Aizawl, Jul 16 (PTI) – The vibrant city of Aizawl in Mizoram is gearing up to host the much-anticipated second edition of its urban downhill mountain biking race this November. Bringing together the thrill of sports and adventure tourism, the event promises to be a major attraction.

On Tuesday, Sports and Tourism Minister Lalnghinglova Hmar led a crucial meeting with officers from various departments, local leaders, and key event partners to discuss preparations for the upcoming biking race. Emphasizing the ambition to make this year's Red Bull Aizawl Tlang Ruam "bigger, more inclusive, and even more challenging," Hmar underscored the significance of the event in putting Aizawl on the global map.
