Let’s make Helsinki the third best cycling city in the world
When asked what the best cycling cities in the world are, most people will answer Amsterdam and Copenhagen. When asked to name a third city, however, they will hesitate, and no other city stands out among the answers.
Helsinki wants to change this by aiming to become the third best cycling city in the world.
