Kanakpura exploratory - 13 Apr 2008

A very nice short ride.
We biked a distance of around 40Kms from the starting point (Family Mart, Kanakpura Road)

Route
  • Go straight on Kanakpura road until you see a sign board for Trans Indus, around 9 Km from Family Mart.
  • Take a right to get onto village roads.
  • Ride on till BGS international and take a left.
  • From this point on the area has loads of trails that can be explored.
    We just took one trail and went till a small temple on a hillock (fantastic climb)

Just two punctures. Not bad. Luckily we were equipped.
Its getting hotter these days. Need to make sure we carry water even for the shorter rides !

The ride was sealed with a fantastic breakfast at a fellow bikers place. Thank you Madhu. Nothing like steaming Idly-dosa-coffee/tea after a nice ride.

    I had cycled up a bit further ahead from family mart by 6.05am as i thought that you guys might have left already. I thought ill peddle for some time and head back. But then i realised that in the haste to reach in time, i had forgot to pick my purse (i had a late night yesterday and had decided to ride at 5.30am). The air pressure was also bad. Lesson of the day: Never set out for a ride unless without proper cycle checking and proper checkist. And dont forget to add a wallet check to the checklist. Sad. Shd make it next time. However glad to hear that we have a good trail to the list. btw. I saw you guyz pass on my way back. You guyz were late !!
