Before the start of the academic year, students have their own proposal for the fight against September-traffic jams: going to class on bicycles. “Restart” Student-Civic Initiative announced the start of the bike ride today.

The students suggest that instead of heavy and challenging cars, people can drive light bicycles, which will also solve the problem of being late from the classes.

An experienced cyclist Gayane Alexanyan remembers a rumor that Yerevan is not a city to drive a bicycle.

“They often treat bad cyclists badly, they think cyclists are disturbing them, and in pavement, cyclists disturb pedestrians,” she says.

Student biking will become more frequent. An attempt will also be made to include more people, including lecturers, government representatives, and more.
