Recently, Linfen City in Shanxi Province hosted the Beautiful Fenhe Green Cycling Competition. More than 1,000 cycling enthusiasts from 10 provinces and cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Fujian, as well as from the province itself, enjoyed the thrill of cycling in the scenic Fenhe Park.
The competition included three categories: men’s youth, men’s middle-aged, and women’s groups, with race distances of 33 km, 22 km, and 22 km respectively. In the end, Xia Lijun and Xia Lixin from Heilongjiang, along with Li Guochang from Henan, claimed the top three spots in the men’s middle-aged group; Shang Sikai from Shaanxi, Wang Xian and Ma Chao Kang from Henan won the top three in the men’s youth group; and the women’s group winners were Lin Ying from Shanghai, Chen Lijuan from Linfen, and Hong Sainan from Beijing.
Themed “Ecological Protection, Low-Carbon Living, Green Travel,” the event aimed to create a hundred-kilometer Fenhe cycling festival for the citizens of Linfen, calling on residents to become advocates and practitioners of low-carbon commuting.
