. Royal Enfield Club Noida riders looked none less than a decorated battalion when rode in a 1x1 formation on NH-8. It was a disciplined ride and we managed the time perfectly. We reached the venue at 8:30. Forty Two riders of RECNoida parked their Royal Enfields and couldn’t stop themselves to dive in to Swimming pool without a delay. We had a short introduction session in swimming pool to know our fellow riders and enjoyed the pool party with music later. Riders had their breakfasts together, socialized with new riders and shared their riding tales. To all rider’s surprise, Trails of India gifted a sipper to everyone and wished us luck for upcoming rides.   

Live Strong. Ride Strong!
