Why We Ride:
The Story Behind Riding Roots Adventure
— A Journey Through Himalayan Passes, Culture, and Purpose
By Janmeet Singh, Founder of Riding Roots
There’s a moment every rider remembers.
The first time the wind pushes against your chest, the road opens wide, and the world silences behind the hum of your engine. For me, that moment wasn’t just the beginning of a ride—it was the beginning of a calling.
Welcome to Riding Roots Adventure. This is more than just a motorcycle tour company. It’s a movement, a mindset, and a way to connect with the wild, sacred landscapes of India in the most raw and honest way possible—on two wheels.
🌄 The Ride That Sparked It All
Years ago, I took a solo ride into the Himalayas. I wasn’t looking for a business idea. I was looking for something real.
What I found were stories written in the dust of ancient valleys, warmth in the homes of mountain strangers, and a version of India that no guidebook had ever shown me.
I started Riding Roots to share that experience with others—riders who aren’t just tourists, but seekers of something deeper.
Why “Riding Roots”?
Because every road has roots.
And ours are tied to the soil, culture, and spirit of the places we ride through. We're not here to rush through the miles—we’re here to soak in the stories behind them.
Our adventures are designed to go beyond sightseeing. Whether it's sipping salty butter tea in a Ladakhi home, soaking in Vashisht’s hot springs, or witnessing the silence of Uming La at 19,000 feet—these are moments that stay long after the engine cools.
What Makes Us Different?
Cultural Immersion: We partner with locals to give you access to offbeat villages, hidden shrines, and authentic food.
Small Groups, Big Stories: We ride in tight-knit groups (10–15 max) to keep things personal and immersive.
Founder-led Rides: Many tours are led by me personally—because for us, this is not a business, it's a legacy.
No Filter, No Frills: Expect real India. Unfiltered, raw, and breathtaking.
Our Playground: India
From the dunes of Rajasthan to the sky-high roads of Ladakh, the lush valleys of Uttarakhand, and the tribal trails of Odisha—our rides cover a spectrum of terrain, culture, and spirit.
Each route is carefully curated not just for thrill, but for meaningful connection.
Who Rides With Us?
The dreamers chasing Himalayan sunrises.
The couples crafting memories over winding roads.
The solo riders looking for their story in the silence of the mountains.
Our riders come from around the world—but they leave as family.
