This lady biker has created many world records for riding a bike on the highest pass.
You don't get any fame easily or by sitting, now if you want to touch the heights then there is no use of fear. At least change the path citing difficulties and curse luck and put all the blame on it. Or overcome difficulties with courage and determination and just move towards your goal.
It is not a matter of woman or man, the main thing is your own. If you have any purpose in life, then it should be so big that you can only see every possible way to reach your destination. Being a woman is not a sign of weakness or softness. Courage is also abundant in women.
Pallavi Faujdar is a great example of courage, passion, and fearlessness for all women. She has made many world records in bike riding.
Born on 20 December 1979, Pallavi Faujdar loved her father's bike. She had a different passion for riding a bike. Her father, Ashok Faujdar, is a retired electrical engineer. Whenever she saw her father riding a bike, a strong desire would arise in her mind to ride a bike too.

She first rode a bike at the age of 14, and since then her interest in bike riding increased.
Often she used to steal her father's bike and take it away. No one in the house should know, so she used to drag the bike on foot for half a kilometer and then start it and run it.
When her father's friend complained to her father that she rides a bike, then he must have been surprised. But he did not let the daughter's hobby be suppressed. He believed that when there is no difference between the education of a son and a daughter, then why suppress the daughter's hobby.
In the year 2004, Pallavi Faujdar got married to Parikshit Mishra of Noida. Her husband is a Major in the Indian Army. She is the mother of two children. Being a mother of two kids, it was definitely a bit difficult to maintain my passion for bike riding. But she got full support from her in-laws too. It is true when the family is together, things automatically get balanced.
Pallavi Faujdar has also been a fashion designer in Bangalore. Along with this, she is also a social worker and Reiki expert.
She started her riding career by joining a riding group in New Delhi.

Isn't it strange that our society thinks that being a girl, is the need to ride a bike? If you want to drive then drive the scooter. Why are vehicles invented now on the basis of boy-girl or woman-man? Being a woman, society will also decide the hobbies of life. Don't women have the freedom to like and not like? If yes then why?
Jagdisha's best wishes to this single woman power promoting women empowerment. Also wish you new fame and healthy life.
