Really awesome collection of bikes for a ride.

I am oggling so much at the pictures, people who got to see and hear the HD collective rumble together must have experienced the "being in heaven" feeling for sure

Many decades ago when I first encountered this iconic motorcycle and was witness to HOG rides a lasting impression formed in my mind. An impression so deep that three decades later I still remembered the charm of it all to have bought one for myself to live the ride. I thought these beautiful pictures courtesy Banjara-Harley capture the essence of this amazing motorcycle and the spirit that drives people to ride one...

Hope you enjoy them as much as I do !!

Good Stuff DKG, guess with buying a Harley its not just a bike, but getting into an altogether different lifestyle as well.

I had visited the Harley Showroom in Hyd during my Saddlesore ride and felt sad that no active rides were happening... Nice to see that Hyd HOG becoming alive and rides happening there. Keep the pace and hope to have a Bangalore-Hyderabad meet soon :-)

BTW, excellent photos and keep them coming...

Congrats !! Are you based in Hyd or Chennai?

DKG,

Good initiative by Banjara Harley, everyone seems to have enjoyed the day including the kids. I hope there will be more such events. Is the HOG an initiative of HD or is it the owners who start a chapter.

Love the Blue Nightrod, and if I am not mistaken there is a Ducati Monster in one of the pics.

Its an H-D initiative, but if they haven't done a ride in your town yet then no reason why owners can't kick start the same.

Thanks DKG!

I'm based in Hyderabad. Will follow thread and try to meet up at Banjara Harley.

Wow, looks like great fun. Cannot imagine so many HD's at the same time on road. Have seen it in US, not in India. Congrats to the club. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice photos! But one thing that is disheartening is riding 2 wheelers on the outer ring road!

Banjara Harley had apparently taken police permission to conduct the ride via ORR

Hello DKG (don't know your real name Sir)....

If ever you do something like that you could also check out the P4XL made by Freightliner....
