LCGA - Life Cycling Green Association
Lifecycling Green was established with name of LIFECYCLE GUJARAT(in year 2010) the aim of propagating a HEALTHY LIFESTYLE amongst the people of Surat and the youngsters in general, through the JOY OF RIDING A BICYCLE. It was founded by 3 young men of Surat who after a long experience of cycling through thousands of kilometers in the last 2 years, felt that th
e idea and benefits of cycling should be passed to the people of their city. The 3 founders are namely Yogesh Patel, Vinay Kuperkar (businessmen) & Jignesh Modi, an Architect, who formed this Group after a very tough but vibrant cycling expedition in July 2010 from LEH to KARGIL covering over 500 kms in 9 days through numerous mountain passes with temperatures going down to 2 degrees centigrade and a hostile terrain. Cycling has numerous benefits, the MAJOR 5 being-
A FIT LIFESTYLE. SENSE OF ADVENTURE & FUN. JOY OF ENJOYING NATURE IN A NATURAL WAY. Thus, LIFECYCLE GUJARAT was born on 3rd October 2010 with its first ride from SVNIT TO DUMAS and back, a distance of 30 kms with over 35 paricipants, ranging from age 8 yrs to oldest being 72 years young !! Since that first day, every Sunday a trip is organized for distance ranging up to 70 km (round trip) and the strength of participants has grown to over 400 members now in such a short period.(6th Dec,2014)
