Ooty, officially known as Udhagamandalam is one trip that everyone should take in their lifetime. 
With Nilgiris on the sides, the lush green valleys, and roads that are known as the Gateway to heaven, riding in Ooty is every Indian cyclist's dream ride!

This week on Hit The Road: Explorer Edition, host Rohan Thakar chats with Mumbai-based cyclists Anirudh Shenoy, Sandeep Pillai, and Veer Salvi who made Ooty as their base in the month of February 2021 and explored the places around this pristine Nilgiri region of Tamil Nadu.

From tea plantations, to coffee and cocoa, there's lot that you can explore in Ooty. 

Some points to keep in mind for touring Ooty

1) Clothing: Fleece jackets, full-length winter gloves, rain gear, 3-4 sets of biking clothes, 1 extra pair of clothing
2) Training: The terrain is hilly, with long elevation gains and steep descents. Hill Training is a must. Also, One needs to train with a fully loaded bike with panniers in order to simulated the riding conditions.
3) Food packets, battery packs, extra tube, spares, repair kit are highly recommended.

This week on Hit The Road: Explorer Edition, host Rohan Thakar is joined by an amazing bunch of cyclists (Devansh Alijar, Gaurav Ranka, Sarvesh Mathi, Shikhar Agarwal) who wanted to explore India like never before!

A ride that started from Kashmir took these 4 friends to go in the depths of the country giving them not just an adrenaline rush but also humbling them with the experience of climbing ghats, getting help from the unknown, tasting the local delicacies whose flavours changed every 200KMs, getting mindblown by the natural wonders of India, and the respect that they earned after riding 5000 Kilometers completing their journey in Kanyakumari, is beyond words!

Ever wondered what India has to offer?
