With spring now well under way it is time for the two administrations to get their Bike Fridays up and running again. The idea is simple; to encourage colleagues to think of coming to work on a bicycle rather than using the car, if at all possible. We offer a bio breakfast and, on this occasion, invited in a mechanic to service colleagues’ bikes. Brussels is rapidly becoming very bike friendly. It used to be hard and take some courage to ride a bicycle around the city but now there are cycle lanes or cyclist-designated spaces in most roads and the biggest discouragement is the hill that separates the uptown and downtown city. Still, using your bike (or walking) is a win-win solution; you don’t pollute the environment and you get fit into the bargain.
