The bike parade will kick off on the Krymsky Bridge at 3 pm and follow a bike path along the scenic Moskva River embankments through Gorky Park and Neskuchny Sad to Vorobyovy Gory and back.
The pageant is an extension of a memorial exhibition, 150 Years of the Bicycle, which will open in the Most exhibition facility (Krymsky Bridge, opposite the Central House of Artists and the Museon Arts Park) on the same Saturday.
The display features hundreds of rare period bikes from Andrei Myatiyev’s collection. According to the collection owner, it traces the evolution of two-wheeled transport from the primitive “boneshakers” of the 1860s to the best racing models of the late 1990s.
Some examples are a Soviet race bike that participated in the Olympics, army bikes that survived two world wars and fancy designer bikes. The display includes mannequins wearing period biking attire.
