Dr.Meera Velankar - Evolution and Experiments.
Bringing Tandem Cycling to India
Listen to this TEdX talk as Meera talks to a vibrant crowd at NITK suratkal. In this session Meera talks about transitioning from a scientist to a cyclist, and how she set her sights on becoming one of India’s top five cyclists.
Ignoring societal judgments, she pursued her passion with determination, completing half Ironman events and various brevets. Through cycling, she discovered the freedom of a "Hakuna Matata" mindset, embracing the physical and mental well-being it provided and cherishing the outdoor adventures it offered.
Balancing her passion for cycling with her responsibilities as a mother, Meera has redefined what it means to be both a parent and a trailblazer. Her philosophy of always having a "Plan B" ready has guided her through life's uncertainties, turning every obstacle into an opportunity for growth.
Dr. Meera's cycling journey, averaging an impressive 8,000 km annually, symbolizes not just a sport but a transformative means of overcoming identity crises and embracing unforeseen passions inspired the audience and touched a chord with the young crowd.
