About Nakul
YOUR GUIDE TO EPIC ADVENTURES!
Nakul has spent years riding and instructing across some of India’s most demanding terrain — from the high passes of Ladakh and Spiti to the desert trails of Rajasthan and the technical descents of the Western Ghats.
He brings a rare combination of deep technical skill and measured judgment to every ride. His instruction is precise, his route knowledge is firsthand, and his approach to safety is non-negotiable; without ever diminishing the experience riders came for.
Over the course of many expeditions, he has guided riders of every level — from those twisting a throttle off-tarmac for the first time to seasoned tourers looking to sharpen their craft. What sets him apart is an ability to read both terrain and rider with equal care, adjusting pace, challenge, and instruction to match.
Riders return not just for the routes, but for the confidence they leave with – in their machine, in the trail ahead, and in themselves.

Throttle therapy in its purest form.
This ride was all about swapping asphalt for adrenaline and turning a simple trip into a full-blown adventure. Triumph India & ADVbasics came together to create the perfect symphony of excitement and brought the Scrambler crew together—where the only thing better than the ride was the people you’re sharing it with.
