Annand Prabhu commended the riders and said that more Mangalureans should come forward for such initiatives.  Nayak spoke about the medicinal values of saplings that were ready to be planted.

He said that fruit-bearing trees too were important for the conservation of environment as they were the ones sustaining the fauna in the environment. The saplings were provided by the Forest Department.
