[Parag Patankar]

Bangalore Bicycling School, Cubbon Park Session, Sunday 3 Aug 2025

A special Sunday filled with inspiration, milestones, and a cool breeze.

Trainers : Junaid, Naga Prakash, Vinay

Newbies :

Rekita – Joined by her supportive mom, who works at the Visvesvaraya Museum, Rekita was another star of the day. She was able to get her balance on the very first day! That’s no small feat. With some practice to steady her movement on the seat, she’s set for a strong journey ahead. Congratulations!

Ongoing Learners:

Bharat – Found scooting challenging today and will need more focused effort and regular practice to build his balance. Don’t give up — progress is always one step away.

Divya – Returning after a confident start last week, Divya reaffirmed her progress by riding independently and smoothly. Later, her husband joined in for support and encouragement, making the session even more heartwarming!

Muskan - Muskan's 2nd class. She has improved on scooting and was able to pedal downhill. Uphill, she is struggling but sure will overcome in next class.

Ranita – Needs to continue practicing in upcoming sessions to regain balance and confidence.

Richa - Continued with her persistent and smiling determination to scoot.

Sanivka - The little star, she was accompanied by her mother who also cycled along with Sanvika. She is now comfortable in pedaling, however needs bit focus on speed control.

Shreya - Came with her cycle and rode all over.

Salma : An outstanding achievement today! After a few sessions of scooting, Salma finally managed to pedal and balance all on her own. Even she found it unbelievable — and rightly so!

Tessa – A home maker who had long pending dream to learn cycling, came to learn based on the feedback received from her friend (a previous student of BBS). She struggled due to cycle height issues initially, but got comfortable. Needs more practice on scooting. Despite initial skepticism, she began scooting and was steadily getting the hang of it. Great determination — keep going, Tessa!

**Keep pedaling and see you next weekend! 🚴‍♂️🌿**
