A total of 233 cyclists participated in the "Halk Velo Green" bicycle race, which was organized on September 8 by Halkbank AD Skopje. The cyclists, by paying a registration fee, gave their contribution for collecting 184 denars, intended for afforestation at a location where there is a need for it.

As informed by Halkbank, these funds from the registration fees from the applications for participation in the race, will be used for planting new green areas at locations across the country that will be defined in cooperation with Macedonian Forests.

With the funds raised from last year's participation, 8000 trees were procured, which made afforestation in Sveti Nikole.

The bicycle race was held for the second time, and aims to promote healthy living habits among the population and to contribute to the preservation of the environment.

This year, for participation in "Halk Velo Green" was introduced for the first time a category for children from 6 to 12 years old who drove 12 km, as well as a category of children from 13 to 17 years old who rode a 22 km long trail. The adults, as last year, rode a 22 km long path in two categories, PRO and HOBBY.
