India Bike Week Returns For 2021 Special Edition — Aamby Valley To Play Host

India Bike Week (IBW), the nation's biggest biking fest will make its return this year with a Special Edition of the two-wheeler extravaganza on the 4th and 5th of December.

However, unlike previous editions, riders taking part in the 'Great Migration' will not be riding to the state of Goa and its brilliant beaches. Instead, the IBW 2021 Special Edition has a new host in the form of Aamby Valley in the Pune district of Maharashtra. So expect a host of twisty ghat roads and cool air instead of sunshine and sand this year.

Riders wishing to join the latest edition of India Bike Week can RSVP online at the IBW website. Tickets will go on sale online on the 17th of November. However, due to the blasted virus and the issues it has caused, tickets for the 2021 Special Edition of IBW will only be available in limited numbers.

Like in previous years, IBW 2021 will host a series of events across the two day fest in Aamby Valley. IBW 2021 will play host to a stunt competition where stunt teams from across the country will battle it out for the trophy and bragging rights. If that wasn't enough to get your adrenaline flowing, then the news that international stunt riders will be present and showing off their various tricks on two wheels should get your blood pumping.

IBW 2021 will also feature the Big Trip tent which will host sessions by the giants of the world's Biking scene who will tell their stories. If you like to hear people talk about riding across the craziest parts of planet Earth - Afghanistan, Mongolia and the Patagonia desert among others - then this will the space for you.

For those looking to groove and headbang their way through the night, the RevMoto stage will once again play host to live music sessions that will be sure to keep the crowds vowed. The RevMoto stage will also be the place to be for new bike launch events.

However, if you think music and talking is not your cup of tea then the IBW Collector's Showcase should be the place to go and feast your eyes. This year, the Collector's Showcase will shine a spotlight on some legendary motorcycles from the past along with India's coolest custom motorcycles.

For those looking to bring back memorabilia or get some cool riding gear, the IBW Biker's Mart — India's largest biker exhibitor zone - will be the place to be if you want riding accessories for both yourself and your favourite set of wheels.

Speaking about IBW 2021, Martin da Costa, CEO of 70 EMG and Director of India Bike Week said, "It will be the best India Bike Week we have ever done. In 2020, for obvious reasons, we had to take a breather. This year though, after 18 months of just looking at our bikes, it's finally - finally! - time to ride. We've been hell-bent on making IBW happen, and all year we have wanted IBW 2021 to be up close and personal - friends and riders together. In the first week of December 2021, the Great Migration will begin from all over the country and assemble in Aamby Valley. Sure, it's not Goa, but this is a special event under special circumstances. It really is a Special Edition. We're right next to our friend Rongom's amazing Valley Run and I cannot imagine a better weekend if you're one of us."

Thoughts On IBW 2021

India Bike week returns with a new host city and limited numbers but promises to be a raucous affair once again. So get your gear and bikes ready and book yourself a ticket if you want to be a part of the craziness that is IBW.
