Musdaque Chowdhury
A Bangladeshi traveler, motorcyclist and YouTuber, who had gained recognition as the inaugural moto-traveler from Bangladesh to journey overland into Pakistan and the UAE in end of 2019 with his Bangladeshi registered motorcycle: Chatta Metro La 15-4638. He also is a prominent travel content maker, achieving a Silver Play Button from YouTube. Primarily renowned for traversing challenging motorable tourist destinations within his home country, Musdaque's overland exploration initiative emerged in early 2017, fueled by the realization that cross-border travel with a personal vehicle was feasible through possession of a Carnet de Passages en Douane (CPD) from the Automobile Association of Bangladesh.
Under the banner of "Ride for Nation," Musdaque, a motorcycle enthusiast and operations cum sales specialist, left his position at the esteemed Radisson Blu Chattogram Bay View to pursue his dream. Embarking on his quest on September 28, 2019, he aimed to hoist the national flag high worldwide, notably journeying to Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Achieving prominence for his endeavor to perform Umrah on a motorcycle, Musdaque's story garnered widespread attention through numerous reports in national news and media. Unfortunately, the global COVID-19 pandemic compelled him to leave his motorcycle in the UAE and return home on March 6, 2020, after traveling through India, Pakistan, and the UAE.
Anticipating the post-pandemic era, Musdaque envisions resuming his journey and pursuing Umrah before embarking on a round-the-world (circumnavigation) trip following the Afro-Eurasia ride. Expressing a fervent desire to set an example, he aims to promote overland moto-traveling and moto-vlogging against the odds faced by Bangladeshis, including two-wheeler engine displacement limits and overseas travel challenges with their national passport.
