Family mart-Kaggalipura- bannerughatta

On 1^st Sept, me and Gaurav(one of the member of Bangalore-bikers) decided to do the Family mart-Kaggalipura- bannerughatta route. We had decided that We will start at exactly 615.

I started from Ramamurthynagar at 0445 on my Hero Nitrogen (fitted with some local 6 speed gears)
I reached Silk board around 0545. Reached Family mart at 0612 . :) Gaurav was waiting with hi trek4300 . My cycle is nothing on front of that in any angle except Price. (rs 23000 vs rs 2400 :-) ) I was little tired as i have not big trips on cycle earlier (except Big banyan tree) . We started at 625

weather was cool. It was drizzling. Road was good till Kaggalipura. Gaurav was too fast for me.
Reasons were many
- Cycle
- My water bottle which was not fitting properly on my carrier
- Lack of riding practice
- My riding style (I prefer to go slowly in downhills and enjoy the sceneries)

Reached kaggalipura at 0705. stopped there for 10 mins for water
Gaurav warned me that now its going to be tough as we need to climb. :(
Road was too bad as construction work was going on. Gaurav had to wait for me at 2 places as i was lagging behind.

Reached bannerughatta junction at 0810.From there it was easy .
reached JPNagar at 845. From here i had to cycle alone till my House.
I had breakfast and started at 915. I was fully exhausted as i did this whole cycling trip with the help one single cup tea and 1 litre water. My stupidity. :(
I cycled at snails pace and reached home at 1040 via MGRoad, Old Madras road.
I should have taken the same route while going also but didnt do that as i was unaware of correct route.
For Next cycling trip i need to do following things
-Breakfast
-Energy bars
-Good cycle( Or add suspension to the exising one)
-Water bottle carrier
