Vir Nakai who rode the first leg of the Ducati Globetrotter 90 world tour has handed over the torch to the second rider in Moscow.
Vir Nakai, a 37 year old Indian biker and traveller was the first Globetrotter. He was passed the torch directly by CEO Claudio Domenicali, to then set off from via Cavalieri Ducati in the direction of Moscow. Reaching Moscow he handed the Ducati Multistrada Enduro 1200 over to second rider Laurent Cochet, he will end his leg after around 9,000kms in the Japanese city of Sakaiminato.
Vir Nakai said motorcycling is all his life and has been since he was a child, travelling on the tank of his father's bike. "There is no other adventure in the world but the one you can find riding a motorcycle," he says. He has travelled throughout India, from the Himalayas to Bangalore, and in the coming venture he would like to “absorb every drop of it in order to become a part of it, smell the scents, smile and tell the tale".
