"Nearly 5,000 cyclists celebrated 'World Bicycle Day' in Mexico City on Sunday. They gathered to raise awareness of the benefits of the alternative means of transportation. 'We are (forming the image of a bike with people), to call on citizens to encourage them to use bicycles as a means of transport and to celebrate bikes as a recreational tool that helps our health and economy', said organizer, Paola Gomez. "
That is an impressive picture of a unified cycling community in Mexico City!
