Founded in October 2020, Bikers Troop Bengaluru (BTB) is the brainchild of Harshith BK for citizens who share a common love for bikes. Originally a group of 13 individuals, BTB is now a 250 member-strong community that is on a bigger mission. On each adventurous trip, the team picks a destination, where they halt and conduct a cleanliness drive. From plastic bottles to wrappers, everything is collected in a waste bag carried by the bikers. The idea, Harshith says, came to him on a biking expedition with a friend on the outskirts of the city. “

We were out for a drive, and saw a place littered with waste bottles. We picked up a few, but realised the need for a larger group to undertake this task, especially since this issue isn’t restricted to one part of the city. With this intent, Bikers Troop Bengaluru was born,” he shares. This is why the travelling riders carry their own water bottles, regardless of where they go.바카라 웹사이트
