Mumbai To Host Gulf Scooter Rally On 6th July, 2014

The summer has ended and the monsoon season has just begun. Now for most Mumbai city dwellers, the monsoon is the most dreaded season in the year as they can't get on their bikes for commutes. However, Gulf oil has confirmed it will hold a scooter rally on the 6th of July, 2014.

The monsoon has just begun and all of us in Mumbai know once it starts raining, it hardly does stop. The 25th Gulf Scooter Rally will be held in a mining area at Navi Mumbai. The off road challenge will be made interesting if it even rains for a few minutes.

The course has been tested by four wheelers and has been difficult for them to tackle already. So the two wheelers are already on a back foot with surface conditions. With the current scenario though, the rally could witness rainfall throughout the session.
