What made you take up riding in the first place?
Pearljeet: I’m from Malaysia and everyone rides there. I have been doing it since the age of 16. I’m the only one in the group who has a sports bike. I’m like the Speedy Gonzales.
Sarah: Dad has been riding since he was 15 in Syria. He first took me when I was 14 years old. I loved it form then and completed my licence in 2019.
Widad: My journey started recently. I never dreamed in my life I’d be on two wheels. I just made a bucket list of things to do before 30 and thought I’d like to go on a ride. I didn’t know how to approach it at first. The riding groups can be intimidating. I managed to approach a group and ride pillion My first ride, I knew I didn’t want to be a passenger. I wanted to be in control. I did my licence as soon as possible and that was 2018.
