# About the Gearlama Blog
Theres a certain silence on a solo ride — the kind that fills you. A descent at dusk, gravel under tyre, breath steady, mind open. Thats the feeling we want this blog to carry.
The Gearlama Blog isnt just a list of products or a content calendar. Its 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 isnt just gear — its 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 dont 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 youve ever chosen the longer route just because it felt right — youll feel at home here.
If youve 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](https://gohugo.io/), styled simply using the [Stack theme](https://github.com/CaiJimmy/hugo-theme-stack) designed by Jimmy. Because minimalism isnt just in our saddlebags, its in our code too.
