The Turkish Cycling Federation has announced the ‘Turkey is Pedaling’ (Türkiye Pedallıyor) event, which will take place across 81 provinces from October 29 to November 1. The initiative coincides with the 103rd anniversary of the Republic of Turkey and serves as a precursor to the COP31 United Nations Climate Change Conference, which is scheduled to be hosted in Antalya from November 9 to 20, 2026.
The program aims to promote climate awareness, sustainable living, and physical health by encouraging bicycle use as a zero-emission transportation alternative. The event is open to all, including licensed athletes, cycling clubs, students, and families.
In Istanbul, a specific event is scheduled for Saturday, October 31, starting at 10:00 AM from Beşiktaş Square, featuring an approximately 10-kilometer route. Detailed schedules, including specific times and starting points for all 81 provinces, will be published on the federation’s official website.
