This 400+ km ride will take participants through the scenic landscapes of Tamil Nadu, culminating in Kookal, a breathtaking destination nestled in the hills. While CBC initially planned to hold its anniversary ride on January 1, 2025, unforeseen restrictions from police authorities and government guidelines in Tamil Nadu and Kerala have prompted the team to organize this pre-anniversary ride instead.

Looking Forward to 2025

Despite these changes, the Coimbatore Bikers Community remains committed to delivering an even bigger event in early 2025 or 2026. Plans are underway for an unlimited riders event, promising an unforgettable experience for all members and motorbike enthusiasts across the region.
