President Klaus Iohannis on Saturday urged as many people as possible to ride bicycles, showing that moving by means of a bicycle cuts road traffic and implicitly pollution.
Life in big cities is many times tumultuous and crowded, whereas improving life quality should be a medium and long-term objective. Moving by bicycle on Sunday in the park or pedaling each morning to the work keep us healthy, cut road traffic and, implicitly, pollution. I am with the bicyclists, urging as many people as possible to move by bicycle,' Iohannis wrote in a Facebook post.
Several cycling marches are scheduled for the weekend in Bucharest as well as Sibiu, Pantelimon and Branesti.
