“I actually hated cycling because I didn’t know how to cycle. That was until Class 3 when my father taught me to cycle for daily chores like going to the nearby shop, vegetable market and so on. The moment I pedalled without anyone’s help, I felt that rush of adrenaline and joy in my body. I have never felt that emotion before. I like cycling through multiple routes and some times, I consider cycling long distances as a mission. One such route is the Ghat road towards Kondapalli fort which is fun to ride along, with a good amount of breeze and beautiful landscape. Another route that I like is the Prakasam Barrage, where I get a nice view of the river. One of the reasons why I like the Kondapalli route, perhaps more than any other place, is because of a ride my friend and I went on. We intended to go to Kondapalli Fort but ended up 2 kilometres away in a nearby village. We cycled more than 20 kilometres that day. It was fun and I was surprised that I wasn’t tired at the end of the day, though it was compensated with beatings from my father back home.”
