Riding for the Future this World Bicycle Day

Announcing World Bicycle Day!

Tomorrow, 3rd June, we celebrate more than just the joy of riding a bike. We give the bike two pedals (thumbs) up as a powerful solution for personal wellbeing, planetary health, and equality.

Whether it’s a road bike, e-bike, cargo bike, trike or handcycle, cycling is for everyone. In a divided world, the humble bicycle remains a great leveller. It defies social boundaries and brings people together.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO)

“Walking and cycling can provide a form of transport while reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, certain cancers, diabetes, and even death”

 “Improved active transport is not only healthy; it is also equitable and cost-effective.”

Reducing carbon emissions, easing congestion and improving air quality. Boosting mood, mental clarity, and physical fitness. Cycling is a beautifully simple climate and health solution.

When we celebrate the power of pedals, we ride for joy, for well-being and for a better future.

If you are out on your bike tomorrow, share the love - tag us on Instagram @climate_calm. Happy World Bicycle Day!
