About

The vélotaf what is ?

The term “bike” is a contraction of the words “bike” and “job”. It simply refers to the action of getting to work using a bicycle, whether for the whole trip or just part of it. The bicycle is often encouraged for its health benefits, its reduced environmental impact compared to other motorized modes of transport, and its contribution to the reduction of traffic jams and urban pollution.

Many cities around the world encourage the use of the bicycle by setting up adapted infrastructures such as bike paths, secure bicycle parking, and by raising awareness of this practice.
