The experience

You start at Fateh Sagar Lake, ringed by mountains on three sides, and ride out through the country roads that connect Udaipur's villages. The route takes you past working farmland where you stop to meet farmers and see how they work the land. The kind of interaction that makes the difference between passing through a place and understanding it. Badi Lake sits hidden beyond the villages, and from the Bahubali Hills above it you can see the whole lake spread out below. The bicycles are geared and fitted with good helmets, and a captain who knows the route rides with you while an escort follows the group on foot.

The ride loops back along the Rani Road, a peaceful stretch that runs beside Fateh Sagar Lake where you'll see locals jogging, walking and doing yoga in the early morning calm. Bottled water and light refreshments are provided during the ride, so you're not managing hunger or thirst on top of the cycling. The whole loop takes three hours and suits all fitness levels. The pace is energetic but not punishing, and the guide speaks English so the commentary is clear as you go.
