The bicycle rally went around Puducherry through the main roads taking a route that covered the periphery of the coastal town right from Muthialpet to Mudaliarpet through East Coast Road and returning to Raj Nivas.
Devansh Yadav, IAS probationer who joined the cycle rally, remarked that it was a first of its kind experience for him.
