In the early years, the members would recruit anyone whom they spot riding a Bullet on the road. According to Manish Kothari, another member, "The family has grown over the years and now has 300 bikers." However, the club has a more formal enrollment procedure now.

Roadshakers organises a number of events throughout the year. On weekends, the bikers travel to nearby spots such as Bhandardara, Rajmachi, Pahuna Dam, Hedvi, Mahabaleshwar and Alibag. They organise a yearly eventu00a0 called Riders Mania, during which they explore new destination every time.

Roadshakers member Baljeet Singh Kochhar feels the club is more than a family to him. "This club gave me back my friends, with whom I had lost touch after college. Come what may, we meet every week without fail. We simply love it."

Sohail Khanna, a college student, succinctly explains the spirit of the club when he says, "Roadshakers is all about passion and adventure."
