“Bike Your Day” Campaign to Minimize The Use of Cars in Aley

By MUBS Communications Dept., 2000-2021.

No fuel? Well, no problem, choose the new way and Bike Your Day. Let’s cruise through the city to discover how much fun, easy and healthy it is to bike.

 

From our belief that educational institutions should take the lead in directing the change and birth of a new mentality given the current circumstances, MUBS launched “Bike Your Day” in Aley campus on December 1st 2019 starting from 9:30 a.m till 11:30 a.m.

 

The campaign aimed to minimize the Carbon Footprint of using cars, raise awareness on the health benefits of physical activity, work with Aley municipality on later stage to create bike lanes dedicated to bikers and cyclists, and overcome the gas shortages we are experiencing.

 

The event was sponsored by Beirut By Bike who provided 40 bikes with all the security gears and Municipality of Aley who stayed with the bikers on that day to provide all safety measures on the road.

People were very happy after the event and we have received many requests to organize more biking days.
