I took up competitive cycling at 33, with no sporting background whatsoever, and went on to set three Guinness World Records. If you are chasing a goal that feels out of reach — your first century ride, your first ultra, or simply a stronger, more disciplined you — I would like to help you get there.
I am a serving Indian Army officer who discovered cycling at an age most athletes are already winding down. No club, no coach, no sporting pedigree — just a decision to start. Within a few seasons I held three Guinness World Records, four WUCA world records, and became the first Indian to stand on an international ultra-cycling podium.
I did not get there by accident. I got there through structured, honest training — the same discipline the Army has drilled into me for over two decades — and through people who guided me when I did not know what I was doing. Now I want to bring that same structure to athletes who are where I once was, at any level, from someone taking their first pedal stroke seriously to someone eyeing their first ultra-distance start line.
As Officer In-Charge of Army Cycling & Rugby Teams, I spent two years building athletes, not just chasing my own results. Coaching you is a continuation of that — a plan built around your life, your goals and your honest starting point, not a generic template.
Structured, personal and built around your goals — whether that is your first organised ride or your first ultra-distance attempt.
