Romania is a small country in Eastern Europe, with not much of a success in making the world a better place when it comes to the environment.

However, steps are being taken and young people get more and more actively involved in promoting greener technologies and solutions for the cities they live in.

With the help of many foundations and eco clubs in Timisoara – 2nd/3rd largest city in Romania, the Green For Bicycles campaign will start off with the first gathering on Saturday 25th in front of the Dan Paltiniseanu Stadium at 11 o`clock sharp.

Dubbed “Bike Counting” the initiative is meant to teach people that bicycles are great alternatives for a crowded city like Timisoara, and to make sure the authorities will notice their existence, hence building more special lanes for bicyclists.

I’m very upset because I miss it this time, but I’ve got my sources in and will get some pictures from the “parade” when everything ends.

I sure hope weather will be with them, because it’s kinda cloudy in Romania at the moment and tomorrow is not going to be much better.
