Rode a cycle after almost 13 years. The one before 13 years was also a just few 100 meters. There was a cycle which was collecting dust and I gave it to service and he charged me a bumper. It was almost like servicing a two wheeler. He had changed two tires and tubes. The service charge alone was 700 Rs.
I was actually worried about cycling back home as there is a subway and some years back I was not able cycle the uphill part of the subway. The other scary part was people constantly honking behind us. I was looking for a rear view mirror habitually and there was none.
Whenever I had to turn I was looking for the indicator switch and few times I tried to accelerate by throttling the right handle.
So it took me sometime to adjust to basic cycle.
The good part is I was able to do the slope easily than I had feared. So its a little comfort that there is some fitness left in me.
But riding cycle in Chennai roads would not be a pleasant experience.
