Cycling In Delhi

I travel to come down off the feather-bed of civilization – RL Stevenson I do not remember when the thought of an inter-city bicycle ride first occurred to me. A friend came to drop me at the Tribune Circle in Chandigarh. We bade each other goodbye and from then on, I was on my own. I felt energetic and looked forward to the journey. Finally the day had come, I was living my dream. But as soon as I reached the outskirts of the city, doubt started raising its dreadful head.

A bicycle rally in Delhi to promote the eco-friendly vehicle was organised in New Delhi, one of the most polluted capitals in the world.The 20-km-long rally was organised by the Delhi Cycling Club and a non-government organisation, IDP India.

Some of the initiatives of DMRC are commendable and we must support them whole heartedly.Commuters can rent a cycle at the Pragati Maidan metro station, IP station and Patel Chowk metro station for Rs 10 for every four hours. To encourage more cyclists to take the Delhi Metro trains from its station, DMRC also inaugurated a cycle stand to accommodate 50 cycles.

the best way to ride in Chandni Chowk and most towns and cities in India and Pakistan.

A news worth taking note of in the Hindu about how bicycles are slowly but surely going out of style in China. It surely makes us sit up and think 'what IS development'. Aren't we moving towards more wastage.
