Several regional stands at the International RUSSIA EXPO offer visitors bicycle rides as one of the entertainment options. At the stand of St. Petersburg you can pedal for the benefit of yourself and the environment.

Nowadays, plastic recycling is actively developing in our country. This helps reduce the burden on landfills, which means it reduces the harmful impact on the environment. You can make your contribution and also recycle plastic bottle caps in Pavilion No. 75.

"It’s very simple, I got on the bike and pedaled a little, they told me that the main thing is not to stop. I was prepared for a long ride, but after a couple of minutes my keychain was ready. It will be a reminder of how important it is to sort garbage" — visitor Elena Pushkar said with a smile.

The bicycle is equipped in such a way that by pedaling, a person starts the process of grinding the bottle caps, and then the shredded plastic is pressed into cute keychains that can be taken away.

The exposition is open from Tuesday to Sunday, Monday is a technical day. The most convenient time to visit is morning and weekdays, but on weekends the RUSSIA EXPO is also open to everyone. All expositions and events are free.
