I have been going on cycling tours with WTH MTB Adventures for last few years and I must say that I have enjoyed all the trips with them. Its like a family get together and we all riders have so much of fun during such trips. MTB cycling is now getting more popular in India and WTH MTB Adventures has done a wonderful job in promoting it . Looking forward for the Spiti ride this year.
I got to know about WTH MTB Adventures thru a friend of mine and I did my first trip for Manali Leh ride with them. I enjoyed the trip to the fullest and had a great time. Everything was well managed right from the stay, food and the services. Since Manali Leh is at high altitude I was a little nervous but once the ride started everything went off very well and we all enjoyed.
I have been running and have done marathons across India and also globally. MTB cycling is something I am excited about and I got an opportunity to ride with WTH MTB Adventures. I have participated in their races and also their cycling tours. They are well managed and everything is taken care of. WTH MTB Adventures is also helping nurture talent and helps and supports the cyclists. I got to ride with Rakesh Rana who is a WTH rider and one of the best riders in India and he helped me to learn more about the bike and also helped me in improving my skills.
I have been an adventure enthusiast and I love traveling and activities like running , trekking and cycling. I have been cycling in some of the tours organized by WTH MTB Adventures and I have had great experiences for a lifetime. The crew is superb , the facilities provided by them are of the best quality and the staff is friendly and always ready to go one step further to meet your demands. The best part has been that they also send a photography team along that clicks these memories for a lifetime. Kudos to the team!
I have been riding since the last decade but I had hardly done some exclusive cycling tours. I happened to go with WTH MTB Adventures on the Jodhpur to Jaisalmer cycling tour and I must say its one of the best rides I have done. It gave me confidence and then I again did a trip with them to Bhutan. I am planning now for the Spiti ride and have already started preparing for it.
My first experience with WTH MTB Adventures has been great. I got a chance to be a part of the MTB race conducted by them and I must say it was well organized and everything was well taken care of. The route mapping, the hydration points, the stay everything was very comfortable. The MTB races are getting more popular in India and organizations like WTH MTB Adventures are helping getting it more popular. Will definitely participate in their upcoming races.
I have been participating in races conducted by WTH MTB Adventures. They have been conducting races like MTB Nainital and their Annual Races. What I like about their races is its completely off road, jungle trails, single tracks. Also I personally was surprised to see the kind of trails Uttarakhand has to offer and there is immense potential. The management is superb , they take extra care of the cyclists and their races are more like a big get together of the MTB community. Keep it on!
Since 2014 I have been cycling with WTH MTB Adventures be it the Manali Leh Ride, ride to Munsiyari in Uttarakhand, Jodhpur to Jaisalmer ride, the cycling tour in Bhutan. It’s a great experience to ride with them and the Manali Leh ride is definitely one of the most cherished rides for me personally. Met a good bunch of cyclists and they have become friends for a lifetime.
