Valve Autotainment hosted the first edition of the ‘Ignite the Passion’ superbike rally in Mumbai on December 20, 2015.

The event saw over 51 participants tour through Mumbai on high-capacity motorcycles. Commencing from Lower Parel, the rally proceeded to the Worli Sea Face before moving to Annie Besant Road, Peddar Road, Chowpatty, Marine Drive with a halt at Nariman Point, and back to Lower Parel through the same route.

“We saw tremendous support from the bikers themselves, and they too have been excited about the event since quite some time. They met new people, had a fun time and enjoyed the ride,” said Vatsal Shah, founder of Valve Autotainment. “Ignite the Passion was a great beginning for the many more exciting events to come in the future. Although it was the first version of Ignite the Passion, it was better than we had expected! Hoping to schedule the next events soon.”

The line-up for the rally included models from notable brands such as Harley-Davidson, Honda, Suzuki, Ducati, and Triumph, among others. A few Yamaha R1s, BMW S1000RRs along with a Kawasaki Ninja, Aprilia RSV4 Factory, Limited Edition Ducati 999 and Yamaha MT-01 were also spotted at the event.
