Motorcycle-stunt teams from different Indian security forces frequently put on performances at festivals and parades, such as the annual Republic Day parade in New Delhi. These teams of daredevils stack themselves high on single or multiple motorcycle rigs, displaying their skills and putting on a show.

Gathered below are photos of some of these two-wheeled performances from recent years.

You older folks, I mean more mature folks, may remember the Royal Enfield motorcycle brand. Now made in India, a review of their latest bike gave it very high marks for build quality. Too often you see a vintage name that was sold, and then you get low quality, but not in this case.

Elevators, Chinese rush on elevator when door opens don’t wait for anyone to get off, British and German passengers offended enough to say something. I guess I am some old Texas guy that hold’s a door open for a lady and says thank you to anyone doing something for me.
The most I ever saw in Vietnam in the 60s was 4 girls on a Honda 50.
And why I don’t go on cruise ships...
When I want to get away, the thought of jumping on a giant floating apartment building, jammed with 6,000 obnoxious loud tourist, has the same appeal for me as a rattlesnake bite.
Motorcycle-stunt teams from different Indian motto.
IF YOU CAN DRIVE IT I CAN RIDE IT.
That’s Tuesday in downtown Kolkata.
I was going to guess The Philippines!
A single motorcycle? So motorcycles can get married in India?
