CYCLING @ CHENNAI with the city's new 'Bicycle' themed restaurant
*************************************************

Ciclo Cafe, at Kotturpuram, is one of Chennai’s newest restaurants with its central theme being the bicycle!

The decor is tastefully designed with bicycles and everything about bicycles neatly intertwined into it. Ciclo Cafe’s food is standard European fare and includes a selection of desserts and coffees. The food tastes good and the place looks extremely appealing and chic.

What sets Ciclo Cafe apart though is the strong focus on cycling which includes a bicycle shop that is part of the restaurant. You can buy or hire cycles from Ciclo Cafe’s bicycle shop along with other essential cycling gear. Rentals during weekdays and weekends are INR 450 and INR 550, respectively. If you are hiring bicycles here, bicycle headgear (helmets) is also available for safe rides.

So you can now get a nice meal and then, set out to burn some calories while you explore places in and around Chennai on your bicycle!

'KARAGA' FESTIVAL 2015 - 'CHAITRA PURNIMA'
----------------------------------------------------------------
ROUTE TAKEN BY THE 'KARAGA':
--------------------------------------------
The priest who carries the ‘Karaga’ comes dancing out of the temple at around 12:30 am surrounded by hundreds of sword-wielding ‘Veerakumaras’ chanting “Govinda Govinda”

The ‘Karaga’ passes through the following places:
Thigalarpet (the Karaga’s capital), Gopalakrishna Swamy Temple, Anjaneya Swamy Temple in Ulsoorpet, Prasanna Gangadareshwara Temple in Nagarthpet, Byraveshwara Temple in Siddannagalli, Ramanjaneya Seva Mandali in Cubbonpet, Makkalla Basavanna Gudi, Kote Anjaneya Swamy Temple on Avenue Road, Doddapet, K.R. Market, Ranasinghpet, Akkipet, Aralepet, Haji Mastan Tawakkal Dargah in Cottonpet, Annamma Temple, Balepet, Chickpet, Sunakalpet, Killary Road and reaches the Anjaneya Temple at Mysore Bank Circle around 5:00 am.

At Haji Mastan Tawakkal Dargah, around 3:30 am, the ‘Karaga’ procession visits the tomb to invoke the blessings of the great saint. After it goes around the tomb thrice, the Muslim priest garlands the ‘Karaga’-bearer.

Before Sunrise, it goes back to Dharmaraya Swamy Temple through Chowdeshwari Temple on the Avenue Road.
