World Bicycle Day.
3 June is World Bicycle Day.
The Bicycle is a symbol of freedom, independence and a means to connect people.
The Bicycle is the most sustainable, affordable, environment friendly means for mobility. The benefits include less dependence on diminishing fossil fuels, reduction in carbon footprint and most of all reduce health risks.
Bicycles were the most popular means for transport from the late 19th century till the automobiles became common. It remains the most affordable means for mobility for the common man. However the roads are designed for the fast moving automobiles and the space available for cycling is becoming increasingly lesser and lesser by the day.
It’s time to encourage the youth to take up cycling instead of going in for motorbikes, scooters etc which unfortunately have become a symbol of youthful aggression.
