"Cyclists in Moscow don’t have bike paths. The traffic areas are made only for motorized traffic. All technology in the road system applied to cars, could be used for bicycles, for instance traffic lights at intersections, parking systems, and directions. But we can see nothing of the kind on streets. In Moscow, we actively question and debate this situation. This is unfair and unequal. Moscovites own more then 3 millions of bikes already, their number and share of the traffic are growing. Bikes are eco-friendly and, perhaps most important, they are healthy means of transportation."

Wir sind der festen Überzeugung, dass es möglich ist, den Radverkehr sicher, effektiv und komfortabel zu führen und weder vermeidbar zu gefährden noch zu behindern. Unser Ziel ist eine deutliche Verbesserung des Stellenwerts des Fahrrades als Verkehrsmittel, ohne dabei andere Verkehrsteilnehmer über Gebühr zu benachteiligen, dazu gehören auch Fußgänger."

The Cycle Advocacy Network (CAN) brings together people with a shared interest in creating the conditions that enable more people to cycle, including better infrastructure for cycling and safer roads. Together we CAN share information, support each other, and provide a louder and more effective voice for both those who cycle already and those who might, if it looked and felt safer to do so."

We involve people with different and seldom-heard voices, to develop solutions that work for everyone.

We keep questioning and asking if we can do more. We know we can’t do this on our own so we work closely with others."
