Effective Group Riding

Samim is going to have a session on effective group riding.


Time: 6:30am
Place: Intersection of Ring Road and Kanakpura road (the famous Family Mart Junction)
When: Sunday, 21 Dec 08

come in biking gear, all set for a 1.5 hour ride on the NICE road. Any bicycle will do


P.O.A – Meet up at 6:30am. Quick theory session (10 – 15 mins) and then its all on the bike.

To the few who dont know Samim

  • If there is anyone around here who we can expect to see in the Tour de France, its him.
  • he ran all the way to Mumbai (all 1100 km of it) and then cycled back to speak out against global warming.
  • races for a prominent racing team in Bangalore.
  • cycles to Mysore and back – for fun :)
  • and more…

all in all one of our most solid road bikers yet.

As usual – please do leave a comment if you are interested in this with some contact info if we need to change plans.

  • Anand Saha on 17 Dec 11:22

    Do you guys record the sessions? If yes, you can put the audio/video online. I live in Pune.

  • modi on 17 Dec 11:32

    Am in....

  • Vijay on 17 Dec 16:02

    The start point for this is over 25kms from where I live (Blr-North). it would be nice to have a more central location like Cubbon Park so that people from all over Bangalore can participate.

  • Jas on 17 Dec 17:20

    I'll be there :)

  • Manju Mysore on 17 Dec 18:36

    This is cool!!! will be there. Agree with Anand, if we can record the session, will be good for folks outside Bengaluru.

  • chandrakant on 17 Dec 20:08

    I will be there....

  • ROhan Kini on 17 Dec 23:08

    Anand - it would be nice to record this. Not sure how.
    Vijay - good point. Next time we need to be a little more location sensitive. I hope you can make it this time though.
    Manju - interested in recording it ? ;)

  • Karthik on 18 Dec 09:47

    I'm interested.

  • Manju Mysore on 18 Dec 10:37

    Hello Rohan, I can volunteer to record the event, however, I do not have a digital recorder. I can do it on my the digital camera, the video quality is not the best! I'll check around to see if I can bum a digital recorder for a day. If I can, I'll do it. Manju

  • Raghavendra BK on 19 Dec 10:36

    Excellent!! I am thrilled for two reasons: 1. I am going for a part tour in TFN this thurssday and a session like this would definitely help me. 2. The meeting point is less than 1 km from my home :-) Count me in.
