Today We Celebrate World Bicycle Day 2020
Today (June 3) is World Bicycle Day!
While many people flock to purchase bicycles in the wake of Coronavirus, there will be many more people that will celebrate one of the easiest forms of transportation this year.
The World Health Organization calls cycling infrastructure, “a step towards achieving greater health equity.”
It is also affordable and an environmentally friendly way to boost health and improve the climate.
It's #WorldBicycleDay 🚲

Cycling is good for us all:
Like all forms of physical exercise it helps maintain a balanced weight and prevent heart disease, stroke, diabetes, & some cancers. + it improves mental health & well-being.
