Bicycle is not just a sport but a transport means as well due to which it’s possible to keep the environment clean, be healthy and to reload the streets a little. We will try to develop cycling in Yerevan. I often tour about Yerevan by bike, however as a Mayor I have cycled today for the first time as actually I am short of time”, said Hayk Marutyan.
