Sakleshpur - a paradise to pedal

I always wished to pedal in the most scenic and greenery terrain, and one of the places was Sakleshpur. Cool breeze, slight drizzle and gigantic mountains around which motivates.

Sakleshpur, planned on 24th June, the accommodation, bicycle transport were all taken care by home stay called Off-road with collaboration with ICycle.

I under estimated the trip by distance without the type of terrain. It was nice event organised, pedalling a distance nearly 100km in that terrain is a challenge.

coming to the details - we started come where near chanaraypatna, where our cycles were transported. Before reaching the starting point we had some nice breakfast on the way. Before starting get ourselves geared up....

A team 

fixing our gears, I mean cycles


We started with full energy and enthu. It was a highway, and started to cruise, enjoying the nice breeze and the weather was cool.

The route which we took is C. Patna ➡ Holenarsipura ➡ Arakalgod ➡ Mallipatna ➡ Kodlipet ➡ Magilu ➡ Nidigere ➡ Echalapura ➡ OffrOad.

Arakalgod is the place where we had the most waited lunch. It was just amazing after having straight head headwind which was so strong even in downhill pedalling was necessary.

A well deserved lunch after battling with headwind to move on






Finally the resting place
