Cycling News in Qatar

I love my bike - I have already told you about it - I left it in Hungary and I hoped to find a way to buy one here and ride around ...but so far it is just the beginning the new trend of riding a bike .Now it is not only for the poor Indian guys but for the eco-minded youngsters as well . It is  good news -it is getting accepted more and more .There are newly-built bicycle tracks along Salwa and Al Waab roads .Electric bikes (e-bike) will soon start rolling in Education City .And according to Qatar National Bicycle Master Plan all major roads will have dedicated bicycle paths in the future ...
Going to the supermarket by bike is still a dream ... a thing that is absolutely normal in my country .
