The group ride is being held in coordination with the conference ‘Active Mobility Cares for the City. Policies, plans and projects for urban wellbeing’ and is intended as an opportunity to build a collective awareness of the relationship between health and urban and environmental wellbeing, in relation to the dynamic activity favoured by cycling, especially if carried out through public green park areas. The large urban green lungs in fact prove to be an essential building block for the construction of a general strategy of complex safeguarding and enhancement of health and urban biodiversity. The experience takes place through the Borgo Vittoria district, in an itinerary that develops from Cascina Fossata towards the green areas along the Stura di Lanzo in Turin.
Participation in the ride is free and open to a maximum of 30 people upon registration. Free bicycle hire is provided for those who explicitly request it at the time of registration.
