ISSUE 12 | DECEMBER 2019 BC FORUM Tension and nervousness crept in when we entered the forest area of 'Keseragutta,' Hyderabad. Thousands of students from different engineering colleges from all over India gathered with their quad bikes for this competition. "Stranger in a strange land" that was the feeling there. Day 1 and 2 was static rounds where we gave an excellent performance in presentation rounds. Our team was the first to pass technical inspection round after lot of struggles and sleepless nights of preparations. And on Day 3 our vehicle roared through the testing ground causing an unexpected fall of our driver and total turnover of vehicle. That moment we all got tensed, not for the vehicle but for the driver, our primary concern was that nobody should be hurt. Through lot of pressures and disappointments that we faced but we didn't give up. Next day we started fixing our vehicle for the final round by dismantling engine, fixing it and reassembling it. Our vehicle was able to complete final run, and that was the best moment for team 'Trivayanthra,' all members were exhausted with sweat and smiling faces of achievement of trying this hard. From our small college to testing grounds of Hyderabad, this journey was tested our attitude, patience and more importantly the will power to "never give up" in life. BIKERS CLUB ® | MAGAZINE | PAGE 45 Through this journey, we have gone through many tough phases in life where we had dealt with lot of negative people who constantly kept on saying that 'we would never make till the end.' Although all the hurdles we passed with flying colors and bagging the 8th position in that competition despite being first timers. At last we would like to thank all faculties of mechanical engineering branch and our dear family members who stood by us throughout in our journey as our biggest strength and motivation, without their support we wouldn't have had make it till the end. Thank you all for trusting our crazy ideas.
