On 28th February 2015, Bengaluru experienced the first ever bike-a-thon to celebrate the independent woman. The Jealous 21 Butt Out Brigade was a superlative event led by the dynamic Bikernis – the female group of bike riders in association with Jealous 21. Over 30 Bikernis gathered at Jealous 21 CMH store in Indiranagar, Bengaluru to make this rally happen on account of the upcoming International Women’s Day. The flag went off at 11 a.m and the bikernis went vrrooom vroom..!!
Butt out Brigade’s sole intention is to break the hackneyed saying of ‘’being a biker as a ‘guy’ thing”. Their route involved many parts of the city where they rode with pride spreading the message of women independence. Bikernis are a perfect example of today’s striking, valiant and gleeful women.
Speaking on the occasion, Shibani Mishra, CMO, Indus League, said, “Jealous 21 as a brand believes in the inherent strength of every woman. We are glad that we could organize such an event to showcase the spirit of the modern young women along with The Bikerni, who themselves are a great example of the carefree women of today. Jealous 21 BUTT OUT BRIGADE is a manifestation of the unapologetic stance of the young girl of today, empowering her to stand up for what she believes in and arming her with confidence, style and independence. The event was crafted around the attitude of the brand that matched the attitude of today’s young women, who can take a stand for themselves in the society. I am certain that this event will reinforce the image of women who are fiercely independent.”
