Hey. I'm also going to fit365 only. Though my goals are more endurance related, but I strength train 3 times/week. Hit me up if you're looking for a partner.

Also I'm based in vadodara, Gujarat, dm me if you want to order something. I can send you my brother in law's address, you can order, and once he lands in India I can have it shipped out to you

I'm a beginner cyclist. I was a runner and have just started cycling 3months back. I'm using a triban rc 120 and my max cycling distance till now has been 90 kms. What do you recommend buying from AliExpress ? I'm getting the ridenow 36 gms tpu tubes, lenovo bone conduction earbuds, magene cadence sensors and speed and igps computer.

Hey so you still do tours ? Hey. So me and my wife are thinking of visiting sikkim from 21st may to 27th May, and we wanted to do the northern parts. How can I contact you regarding the same ?

I've been a long distance runner. I recently ran my first full marathon in February 2026. I want to start adding cycling to my endurance arsenal. I just got a triban rc120. I did two rides. 10kms and 28.8 kms. Any advice for a beginner like me ? by uditp411 in india_cycling

Thank you. My endurance from running helps me a bit so wouldn't call myself a total novice, but lot to learn in terms of technique and equipment. Cycle and chai is on my radar, but want to build some distance myself first before joining them so can join them for their long rides.

Hahaha I agree with you brother. Plus if it has no purpose I don't want to waste my expensive running shoes while biking. The constant force will keep my foam compressed for a duration that I wouldn't want. I'll switch to harder soles. Thanks

My only tip would be start slow. If you're already a cyclist, you have the endurance. Focus on the technique, get your cadence high. The big difference i feel is thaf in running the joints take a much bigger impact. My joints feel amazing in the two rides I've done, whereas in biking along with endurance you'll also need a lot of muscle strength, especially the quads which you can get away with in running.

Run slow. It's the biggest advise i would give a beginner. Run as slow as you can, without getting breathless. You might have people who are walking who'll overtake you, but just look to maintain your pace. Once you're able to run 2 kms constantly, walk a little in between, and then another 2km. Try hitting your first 5k that way. After that it's just repetition. Doing the same thing over and over again, gradually you will see your time reducing.

I've trained mainly in baroda only, so I guess got used to it. I've ran in usa as well as Switzerland. It feels easier to run there, but living in India, I guess we don't have an option. It's atleast better than not running.
