A nice idea. But yes, India is a very vast country and vastly different too. Not only language/ dilect but cultures also changes wvery 200 - 300 Km. You have to plan it to fine details. The mode of travel, time you would like to spend, the moneybudget you have, type of experience you would like to have. If you want to cover tribes,villages, then you actually have to move away from the advices of 'dont go too far away from main city'. India actually lives in villages.
You can plan your schedule so that to make your base in a city and then cover the neighboring areas on bicycle. However,you have to be cautious till the practical levels. Not that there are murderers or robbersmoving freely on the roads, but you have to take precautions,you would generally take for your own safety. No display of heavy cash or expensive gadgets etc.
Indians are actually good at heart. When you reach any place, where any/few foriegner has(ve) gone earlier,you may find children looking at you anxiously, some even juming around you or running with your bicycle or even making noises at you. Dont worry, they are only excited to see you.
It is always better to have a local friend in the area. If you finalise the program, you may be able to get some of the good people, willing to help yu over net.
In cities also, not staying in very expensive hotels will help you not only unerstand the cultures/ working more closely,but also people will be more willing to help.

to travel in india and that too all places in one time is quiet impossible to do.
but if u have the urge and time and money and inclination then better to have some company with u , i mean local.
1st of all if u r indian or indian origin its better .
or u develop some friendship with local person or travel and go with a group. it will be safer.
if u plan it state by state is better then going haphazardly.
its a vast terrotory and the language and even dialects differ ever few 100 km.
all the best.

India will sideswipe you with its size, clamour and diversity - but if you enjoy delving into convoluted cosmologies and thrive on sensual overload, then it is one of the most intricate and rewarding dramas unfolding on earth, and you'll quickly develop an abiding passion for it.
Nothing in the country is ever quite predictable; the only thing to expect is the unexpected, which comes in many forms and will always want to sit next to you. India is a litmus test for many travellers - some are only too happy to leave, while others stay for a lifetime.
When To Go
Climate plays a key factor in deciding when to visit India. Keep in mind that climatic conditions in the far north are distinctly different to those of the extreme south.
Generally, India's climate is defined by three seasons - the hot, the wet (monsoon) and the cool, each of which can vary in duration from north to south. The most pleasant time to visit most places is during the cooler period: November to around mid-February.
The heat starts to build up on India's northern plains from around February, and by April or May it really hots up, peaking in June. In central India temperatures of 45°C and above are commonplace. South India also becomes uncomfortably hot during this time.
Late in May the first signs of the monsoon are visible in some areas - high humidity, electrical storms, short rainstorms and dust storms that turn day into night. The hot season is the time to abandon the plains and head for the cooler hills, and this is when hill stations are at their best (and busiest).
When the monsoon finally arrives the rain comes in steadily, generally starting around 1 June in the extreme south and sweeping north to cover the whole country by early July. The main monsoon comes from the southwest, but the southeast coast (and southern Kerala) is largely affected by the short and surprisingly wet northeast monsoon, which brings rain from around October to early December.
Things don't really cool down: at first hot, dry and dusty weather is simply replaced by hot, humid and muddy conditions. It doesn't rain all day, but it generally rains every day. Followed by the sun this creates a fatiguing steam bath environment.
Around October the monsoon ends for most of the country. This is when India sees most tourists - however, it's too late to visit Ladakh (May to October is the optimum period). During October and November it's generally not too hot and not too cool (although October can still be hot and/or humid in some regions). In the thick of winter (around mid-December to mid-January), Delhi and other northern cities can become astonishingly cold, especially at night - and it's bone-chilling in the far north. In the far south the temperatures become comfortably warm during this period.
It's worth checking the dates of particular festivals - you may be attracted or repelled by the chaos (and jacked-up prices) that attend them. There are virtually no festivals in May/June. The wedding season falls between November and March, when you're likely to see at least one lively procession through the streets
