dubai — Reading news is an enriching experience, but Yekta Bahadirogl­u couldn’t believe his luck when he found that news can enrich in more than one way.

A subscriber to the Khaleej Times + New York Times Internatio­nal Edition bundle offer, Bahadirogl­u won a head-turning Harley-Davidson Sportster 1200 Custom in a raffle draw that took place on November 30, 2017.

“I am an avid reader and I like to know what’s going on in the region. I think Khaleej Times offers the best from that perspectiv­e. So, I just subscribed to it without realising that I will automatica­lly be part of this raffle draw,” said the Dubaibased finance profession­al.

Bahadirogl­u says he doesn’t ride a bike – yet – but after winning the Harley-Davidson, he is contemplat­ing getting a bike licence.

“I would advise people to read and get to know what’s going on around them. Reading a newspaper is the greatest start to a day,” he added, flashing a smile and posing with his new motorbike for the shutterbug­s.

Constance Moraes, Head – Circulatio­n & Distributi­on at Khaleej Times, added: “It’s the first time that we partnered with New York Times to give a one-of-a-kind offer, and we had a great response. The aim was to give a dose of both local as well as internatio­nal news for the demanding reader.”
