Bi’cycle’ of Fit India!
देशभर में साइकिलिंग के प्रति जागरूकता और इसके उपयोग को बढ़ावा देने के लिए bicycle mayors और विभिन्न cycling community के मेरे साथियों के साथ बैठक की।
केवल ‘Passion’ नहीं हमें इसे अब ‘Fashion’ के रूप में लाना है। ताकि अधिक से अधिक लोग साइकिलिंग के जरिए एक स्वस्थ जीवन की तरफ बढ़ें।
