In a previous article, the whole issue of No Cycling zones in Kolkata was explained away. There are some 30 odd streets in Kolkata listed as No Cycling zones, and every one of them can be simply circumvented on your cycle. You don’t need to keep your ride at home. You can cycle on to your destination irrespective of the number of no cycling zones on the way.
Here are some maps of No Cycling zones in Kolkata, as you can see they are simple enough to circumvent through bylanes:
