Jalgratta kui tervisliku ja keskkonnasõbraliku liikumisvahendi propageerimine
Start date: May 1, 2010,

The main goal of this project is to try to make the movement patterns of the the local people of Sänna village and the Rõuge county in general more variable. The changes in climate in nowaday world keep us trying to find and develop more friendly approaches how to live in our environment in a sustainable way. One possibility is to change people's moving habits so they should choose bicycling instead of cardriving. Our goal is to collect from the local people these forgotten old bicycles that have been left unused for some time and give them a new life. We teach and ask others to come and teach the locals how to value our forgotten repairing techniques, in this case to value the culture of old bikes. With this project we accomplish this situation where people can fix something real with their own hands and therefore get also the courage to try to aim at higher goals. Also this shows people the importance of being environmentally aware, also gives an opportunity to keep good health and shape.
