➡ According to @EuCyclistsFed, one bike accounts for about 21g of CO2 emissions per kilometre.
This includes the energy ⚡ used to produce the bike and fuel 🥪☕🍏 its rider. And it's still more than ten times less than a car!
How often do you cycle? 🚴♀️

Happy #WorldBicycleDay! 🚲
Let's celebrate the benefits of cycling with the hope that every day can be bicycle day in the future.
Cycling contributes to clean air & less traffic. It also makes health care & education more accessible for all.
👉 What do you ❤ about biking?

Tomorrow is #WorldBicycleDay! 🎉
We know that cycling is good for people & the planet, but #DYK that cyclists are also totally cool? 😎
A 2014 study found that people think cyclists often demonstrate generosity, intelligence & the 'cool factor.' Can't say we're surprised 😉

💬 "The biggest challenge is convincing people that there are options other than a private 🚗. The second challenge is to provide them with these options," says Maria Perkuszewska, 🇵🇱's National Coordinator.

All but two lanes have been removed; with a dedicated tramway and abundant space for walking, rolling and gathering.
