Some of us can live differently can we not?
here is an article to support some of us who like to cycle our way around. It is difficult in Mumbai, agreed, but many examples like Mulund -Andheri, Andheri-Powai …are difficult places – but people are doing it.

I stay 2kms from office..and to do this. Primarily for health/lifestyle reasons and not for frugality.

2kms you should walk :). What is wrong in being frugal or admitting to it? Thinking of starting a series on frugal living…

ah,btw there is nothing frugal about the new generation of yuppie cyclists. the cycles costs upwards of 10,000 rs and touch 25000 easily. it is a cool thing rather a money saving tactic.i am guilty of it personally,i admit -but i usually dont spend on eating out etc.we all have our weaknesses.

read ‘who judges you’ again? why should u explain to me that u have a bike? I have a Trek and am not apologetic. If people who have big powerful cars and abuse the environment, why should people who bike? And how is a 30k bicycle expensive? If it save 5k of petrol the payback is 6 months. So enjoy your bicycling. Are u a part of cyclist.in or bikeszone.com or both?
