Epic Mountain Cycling Expeditions
Escape the city on two wheels. We guide you through the high-altitude trails of the Nilgiris and the Himalayas, focusing on quiet backcountry roads and authentic mountain stays.
Our Spiti tour is defined by rugged roads and high mountain passes. We handle all the logistics so you can focus on the ride and the immense, raw beauty of the Himalayan landscape.
The journey through Spiti is a spiritual one, with visits to ancient monasteries that seem to float in the clouds. We build time into our cycling tours for these quiet moments of cultural immersion.
We believe where you stay is part of the adventure. On our Himalayan tours, we choose picturesque homestays in remote villages, offering you an authentic experience and a comfortable place to rest.
The adventure doesn't end when the sun goes down. Far from city lights in the high Himalayas, you can marvel at spectacular night skies and star trails, a truly humbling experience.

About Epic Mountain Expeditions
We don't just plan a route and let you loose. Every mountain expedition includes a dedicated support vehicle, or SAG wagon, that follows our group. It carries your gear, provides water refills, and offers a ride if those inclines in the Nilgiris or Spiti get a bit too steep. It gives you the freedom to push your limits, knowing help is always within reach.
Our approach to mountain expeditions is built on the belief that the journey matters more than the destination. We spend months scouting remote roads in the Nilgiris and high-altitude passes in the Himalayas to find paths that avoid highway traffic.
Why ride with us?
- Terrain Variety: From the rolling tea estates of Coorg at 1,600 meters to the stark, rugged passes of Spiti, we pick routes that challenge you without breaking you.
- Support & Safety: We bring a technical crew on every trip. They handle bike washes, lube services, and emergency repairs so your machine stays in top condition. In the high Himalayas, we include 4x4 support with oxygen and first-aid gear.
- Beyond the Saddle: We pick stays like plantation bungalows and remote homestays where you can actually rest. You will find local meals—think Coorgi specialties or hot mountain stews—waiting for you after a long day of climbing.
Whether you are tackling your first 40km climb or training for a mountain century, we structure our rides so you can push hard or take it easy. We handle the mechanics, the permits, and the navigation. You just bring your legs and your sense of adventure.
Pedal in Tandem
We started Pedal in Tandem to escape the city noise and find freedom on two wheels. We are a team of bike nerds and route scouts who believe the best way to see the mountains is from the saddle, with local food and a comfortable bed waiting at the end of the day.
