Encouraging activities and the use of bicycles during bicycle month helps people to improve safety during the pandemic and contributes to better physical health.
The pedala Macaé project will be carried out during the month of June, called bicycle month, and hopes to move the capital of the oil and increasingly encourage the use of this means of transport. ''The project has everything to do with the city and will move the population, both economically and physically”, says the director of Aromeiazero, Murilo Casagrande.
With the use of bicycles, it is also possible to earn extra income, something that many people want in these days of high unemployment and lack of opportunities. ''We also want to encourage entrepreneurship in the world of cycling. It is possible to earn income from bicycles. Numbers from the Bike Alliance (Brazilian Association of the Bicycle Sector) prove that the sector is in full growth. The Viver de Bike project is aimed at this”, clarifies the coordinator of Ocyan.
According to Aliança Bike, in 2020, 1.079 new jobs were generated through the bicycle market. And for this 2021, even greater numbers are expected with this project in the month of bike.
