Tour De Shivapuri Cycling

 

Tour De Shivapuri Cycling was our yearly cycling event done in the trails of the northern side hill of Kathmandu valley in Shivapuri National Park. The courses are the adventure, natural and peaceful. Nepal is a land of ecological extreme from north to south as we know that the north of part life the Himalayan ranges cover 2400km. Nagarjuna Shivapuri National Park is the ninth national park in Nepal, and it was established in 2002. Shivapuri is located in the country’s mid-hills on the northern fringe of the Kathmandu valley. Shivapuri Peak of 2732 m altitude. It is the viewpoint of Kathmandu valley, Nuwakot and Sindupalchowk.

In 2019 the raconteur adventure team plan for doing the Tour De Shivapuri cycling event. Our team went to Shivapuri National Park for research. Raconteur Adventure team took a Honda XR bike and start our ride from Mulpani, Jagadol, Budhanilkantha via Muhan Pokhari, Trebhir, Mulkharka, Sundarijal and end at Gokarna. The trails were adventures with downhill and uphill rides for both cycle and motorcycle. A visitor must pay an entry fee at the Muhanpokhari gate before entering the National park.   Visitors are not allowed to through waste during the trails. If anyone finds the national park, they will see the visitor.

As we know that Shivapuri National Park is the homestay of wild animals and birds. We found various birds and their melody whispering sound in our ride. Nature is just unique, and the view from Tarebhir is mind-blowing. The trails from Mauhan Poakhari to Mulkharka is suitable for cycling hiking. We can do a canopy hike into the woods. Finally, we decided to do the Tour De Shivapuri cycling event from our Raconteur Adventure company.

Our team fixed a date for the event on June 11, 2019, for Tour De Shivapuri cycling. We were 17 riders and met all the riders at Jgadol, Gokarna. Raconteur team greets the rider. After having black tea, we start our ride around 7 am. After two hours of ride, our team reached Muhanpokhari. We buy the entry ticket for Shivapuri Nationa Park entry. The rider rest for 20 minutes to drink water and fruits. They took the group photos. Around 11 AM, our team started our ride, and it was a medium uphill ride. We found a plain trail after one hours ride. A diversion point divided the track into two-track our left turn track will take us to Nagi Gumba, and then straight east way take us to Tarebhir. The trails were just planned, and it was easy for us to ride in the tracks. After 30mminutes, we found our lunch station. All the riders were hungry, and the Tarebhir hotel served with beaten rice, potato, tomato pickle, omelette, black tea. The hotel room was facing south face viewing to Kathmandu valley. Besides that, we order local buff suki & chicken fry, which mouth-watering. Some of the riders drink local drinks.

I want to enjoy nature, so I decide to go for a short one-hour hike to Tarebhir. The trails included an uphill track with trees and bushes of rhododendron flowers. The mighty Tarebhir was looking just awesome. I saw many birds in the canopy jungle hike to Tarebhir. We found many kinds of vegetation in Shivapuri National Park. It is the nearest National Park in Kathmandu valley. I breathe fresh air into the woods with amazing views of nature inside the forest: big trees, bushes, and many more. I came back, and our team were getting ready for the trip. Some were checking the tyre, and some were adjusting the seat.

The trail was a bit light uphill in the ridge of the national park. We have Kathmandu valley views on our good and left sides. We have an intense forest with greenery and big trees. Our team enjoyed the ride I was in last, and Nitesh’s brother led the team. Suddenly, the significant rain started to fall. I could not see the trails due to heavy rain. The course was filled with water flow, and it looked like a flood, but all the riders dnt stop and ride the cycle. It was one of the memorable cyclings for us. The team was cycling in the canopy trails under the shade of trees and bushes—the ride was entirely downhill after riding one hours ride for Trebhir. Our team has different brands of cycle Trek, Format, Cube, Trinx etc.; some have both suspension cycles, some were hardtails. We four were at last, and the other was at first and finally rain stop, and we all meet at the Mulkharka and having black tea and biscuit. Seeing our adventure video in GoPro, it was worth.

4WH jeep comes to Mulkhara, and we put all our cycles in the 4WH jeep. We all were tired because we did intense cycling, which was worth it and memorable. Our team went hiking for 1 hour from Mulkhara to Sundarijal bus park. Finally, our trip ended with memories of adventure cycling Tour De Shivapuri into the woods.
