Engineer Cycles to Rayalaseema’s Toughest Peaks
Sai Kumar is an engineer who loves cycling and exploring.
He recently did something very special by cycling and trekking to the top of a very tough hill called Madakasira hill.
This hill has a very old fort, and it's so hard to reach that even walking is difficult.
Sai Kumar did this to show people the history and culture of his region, Rayalaseema.
He has been doing this for six years and has also traveled to other countries like Nepal, Thailand, Pakistan, and Malaysia.
He even made a big pencil drawing during the COVID-19 lockdown that got him a world record.
Sai Kumar comes from a simple family, but he is very passionate about exploring and learning about different places and people.
Sai Kumar, an engineer from Hindupur, cycled and trekked to the Singemoothi peak on Madakasira hill, a five-century-old fort site.
His expedition is considered a record of endurance and determination due to the rugged terrain and multiple obstacles.
Sai Kumar highlights the historical and cultural significance of remote hilltops across the Rayalaseema region through his journeys.
He has traveled to Nepal, Thailand, Pakistan, and Malaysia, and undertaken a 2,400-km bicycle journey across multiple regions.
