VOCAL FOR GOACAL

RIDING HIS WAY FROM 1972 TO THE AGE OF 72, MEET SHAMBA, THE SUPERHERO WITHOUT A CAPE! Under Portuguese rule, motorcycle pilots became a unique part of life in Goa. After 1979, it was incorporated into the Motor Vehicle Act and recognized by the Indian government. In almost every Goan town and village and along 1200 km of major and minor arterial roads, you can find these two-wheeler motorcycle pilots painted black and yellow like auto-rickshaws or taxis.
