Who is Zenith Irfan?
Zenith’s journey began as a tribute to her father’s aspirations and has evolved into a pioneering role in Pakistan’s motorcycling community. Her solo adventures have captivated many, and she has meticulously documented her travels, sharing her experiences and inspiring others. In a recent Instagram video, Zenith poignantly reflected on the transformative power of motorbiking, stating, “The day I started riding motorcycles was the day EVERYTHING CHANGED.” Her dedication has earned her national recognition and the Pride of Pakistan award.
Zenith’s remarkable journey, spanning 50,000 kilometers across Pakistan, was immortalized in the biographical film “Motorcycle Girl.” She has also hosted a travel show and continues to share her “true raw stories” from the road.
In an interview with ABC News, Zenith revealed that her mother played a crucial role in encouraging her to live out her father’s dream and carry on his legacy. She also shared with AFAR magazine that although her family is originally from Pakistan, they moved to the UAE in the 1960s, where Zenith was born in Sharjah. The family returned to Lahore when she was 12, an experience that brought its own challenges and culture shock.
