Preetam is a seasoned motoring journalist with a specialisation and passion for two-wheelers, even though every now and then he tries to take off on long multi-day drives to the mountains as well. He has been riding motorcycles since the early 1990s and started touring since the late ‘90s when motorcycle touring was an almost unheard-of concept. He has owned all sorts of motorcycles, from two-stroke singles, twins and four-stroke thumpers and multi-cylinder models. He’s been heading two-wheeler content at car&bike for over 9 years and helps provide a key perspective to all two-wheeler industry and product-related stories. He has also played a leadership role in mentoring others in the car&bike editorial team along the way.
