2nd Bike for climate – bike for peace
9 October 2022
On Saturday 9 October 2022, the Ad Pacem association organised a bike ride on the cycle paths of south-western Luxembourg.
Ten people met at 9 am to start from the station in Pétange. The group took several breaks along the 40 km route.
At noon, everyone had lunch in the open air. As the route was organised in a loop, at about 5 p.m. the whole group arrived again at the station of Pétange from where they had started.
This outing through the fields and along the woods was another experience to rediscover the bicycle as an ecological, healthy and group way of travelling.
