BICYCLE YOUR WAY TO FITNESS THIS WORLD BICYCLE DAY

World Bicycle Day on the 3rd June is a fun and interesting way to engage all of us into a very important arena : care about the environment in a healthy way. We all remember our first bicycles from childhood and all the races to school that we had back in the day. As time has passed, more and more motorized vehicles have taken over the road and pollution has taken over our health.
