May 14: Fifteen FZ riders meticulously rode through the rough terrain and steep slopes of Mustang to reach up to an elevation of 12,600 feet to Lo Manthang from Kathmandu and back, traversing a distance of 1,314 kilometers in eight days.

Yamaha Nepal, the organizer of the event, said in a statement that the riders completed the difficult journey without any technical glitches, which the company claimed is a record next to the first of such series of FZ ride to Everest Base Camp earlier.

According to the company, the riders were accompanied by Himalayan Roadies’ judges Raymond Shrestha and Diya Maskey.

The company’s CEO Chiranjibi Shah said that the ‘Ride with Roadies’ proved that Yamaha bikes can travel in difficult road conditions.

The company said it has been organizing such rides on a regular basis to bond strongly with Yamaha riders.

“Yamaha motorcycles ensure the thrill of riding without compromising safety and comfort of the riders. We hope this journey will provide a life-time experience to the Yamaha FZ riders and also contribute to building brotherhood among the riders,” said Vishnu Kumar Agarwal, the company’s managing director.

 The riders selected for the ride included Bishal Rai and Sandeep Sharma from Itahari, Samman Shrestha and Sujan Poudel from Chitwan, Anil Baral and Sagar Burja Magar from Butwal, Jiwan Bayalkoti, Dipu Maharjan and Ayush Raj Khaniya from Kathmandu, Sandeep Chhetri, Gyanedra Bikram Shahi and Bishal Aryal from Pokhara. Pooja Gurung from Chitwan was the only female rider who participated in the ride through special entry.
