IN THE SPOTLIGHT: MAYUR JAIN FROM MUMBAI

Everymonth I intend to bring a spotlight on one cyclist from around the world. I will introduce him/her briefly by talking about their major accomplishments and do a rapid fire question and answer segment.

This month I am covering Mayur Jain, a midlife cyclist from Mumbai. He is an author of a self-help book ‘HI FIVE!’ published worldwide in the year 2020 and available online on amazon.in and other portals. The book helps the reader to list down life goals and draw a route map on how to reach there. I have read the book and it has personally helped me to clearly envision my future plans. Hence, I strongly recommend it to all the readers of this blog. Moreover, all sales proceeds from the book goes to charity.

VALENTINE’S DAY CYCLE RIDE WITH VELOCITI CAFE

Will you be my Valentine? I asked. Yes! She promptly replied and off…we went for a ride with Velociti Cafe.

A Valentine is a sweetheart – a special someone who receives attention on Valentine’s Day. But for a cyclist, his /her bike is that special someone. A bicycle is ever-ready to give company, share love and joy. So practically, for a cyclist everyday is Valentine’s Day because he/she has the greatest gift ever – a bicycle.
