"Alles op de Vëlo" – eng "Success story", déi hiert Zil erreecht huet

In 1995, the first edition of "Alles op de Vëlo" took place. Goals for the introduction of this cycling day were, among other things:

• show that more and more people want to use the bicycle in everyday life and are campaigning for it;

• to give everyone, especially families, the opportunity to enjoy the scenic and car-free route between Mamer and Mersch by bike one day a year and

• to demand the construction of a cycle path between Mamer and Mersch.

With complete success: every year thousands (in some years up to 8,000) – whether rain or oppressive sun – took part in the cycling day and enjoyed this carefree day to the fullest.

Now, after 25 successful editions, it has been decided that this year's 26th edition should come to an end. "Alles op de Vëlo" is a "success story" and as the saying goes: you should stop when it's at its best.
