Royal Enfield & Shikhar Dhawan Foundation ride together for Miles for Smiles

In Amritsar, the riders covered three routes with scenic or iconic locations, starting from Golden Temple, right up to the Indo-Pak border near Wagah. In Agra, the start point was the Taj Mahal, culminating at Mathura and Vrindavan. In Delhi, the ride was flagged off from the Royal Enfield brand store in Saket.  The Eicher Group Foundation is firmly committed to working with communities and engaging the global motorcycle enthusiast community to bring about positive interaction and behavior changes that will help rebalance our world. The Shikhar Dhawan Foundation is committed to supporting the communities in rural and remote areas where medical infrastructure and aid are in short supply.

Speaking on the occasion, Shikhar Dhawan Said, “As part of our social mission, Shikhar Dhawan Foundation is happy to collaborate with Eicher Group Foundation for this community upliftment program to build resilience and drive long-lasting change. We also intend to catalyze a global movement of lakhs of riders who can actively partner with us in our endeavor. Through this unique partnership, we look forward to sowing the seeds of prosperity and happiness across the globe through collaborative efforts to serve the community.”

“Royal Enfield is synonymous with leisure riding and touring in India. Keeping in with the spirit of purposeful exploration, Royal Enfield riders have often been agents of positive change, whether in minimizing their footprint in a bid to “leave every place better” or in partnering with local communities to build resilience. As a follow-up to the recent National Tourism Day, we are excited to collaborate with the Shikhar Dhawan Foundation to ride together for the cause of community and social welfare in some of the most iconic tourist spots in northern India,” said Bidisha Dey, Executive Director, Eicher Group Foundation.
