Bangalore
The garden city, set dosa, the largest population Kannada speaking Tamils, Malleshwaram, MG, Kemp Fort, Software, no water, pubs, Vidhan Soudha, Vivesvaraya, spanking clean, sweet, relaxed, greatest weather. Techies who know the right rules to flirt. Silicon valley of India. But how MNCs, outsourcing and corporate culture is shaping the infrastructure of the city?

Wink Cycling in Bangalore

Some observations :
  • People who drive in Bangalore have no respect for cyclists.
  • The assumption is that the only reason you’re on a cycle is because you can’t afford a bike.
  • Traffic is so dangerous for slow-movers like cyclists.
  • People find it funny to see a guy riding a cycle listening to his while most people are in formals on bikes.
  • When most people my age are planning to buy a car, mom is wondering why I’m buying a cycle.
  • It takes 45 min to travel the 8 km on cycle, just 10-15 min more than my bike (mainly because of the traffic).
  • After I reach office, I feel energised and have noticed a positive effect in the concentration at work.
  • No traffic cop trouble. They never bother cyclists.
  • It’s dangerous to be on a cycle at night. It doesn’t have a headlight.
  • Never park your cycle just about anywhere, it’ll easily get stolen.
  • I save on petrol.
  • I feel like I save an hour everyday because I don’t need to exercise separately now.
  • Cycling is fun.
  • 8 km is turning out to be easy now.
