Bicycle clubs hope to motivate people to take up riding

Have wheels, will pedal is the motto of bicycle riders in Thiruvananthapuram. Their reasons for taking up cycling vary from improving fitness levels to a passion for exploring the outdoors and racing against the wind.

Leading from the front is Prakash P Gopinath, Bicycle Mayor of Thiruvananthapuram, who has made it his mission to popularise the use of bicycles, especially among women and children.

On June 3, observed as World Bicycle Day, a new Junior Bicycle Mayor will be selected from among more than 24 candidates.
