Safety – something we ensure together
We are vulnerable on the road, no matter how effective the safety measures we put in place. In decisive moments, it's the small things, our own actions, that make the difference.
The road is a shared space. Whether you're at the Tour de France or on your way to the shop, on a bike you're always vulnerable. That's why we need to take the time to be patient and respect one another,« says Matej Mohorič.
