Mysuru: Rifa Taskeen, a seven-year-old girl sent the crowds spinning with her sterling performance involving stunts and crazy drifts riding on a 5-wheel desert bike at J K grounds as the day 2 of of Mysuru Dasara belonged to kids.
A second standard student at St. Joseph’s School in the city, wonder girl Rifa stole the show on the first day of Chinnara Dasara (Children’s Dasara ) on her 5-wheel desert bike. Capable of performing both forward and backward movements and almost 50 crazy drifts at once, Young Rifa loves riding all forms of vehicles. As Rifa leapt in the air riding on her special bike, the spectators were thrown into a frenzy before she landed whipping a dust storm. A special tent shaped platform was set in the venue using wooden planks for the exclusive display of skills.
Her father Tajuddin, a bike rider himself and trainer, aims to script a new Guinness world record in his daughter’s name in the near future. “We are looking for some lung space to fulfil the eligibility criteria set by the Guinness team and permission from Road Transport Authorities (RTO) to reach the feat currently held by a 10-year-old US boy,” Tajuddin said.
Under father’s watchful eyes, Rifa has been undergoing training for the last 3 years to touch the new milestone.”My daughter can ride all types of cars with ease and perform stunts and drifts with ease”, says proud Tajuddin.
