As part of our sessions, our professor

assigned us with the real time practice of our project.

The following events are dated up to 22 February

The social media accounts are getting bigger day by day and this is nice, as we want a huge community. Although we came to the conclusion to do a social media campaign named #thecycling call later on spring, in order to not let our community await and doing nothing with a lockdown also happening. In addition our Podcast is completed and posted (link below)

The city councils are still negative about collaborating in such an event with the corona virus increasing and the lockdown still going. So, with these facts we cannot move forward with the project before Summer , a time where the virus could have a decrease or at least we may not have lockdown.

The results from the negotionations about the sponsorship with the sports-cycling shops is neutral as some owners are not ready for funding as they have a decrease in their profits because of the lockdown but many of them are willing to help us when the lockdown is finished. The athletes and the cyclers that we came in touch were excited ,although because of the virus the were keen to help us when the event will be 100% on the go.

Our community is there for us with messages often on the social media. As a team we are planning for a video call with them for a virtual meeting, for a thought-sharing about our project and of course for a talk about cycling in the city and the problems around it.
