The rally, which was flagged off at Mangala Stadium, passed through Lady Hill Circle, Lal Bagh, PVS Buildings, Bunts Hostel Circle, St. Agnes Institutions and M.G. Road before culminating at the start venue. Samyuktha, who rode confidently with WERC’s Harniish Raj, was the centre of attraction. A few cyclists, including Mr. Periera and Gururaj Krishnamurthy, joined the rally soon after completing their 400 km Mangaluru-Kumta-Mangaluru Brevet early in the morning.
