Mysuru: Imagine covering 3,758 km from Kashmir to Kanyakumari on a bicycle in 10 days. Though, it seems impossible, cyclist Naveen Solanki, a city-based businessman and a resident of V.V. Mohalla has made it possible.
Taking part in ‘Race across India,’ an ultra-endurance cycling competition, Naveen finished the race in 5th place among 15 cyclists who took part from across the globe. The race which started on Oct. 10 from Polo Ground in Srinagar was scheduled to finish on Oct. 22 in Kanyakumari, but Naveen accomplished the feat two-days ahead of the finishing date on Oct. 20 covering the entire distance in 10 days and 15 hours (255 hours).
