The “Bicycle Races,” a traditional event organized by Meram Municipality, kicked off with great enthusiasm this year as well. The first stages of the races, which aim to promote a love for sports and strengthen neighborhood culture, were held in Gödene and Dere neighborhoods.

There was fierce competition across three different age categories: 6–7 years, 8–10 years, and 11–13 years.

The excitement that began on Monday, July 21 in Gödene Neighborhood continued on Tuesday, July 22 in Dere Neighborhood. The strong interest from families and the determination of the children added a special touch to the races.

Meram Municipality presented various gifts to the children who placed in the rankings, boosting their motivation and ensuring they had an unforgettable day.
