First Intercity Cycle Trip to Sariska

I am Lazy but isn't it the Lazy people who invented the wheel and the bicycle because they didn't like walking or carrying things.

DAY-1

it was 4:30 in the morning, i left the hostel and reach the meeting point ( pink square mall) 20 Kms far away from my hostel , i reached 15 minutes before time and the other riders come 30 minutes after so we start our ride at 6:30 am I would like to introduce the other 4 riders of the trip - lets go alphabetically 1-Aditya Chastha, he has done the Manali - Khardung la ride which is the highest motorable road in the world , he brings his 'MERIDA' for the ride 2-Nikhil C Parnami, also done with Manali - Leh ride and he has planned the path of the ride which was amazinglly awesome, he brings 'Bergamont' 3-Jitendra Ujjwal (Jitu), the furious kind and the puncture boy of the ride, he brings his 'mangoose hybrid' 4-Sorabh Gupta, planner of our ride and the entertainer of the trip, he brings his 'btwin Rockrider' and i am on my 'SCOTT Aspect 670'

AS the ride goes on our first stop is at kanota dam , the place is having really great trails and brings the first puncture of jitu, we have 3 HERO GoPro 5 and 2 portable speakers and lots of electral for energy refilling, after fixing the puncture, we ride again and do the best downhill trails of our route at hanuman mandir, then after that we stop at first meal break at a chai and snack point we eat 'Kadhi Kachori' there after leaving from there, the road after is not as much good and that brings the punture to the jitu's cycle after fixing that, on the same road the view that comes was really breathtaking, both sides of road covered by big mountains and at the roadside there were the date trees looking so astonishing. after a 30-40kms ride,

we took a break at a restourant for lunch there we ate DAL-BATI at that time we were eating like animals and shot a timelapse.

after riding 20 more kms there comes our destination , finally we are at Shri Dev Narayan Temple ,it was located on the little mountain covered by mountains from all the sides

and lake from two sides we reached there at 5:30pm, we take bath, get refreshed and enjoyed the sunset, the sun is going down behind the mountain and the reflection of it

comes in the lake the views was so amazing that it can't explain in words.

Then the friends of Nikhil and Sorabh arrive there on that temple with their car , they were 4 of them , they had brought food , energy drinks , and the two tents for the night. Then here comes the best part of the trip, the night we spent there on the temple was the memory once in a lifetime, we all 9 were sitting on the boundaries of the temple talking about the deep talks of life, looking to the lake it was 9 in the night and A Sky Full of Stars, then comes the delivery boy , actually we order our food from a DHABA , he brings the DAL-BATI again , at that time sitting in the open sky and eating Dal-bati was so amazing, then the "Chacha" (one of the friend of Nikhil) who was start his story, that story can't write here that story was only enjoyable at there only.

DAY-2

good morning in a beautiful tent, we woke up at 6:30 am and packing our stuffs and then after getting ready we do a little photo session there as i was so awaited for this.

they we said bye to the friends of Nikhil and Sorabh, then we leave the temple , can't tell you it was very high tanning sunlight, but still we ride on the Offroad, after 20-30kms we took a small break and have some namkeen, chai and the famous 'KALAKAND' of Alwar it was really like Redbull energy drink for next 30Kms.

after a time without using google maps , we take the wrong path and realize after 4kms then we take U turn from there after around 15kms, there is again a punture in jitu's cycle , then he fixes his cycle after 500m and then we take lunch of DAL-BATI at that time Aditya was so ahead of us, and riding like a pro, non-stop at that tempreture, Nikhil used the bike of that dhaba wala to catch aditya then we do a fantastic lunch there and we have no mood to ride but we need to , then again there is that off road after hanuman mandir then we reach to aditya and a climb of Kanota dam comes after that jitu's cycle again get puntured , this time it can't be repaired , it was a tube burst so the plan was that Jitu bring his cycle to home on bus,

then only 4 of us left now, then there was so much head wind, it was unable to ride at normal speed then there I learn something that was termed as Drafting, we riding exactly behind the one another , one will lead the queue one will sweep , on this way the head wind was only suffered by the leader only, we do this a very nice speed of 26kmph at such a high headwind for around 30Kms nonstop, then we reach at hawa-mehal and ate kulfi at 'Pandit Kulfi'

at that time it was so delicious, and theree comes the call of jitu on nikhil's phone that" i am coming please wait a little there", can't believe he comes there with so less time where we do drafting and he rides alone, finally Jitu is back then again we 5, ride for 2kms and reach raja park and ate 'Paneer Tikka' there after than a juice of pineapple.

Then all get seperated it was most scary part for me when we plan this ride, i need to ride 20kms alone after riding 100kms but it was exactly opposite of my thinking and i was like the speedester at JLN marg and Tonk Road riding at a speed of 40kmph. leaving behind AC-2.

after all it was my most enjoyable cycle trip i ever do, you can name this ride as 'Punture ride' or 'the Sariska trip by cycle' but for all of us it was a"Mast Fun Ride with Nikhil'ji, Sorabh'ji Aditya'ji and Jitu'ji".
