With my travel schedule and summer heat, I had not done a 100 Km ride for 5 months after the Republic Ride. I was looking for a good one when I saw the planned ride to a Solar Power Plant just beyond the Narsapur forest. I had heard about the forest and the scenic ride though it. So, a brand new route through a forest, visiting a power plant and a 100 Km ride. Too good to miss.
I started riding from my home at 4:30 AM and reached back home at 1 PM covering 117 Km. A long break for breakfast followed by an even longer break at the solar plant made it a leisure ride. But this was compensated by meeting new Hyderabad riders! The cycling culture is certainly catching up. And a good way to start the biking season in my city this year!
