IAS Cycle Wari

Event Rules & Cyclist Etiquette

Important guidelines for a safe and enjoyable IAS Cycle Wari.

Only those capable of riding at speeds above 16 km/hr are advised to participate.
The total distance to be completed in one day is approximately 250 km from Dehu, 230 km from Nigdi, and 200 km from Hadapsar. Only those confident in completing the ride should participate.
Participants who wish to ride both ways can do so as a "Self-Supported" return journey to Pune. You can book a one-way ride without a truck ticket.
Participants riding both ways need to practice riding against headwinds, as strong headwinds are expected on the return journey.
Kids are allowed (at the parent's responsibility) only if the parent has registered and is riding alongside the kids.

Helmet (You won’t be allowed to ride without a Helmet).
Reflective jacket.
Headlights and taillights are a must. It will be good if you have power backups (power banks).
Puncture kit with at least 2 extra tubes.
