For Gyanendra Singh from Kashipur in Uttarakhand, a major part of the past decade was spent cycling on the road. He has set forth again, for the fourth time since 2002, to criss-cross the country with an intention to spread his messages to a wider audience.
Having started from Rameshwaram on April 29, the 42-year-old reached Kozhikode on Sunday morning after covering 1,770 kilometres.
More than 14,700 kilometres remain in his journey.
Against crime
This time around, he is cycling to spread a message against the rising crime rate in the country.
“I have been a witness to many instances of crime in my own village. Some of these affected me and my close relatives. I thought this is the right time to embark on this trip,” says Mr. Singh.
Though he calls himself an activist now, he dons many roles when he is not cycling. He has been a farmer as well as an English teacher in a public school in Uttarakhand. The first of his cycling trips was in 2002, to spread a message of peace after the Gujarat riots.
3,000 km
“I cycled from Kashipur to Lucknow to speak at a conference on women empowerment. After the conference, I decided to extend it and ended up cycling for the next three months. I covered around 3,000 kilometres then,” he says.
No strict schedule
He does not follow a strict schedule and hence covers varying distances each day.
“I end up spending more time at some places and so am not sure when I will finish this. Also, some days I cover 150 kilometres while on other days it is less than 100 kilometres,” he says.

Cyclist on mission to combat crime 

Shivani Jagan TIMES NEWS NETWORK 

Bangalore: Crime Patrol is his Prime Patrol.And 43-yearold Gyanendra Singh from Uttarakhand is now pedalling across the length and breadth of the country talking to youngsters,government officials and NGOs on the need to fight crime.
Currently in Bangalore,cyclist Gyanendra Singh set out from his home town Kashipur in Uttarakhand with the express mission of combating crime.Crime tears apart families.In the villages of our country,crime not only plays a disruptive role but also spreads fear.I want to spread awareness about crime.Tolerance to crime only exacerbates the wounds.I believe its the duty of people to react and respond to crime that happens around them, Gyanendra says.
Gyanendra,who is from a family of farmers,set out on his first cycling journey on May 11,2001.The cause then was to spread the message of harmony and world peace.His second cycling expedition was to back Indias cricket World Cup campaign in 2011.His third was for national unity and world peace.
His fourth journey took him across 8,000 km from Rameswaram to Ramnagar in Nainital district of Uttarakhand with the message of humanity and world peace.
On every journey,Gyanendra focuses on youths.He addresses students of various colleges and schools in an effort to make them aware of his message.Youths,he says,have the power tocreatechange and should understand their duty and responsibilities to society.
The devastating murders over mundane issues in the countryside of Uttarakhand drove him to undertake his fifth journey.He says TV shows on crime are doing a great job in talking about societal crime but it is time they move beyond heinous cases and get people to be proactive in combating crime.
Gyanendra plans to go to Chennai,Hyderabad,Nagpur,Raipur,Kolkata,Ranchi and Delhi on his current journey.
