If you are a biker, you know that a weekend ride away from the city is all you need to refresh and rejuvenate you. What if that comes with misty vistas, an authentic homestay and a dose of history? Well, that's what Jumpstart Outdoors, a biking group has planned for you this weekend. At this bike ride to Phansad and Janjira, drive up 130 km to a secluded village in the Western Ghats. "We take the old Bombay-Goa Highway until Alibaug after which we follow the beach-side route through villages full of twists and turns unlike the highway," shares Dhiren Talpade, director, Jumpstart Outdoors.

The group welcome riders with all kinds of bikes on the day-long ride and suggests one with several breaks that let you soak in the vistas along the way. The ride ends in a trek  through the Phansad Wildlife Reserve and a visit to the fort of Murud-Janjira.
