Cycling in India stage 15

The road out of Jumbugodha led through a park and then back into farming, with trees most of the way. As the next hotel by the river Narmada was only 66 km away, we weren't on the road long. Our van driver found a good chair stop, where we attracted the usual crowd of enthusiastic onlookers.
I finally got a picture of a typical truck back end which encourages passing vehicles to use their horn; which drivers are most willing to do!
When we reached the hotel, we checked into our room, and then went out for a 20 km spin in the country.  On our return, a couple of local TV crews were interviewing the guides, and asked to interview us as well. Given that the interviewers spoke no English, I wonder how they will edit their stories. Clearly,  one of the hooks was how we were cycling "despite our age".
