Hi All

Its been incredible to see the kind of response that the cycling ban has evoked amongst people across Kolkata. Over the last few days, we have heard from people from all walks of life - students, activists, lawyers, entrepreneurs and cycling enthusiasts amongst others to support our cause to revoke the ban and promote cycling in the 'City of Joy'.

At the same time, we realize that this is not enough. We need to garner more support and if required, get on the streets, and fight for what we believe is right. But we can do it alone. We need as many hands as possible. If you feel strongly for a sustainable Kolkata, now is the time to step up and join us.

Date - Saturday, 31 August
Time - 11 am
Venue - 1 A, D.L. Khan Road, Jaju Bhawan, Kolkata - 700027. Landmark - Lane opposite Bangur Neurology Hospital.
Please refer to the map for directions.

Please send the word out to all those who may be interested to help.

Sharing with you an inspiring video on 'How Netherlands made cycling possible' for inspiration before we meet!

Warm Regards
