its not about the bike...

Profile Information

Birthday
September 19
My current bike model / type:
a "wilier" evasion road bike with 105, a modified single speed road bike, a raleigh elevation 3.0 (customised)(MTB) the raleigh is practically redundant now!
My favourite ride so far:
coming down the ghats, offroading in yeoor, a 180km ride- started at 6:30am and was back by 12:30pm.
A bit about myself:
quite serious about cycling, love exploring new roads.... can spend hours on the bike without thinking about anything whatsoever!

i also learnt how to paraglide and... woah, its amazing!

Ride to Shirdi and back... this is just a heads-up, in order to plan leave, work, family and other commitments... details by mid-Jan, after I return from my Tour de South India... :-)

don't pick up raleigh: bike's aren't very reliable and if anything were to go wrong with it, the after sales service at hypercity is complete crap. firefox doesn't exactly make very nice bikes, not the best equipment. Fomas is your best bet, it fits…

yogesh, then you might want to check on the brake shoes to check if they need to be changed and clean the front suspension.

you must have been going damn fast and over a really bad patch. i went over a big ditch once at around 44km/h and bent my shimano rim. it takes some force to break a rim completely!
December 7, 2009
ouch! and thats a campy rim! that must've hurt.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! A "leisure" segment within a pro race! What does the Mumbai-Pune race feel like? From the inside? Ever wondered? Well, here's your chance to find out first-hand... on your cycle, at your own pace, without having to…

Hi, we met yesterday, how was your ride to Pune ?

Hey, how've you been? It's been a while. Any rides planned?

Andheri East is close. We could ride together. Today, Kaushik and I rode towards Bhiwandi via the Ahmedabad highway. 99.7km. Beautiful road, once you leave the highway. I might ride that way next Sunday. You are welcome to join.

I don't know who has been filling you up on this, but let me tell you, training with me will be mighty boring to you. I only ride on weekends, and you are welcome to join any time. Where do you live?

Even I like humor but that will not ache anyone. Fine no issues

Hey Aman, good that your bones are intact. I suppose these things are bound to happen. You just take them in your stride and not lose your over all focus. Give yourself some time and you will be back in action in no time.

Do you ride rollers at home? This could be a good time to start- riding 2-3 km on streets may seem like too much of a bother, but on rollers, it feels like a pretty neat effort.

H!
That really bad. Seriously, I got goosebumps while reading your msg.
Hope you are fine and your cycle too.
If in case I am coming to India, I will surely ride after you heal from your injuries.
Wish you a speedy recovery.

Good to know! Thanks Aman. I'm hoping I can get decent roads up there. Do you think it's necessary to have a riding partner? Also, I'm going to need to build up a bike. Any ideas on a cool steel Indian road frame? Again, Thanks!

Thanks a lot Aman!

Yes, it is quite awesome to ride through the European countryside, but I am sure it is equally wonderful in India. : )
I started cycling in earnest after I came here as a student last year. So I am planning to get my cycle along, the next time I come Mumbai for my holidays. : )
I have noticed there are many enthusiasts from Mumbaion this forum, so I would love to join you all on a trip! Happy biking till then!
