Lookingâu00c2u0080u00c2u0088for a fun activity to do this weekend without having to exit the confines of the city? Sign up for a leisurely bicycle ride through Aarey Colony, one that will leave you energised to deal with the week ahead. Organised by travel group Mumbai Rangers, this ride is held every weekend post the monsoon, from October until June. "The group is asked to assemble outside the Oberoi Mall, near which we have a godown where we keep our bicycles. As of now, we can accommodate 22 riders. Once everybody has picked out their ride, we have a 20-minute briefing session before setting out," says founder Amit Bhadouria, adding that the group will be accompanied by a lead, co-lead and a mechanic.

While cycling is the highlight of the trip, there will also be a few stops along the way. "The first halt will act as an icebreaker, where we will play a few games. The second stop will be at a beautiful little butterfly garden in the area. The third and final pit stop will be by the banks of a lake, where everyone can relax for a bit before heading back," shares Bhadouria. And after all the cycling, the famished group can have a south Indian breakfast at an Udupi restaurant in the neighbourhood.
