Last week, we set out for an early morning cycling ride with one simple goal: ride together. The funny part? We started with confusion — Alandi, Tulapur, or Dagdusheth Ganpati? 😄 Different ideas, same spirit. Riders: Ravindra Thorat (me), Suraj Bhosale, Satish, Praful Nikode, Yogesh Gonjari, Sunil Tailor Start: 6:30 AM from Wagholi Route: Wagholi → Lohegaon → Vishrantwadi → Alandi → Markal → Tulapur → Lonikand → Wagholi After ~23 km, we stopped for tea and breakfast at Siddhivinayak Vadewale, Charoli Phata — a much-needed recharge before pushing ahead. From there, we reached Alandi, soaked in the peaceful vibes, and wrapped up a quick photo session before continuing the loop. This ride wasn’t about speed or distance. It was about consistency, friendship, early starts, and choosing movement over excuses. Small rides like these build discipline, clarity, and great memories. If you’re thinking about starting weekend rides with friends — start small, start early, and just start. The rest figures itself out.
