Charu Gupta : I'm an avid traveler! I live in Pune city but every chance I get, I get on my pulsar and take off!!!Journey from Lavasa to Mumbai: on a cycle!!!

Friday, May 7th, 2010

A ride to Mumbai from Lavasa is usual….but wait a minute…!!! Journey on a cycle?!?! Now that sounds challenging!!!

Renuka Jhakar, a communication management trainee at SIMC, started her journey at 6.30 am from Lavasa. An uncommon journey, she hitched a ride with a couple of tempos then caught a rickshaw to make it in time for the Pragati to Lonavala.

From Lonavala she got on her cycle and headed straight towards her friends house on Yari Road. She set her camera so as to capture all the riding moments till Mumbai.

At 6.30 pm she reached Sion. Just a few shops and stops to ask for directions set her back a bit. Although she wasn’t too tired, she set back on the journey to Pune in a Volvo.

Check out the snaps that she took at every stop!!!
