Hi, I'm Habib.

Community LeaderEvent OrganizerCreator of CyclelavaCreator of Hikencyc

I believe a cycle is the best way to see a city and meet its people. That belief started a weekly ride, and the weekly ride became a community.

Today I lead Hikencyc, which organizes group rides across Islamabad every Friday night and Sunday morning, and I run Cyclelava at The Cycling Point in F-8 Markaz, where riders can buy, rent and service their cycles.

Whether it is your first pedal stroke or your thousandth kilometre, there is a place for you in the group.

What I do

Three hats, one passion.

Community leader

Building a welcoming, inclusive cycling culture in Islamabad where every pace and every bike belongs.

Event organizer

Planning and leading Hikencyc rides, from route and safety to the people who turn up week after week.

Creator & store owner

Founder of Cyclelava and The Cycling Point, and the creator of the upcoming Cyclelava app.

“Come for the ride. Stay for the people.”The idea behind Hikencyc
