Amazing place.... One must visit.... They have a beautiful collection and are maintained very well... Approx time you need to see this is around 3 hours.... Whatever they are done doing with heart and soul... Just loved it to the core... The collection is very varied... maintained and explained amazingly... With every minor detail... You must take your teenage kids to see this museum... They have so so many varieties of cycles and displayed them so well .. most of them are in working condition. And so many other rare and unique items from the past... There are many things which are beyond our imagination... It cost around 100rs entry ticket but it's totally worth it. Photography is not allowed. The attendant is also very nice... She is very knowledgeable and helps with every minute details... They also have some vintage bikes and cars... The campus is also designed very beautifully and thoughtfully... It feels like you are in a different paradise the moment you enter the gate... It's a very rare and hidden Gem... Not known to many ... But truly a very very amazing place.... I totally loved it to...

Have you ever wondered how people used to carry out their day to day activities in 20th Century? If yes, then take a walk to the memory lane of Day to day activities in this beautiful meusuem which privately held by Mr. Vikram Pendse.

As photography is not allowed of the collectible items. But I requested him, & he very politely aggreed, I respected his work didn't taken much photographs.

If you're from or in Pune, never been to this place. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to go there. You'll find so much about your beautiful city. How people used to travel during colonial times, how things were kept in the kitchen, what kind of locks were there. Such rare or Never heard of things you'll see over there.

The most unique about this place you'll not just roam around & see the things, Mr. Vikram will walk you through all his collections & explain their working as well.

If I had option of giving more than 5 stars, I...

An impressive collection of not only cycles, but various other artefacts that have been carefully placed & preserved under one roof by one man - Mr.Vikram Pendse. A private museum that has perfectly managed by Mr.Pendse and his family.

Cycles, tricycles, tandem cycles, bikes, cars, utensils, enamel coated advertising boards that are vintage in themselves, betel nut crackers, antique irons, watches, keychains, ovens, pens, spirit bottles, glasses, doll house, and the list is endless. Hats-off to Mr.Pendse to manage such a huge art collection and have it for display for the public during scheduled timings.

Had the privilege to meet him in person and even take a selfie. 😊 And yes, Photography is prohibited of the museum section, so only had a couple of photos that I took before they requested to not take pictures. Witness the museum by yourself....
