Wednesday June 3 2020 was World Bicycle Day. Its history dates back to April 2018, when the United Nations General Assembly declared June 3 as International World Bicycle Day, acknowledging the uniqueness, longevity and versatility of the bicycle, which has been in use for two centuries. As you may know, it is a simple, affordable, reliable, clean and environmentally sustainable means of transportation.
