“ಬೆಂಗಳೂರಿನಿಂದ ಕನ್ಯಾಕುಮಾರಿಯವರೆಗೆ ಸೈಕಲ್ ಸವಾರಿ ಕೈಗೊಂಡ ಶ್ರೀ ಎಸ್. ಸುರೇಶ್ ಕುಮಾರ್ ಅವರ ಸಾಧನೆ ಶ್ಲಾಘನೀಯ ಮತ್ತು ಸ್ಫೂರ್ತಿದಾಯಕವಾಗಿದೆ. ಆರೋಗ್ಯದ ಹಿನ್ನಡೆಗಳನ್ನು ಮೆಟ್ಟಿ ನಿಂತು ಅವರು ಈ ಸಾಧನೆ ಮಾಡಿರುವುದು ಅವರ ದೃಢ ನಿರ್ಧಾರ ಮತ್ತು ಅಚಲ ಮನೋಭಾವವನ್ನು ಎತ್ತಿ ತೋರಿಸುತ್ತದೆ. ಇದು ಫಿಟ್ನೆಸ್ ಕುರಿತು ಪ್ರಮುಖ ಸಂದೇಶವನ್ನೂ ನೀಡುತ್ತದೆ.

ಅವರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಮಾತನಾಡಿ, ಅವರ ಈ ಪ್ರಯತ್ನಕ್ಕೆ ಅಭಿನಂದನೆ ಸಲ್ಲಿಸಿದೆ.
