About the Gearlama Blog
There’s a certain silence on a solo ride — the kind that fills you. A descent at dusk, gravel under tyre, breath steady, mind open. That’s the feeling we want this blog to carry.
The Gearlama Blog isn’t just a list of products or a content calendar. It’s a shared campfire for those who ride to disappear, to discover, or to dig deeper — into gear, terrain, or themselves.
Why This Blog Exists
Gearlama began as a gear discovery platform for Indian cyclists. But cycling isn’t just gear — it’s people, places, stories. This blog is where all of that lives:
- Real stories from real riders
- Honest, field-tested gear thoughts
- Ride guides and how-tos
- Reflections on cycling culture in India
- Voices that often don’t make it to mainstream cycling media
Who It's For
In a world where noise travels faster than thought, there remains a quiet few — readers of the slow sentence, seekers of meaning between the lines. This space is for them.
Where most scroll, we pause. Where most skim, we stay. We believe a story, like a good ride, deserves time — time to breathe, time to unravel.
Whether you're bikepacking through Spiti, circling your local trails, or daydreaming from behind a desk, this blog is for you. If you’ve ever chosen the longer route just because it felt right — you’ll feel at home here.
If you’ve ever paused not because you were tired — but because the light caught the dust just right — this blog is for you.

Built with Intention
This blog runs on Hugo, styled simply using the Stack theme designed by Jimmy. Because minimalism isn’t just in our saddlebags, it’s in our code too.
Curated gear. Ridden in India.
Ride light, write true.
