World Bicycle Day

If you love to pedal and feel the breeze in your hair, do not miss World Bicycle Day on June 3. Remember learning to ride your bike, falls and all. Even if you have not biked for a long time, it is impossible to lose this skill. Two minutes of training is enough to feel like you never stopped!

History

Bicycles are often inherited from parents or grandparents. This form of transport requires repairs relatively rarely and can serve you for a long time.
