Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Did a short 50km ride this morning; got caught in rains and more than half of the ride was in heavy downpour.

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Cycled to the top of the hill that I had abandoned mid way last week. It was the first time I felt like I should stop cycling and push it up the hill. Resisted that urge some how.
Usual nice scenery on the way except some people burning clothes and other personal artefacts at the top. Came home and got to know from mom that it's a place famous for black magic and voodoo.
Hope it's not too late, BRB gotta take bath in ganga-jal now.

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Did the BRM 200 recently. It was high time that I got back on the saddle since monsoon had set in I had kept the roadie parked inside the house. This ride was a good way to make sure I start riding.

The ride was tiring to be honest but well worth it.

Good Start

So the lower with padding showed up yesterday and this forum got me to try this. A first. Rode to this place I didn't know existed till 30 mins before I left. Sanjay Van.

From empty early morning roads to this beautiful mini-forest in the middle of the city. So good.

Thank you everyone on this forum, I wouldn't have done this without the inspiration from here. I'm glad I did.

PS: special shout out to @promit who dropped in on short notice to help me pick the bike and accessories. Some much needed guidance. Cheers man, and there's a standing rain-check on our meal

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Joined some friends and others, along with the good folks at @I_Am_Gurgaon for a little spin around town. Sort of a nod to world car-free day. For the people in Gurgaon you may know about Iamgurgaon. The people behind Aravali Bio Diversity, and other eco-restoration projects as well as cycle lanes/tracks in around the Gaon. The lady behind it is an avid cyclist herself.

Lovely shots Ankit. Good to see you exploring around and putting your new bike through its paces. Look forward to catching up with you soon for a ride or otherwise. Cheers!

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Did a 60km ride to NDA Gate from Pashan, Chandni chowk side and then went to Someshwar Temple in Baner along with 2 other friends. Sharing some pics of the ride.

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

How in the name if god did you tan so much in just 60 kms?!?! It is insane!

Not very good for your skin as well. Happened to me once and my skin started peeling off giving me sleepless nights.

Wait is that mud lol!

Amol is right here Red Liner, its not the sun burn/tan but the muck and dirt from the wet Pune roads that my front tyres without mud guards were merrily splashing on my legs.

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Hi All, I am not a cyclist but showing up here for another reason. Mods, please delete this post or move this to a different thread as appropriate.

I happened to lose my Tata Nexon XZ+ key fob on ECR road (Chennai, Tamil Nadu) on 19/9/2021 (Sunday) around 4 - 5pm exactly on the main road near Praathna Theater. When I went back to the spot in search of the key, a road side shop guy in that place said that someone who came in a premium cycle picked it up and went. In case that was picked up by anyone here in this forum in the goodwill of returning it to the owner, please send me a private message here in team-bhp or call me on +91 9710421185.

Re: Post pictures of your Bicycle on day trips here!

Do you guys do scouting in car before taking your cycle there? I am seriously thinking of doing that and make notes. Its 3 times now I had to take U-turn and head back because the road was too difficult to ride due to potholes, mud, road work and what not.
