Commenting on the earlier response to Chai &Pakoda ride Martin da Costa, CEO of 70 EMG said “The primary reason to organize Chai and Pakoda ride is to gather people in a community regardless of what they ride. From seasoned bikers to first-time riders, from people aged 50 to young college goers, everyone come and join in this breakfast run. And the only criterion to join the group is to come on a two-wheeler. Once every one puts on the helmets, no one knows who’s who. Everyone’s equal”

A participant of previous Chai &Pakoda ride held in Mumbai also commented “It was one solid ride. What a sight, from Ducati’s to Pulsars, from RX100 to RE500, over 200 bikers participated. What makes Chai &Pakoda ride special is the enthusiasm regarding the upcoming INDIA BIKE WEEK.Over paratha’s, pakodas and chai, bikers get busy making plans for the upcoming event and how they’ll catch up in Goa and make Mumbai proud”
