Biking
               
During my 2 years stay at Jamshedpur, I and my friends did lots of biking. We just loved it and the place provided many great places to visit also.

The most memorable trip was this one : Jamshedpur - Ranchi - Rajrappa - Netarhat - back to Jamshedpur. What a trip it was! I and my friends started from Tata Steel's G.T.Hostel 1 in the early winter morning of 23rd Jan 1998. We went to Ranchi (120 kms), then to Rajrappa (90 kms from Ranchi) and back to Ranchi at night for rest. Next day we went to Netarhat (160 kms from Ranchi) and spent the night there. On the third and final day, we came back to Jamshedpur a 3 AM in the night! We covered more than 800 kms.

We braved everything from express highways to muddy village roads, dense winter fogs and unusual rains; we also had high speed drives to zero visibility night drive!!! Thats why we call this one as the mother of all trips!

On the Jsr - Ranchi highway - morning 9 AM At Ranchi - taking a break!
We started 6 AM in the morning. The Jampot - Ranchi highway was totally desolate. We were 13 people on 7 bikes, all alone on the highway! lol We reached Ranchi by 10 AM. And parked ourselves out here (its called GLB Complex or whatever). The reason : On the first floor of this complex is a veg. restaurant called "Kaveri"! God! that was such a lovely place. A must go place if one plans to go to Ranchi.
 
   
At the Rajrappa temple Rajrappa Temple
Rajrappa temple is quite famous and SC's story about the rock door made us reach this place before evening. God knows how madly we drove! Rajrappa temple is quite beautiful. It is evening and we are about to return to Ranchi!
