Royal Enfield, the oldest motorcycle brand in continuous production, has concluded the second edition of its designing platform – ArtofMotorcycling. The creative platform was launched in 2020 to fuel creativity amongst the artists, creators and motorcycling enthusiasts by bringing out their love for motorcycling. With more than 15K registrations, a 50% jump from the first year, the brand has seen phenomenal traction towards the initiative. The winners have been hand-picked by the renowned jury members- Leading fashion designers Shantanu and Nikhil, Celebrated Illustrator Vimal Chandran and Ace Photographer Bobby Joshi and Royal Enfield’s community.

This year’s top 3 winners are Harsh Namdeo (Bina, Madhya Pradesh), Ekant Singh (Noida) and Gautam Gajbar (Mumbai), and have won a fabulous opportunity to co-create a capsule range with Royal Enfield. Also, the next 3 winners bagged an opportunity to intern with Royal Enfield design teams; Prashant Singh (New Delhi), Abhirath NC (Kerala) and Prathamesh Rumaji Shedge (Mumbai). Abhirath and Prathamesh also won the rider’s choice award, chosen through a poll conducted on the brand’s Instagram page, Royal Enfield. The contest ended in a tie between the two, with Royal Enfield announcing 2 winners.

Speaking about the campaign, Mr. Puneet Sood, National Business Head – North and West India, Nepal, Bhutan & Global Head – Apparel Business said, “As a brand, Royal Enfield has always stood for self-expression. Our motorcycles have been the perfect canvas for customisation. The genesis of #ArtOfMotorcycling was to celebrate the ethos of exploration and motorcycling through the lens of art. Like the first season we have received an awe-inspiring response to this season as well, with more than 15k registrations. We are very excited to note that 8 out of every 10 participants were non-Royal Enfield owners and majority participation came from small towns. The platform through the medium of art and motorcycling has indeed resulted in bringing together diverse communities, cutting across barriers like age, profession and geography.”
