PACK THE BAG

We are very saddened by the grievous news of Gaurav A Jani, a well-known name in the world of motorcycling, passed away on 24th May 2020.
He was the man behind ‘Ride of My Life’, a motorcycle touring company based in India since 2001.
Gaurav was a national award winning filmmaker who gave up making commercial films a long time ago to follow his passion. From the past 11 years he had been travelling solo across India and making documentary films about remote places and indigenous people. Two of his films, Riding Solo to the Top of the World and One Crazy Ride have won awards at film festivals worldwide. His third film, Motorcycle Chang Pa is about a one year journey to the Changthang plateau in Ladakh. Gaurav was the founder member of 60kph Motorcycle Travel Club, India. He was also an advisor at The Ted Simon Foundation UK (which encourages and assists travellers to make an extra effort to mold their observations and insights into something of value for the rest of the world) and an instructor at Overland Expo USA (the world's largest event for do-it-yourself adventure enthusiasts).
Besides the tours of his company, he always inspired and encouraged more people to take up motorcycle travel. We can say he is one of the influencer for motorcycle tour in Ladakh and Tawang.
Team PTB would like to share our heartfelt condolences to his near and dear ones, may his soul rest in peace.

With the hope that every person transform their darkness into happiness. We wish you and your family a very happy and safe Diwali.
