"Europe on a Bicycle: Together for the Earth"

This year's fourth annual bike ride through the center of Phnom Penh was once again an opportunity to spread awareness about the causes and effects of climate change and sustainable approach to the environment. This year the ride took place on Saturday and was connected with the bike ride organized by the National Olympic Committee of Cambodia on the occasion of Mother's Day. For safety reasons, the route has been slightly modified and did not lead immediately around the British Embassy and Embassy of the Czech Republic, however, representatives of the two embassies had the opportunity to greet the cyclists near the embassies. Compared to previous years police regulate traffic very inconsistently, and most of the route, cyclists were dodging between cars and motorbikes. All participants (4 000), comparable number as last year, finally arrived safely to the finish at the Olympic Stadium where light refreshment was waiting.
