Healthy Bangaloreans might go extinct by 2020

 MYSORE: Bangalore will not have any healthy people left in 15 years if the government fails to arrest soaring pollution levels in both urban and rural levels. This grim warning came from Vision Group 2020, a panel comprising of eminent personalities from the state, constituted for making Karnataka a developed state.

Cycling in Bangalore!!

How many of you believe that

2. Cycling in Bangalore is possible?
3. You are faster on you cycle than you car in Bangalore?

Let me share my view on these :

Tour of Nilgiris

www.tourofnilgiris.com
The Tour of Nilgiris is a 7 day, 910 km bicycle ride across the famed Nilgiri mountain range in South India. The Tour of Nilgiris takes off from Bangalore on 25 December 2008 and ends on 1 January 2009.

It is a tour and not a race. The Tour of Nilgiris is the outcome of the desire of a very small group of cycling enthusiasts in Bangalore to create a challenging, interesting and educative ride for them.

Pune - Cycle Track

ameysun - 11-NOV-2008

I have clicked a few snaps on Pune -Satara road between KK market signal and Big Bazzar on 11 Nov 2008 (9.00 - 9.30 AM). The entire stretch on both sides of the BRT is almost complete. Though I have taken snaps on the way to swargate the situation is more or less the same on either sides of cycle track.

What will you prefer: Road over river or something like the Thames Valley Cycle Path
