Around 150 Participants in a Cycling Race Held Yesterday

The university bicycle race “Memorial-Suada Dilberović” was held today in Sarajevo, in memory of the first victim of the aggression on Bosnia and Herzegovina, who was also a student of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Sarajevo.

A member of the Student Parliament Amar Nurković said that about 150 citizens and students will participate in the bicycle race, and prizes will be awarded to the winners.

”We organized the bicycle race on the International Day of the Fight against Facsism and the Day of Europe, and we want to send a message from Sarajevo to the world that the unfortunate events that had happened during the war never brought anything good, just damage and human casualties”, he explained.

Nurković also added that the aim of this event is to point out to the lack of bike trails in the capital.

The student cycling race was initiated by the University of Sarajevo, and the organizer of this year’s fifth cycling race is the Student Parliament.

The race was supported by the Prime Minister of the Sarajevo Canton Elmedin Konaković and the Cantonal Ministry of Culture and Sports.
