The Le tour du canal tolerance cycle tour returns to the Rowing Canal in Bulgaria's second-biggest city Plovdiv. On September 27 at 2:00 pm, the "You also come" Foundation is lending a hand to people with disabilities with a movement festival. The event will provide each participant with the opportunity to make as many trips around the canal as they want or can in one hour. 


People with disabilities will move around in wheelchairs - independently or accompanied by friends and volunteers. Everyone who wishes to is invited to join them, sportal.bg reported.


"The word of the tolerance bike ride is "Together". We want to show that people with disabilities are part of society and we are one. This will not be an event for sympathy, but a celebration in which we will move. Everyone is welcome - whoever wants. You can come with a bike, scooter, roller skates, stroller, rickshaw... As long as it is on wheels", said the organizer Gergana Doychinova.
