The
Cycling association of Santorini is based on the island of Santorini in
Greece. They are responsible for the promotion and dissemination of
information of daily cycling events on the Island of Santorini. They
organize conferences, seminars, workshops, lectures, events, cycling
meetings and bike races.
They develop collaborations between similar clubs in Greece and
abroad to achieve the objectives of the association. The association
studies and monitors emerging issues and problems related to cycling in
the municipality.
The
cycling club of Santorini commits to the European Road Safety Charter
for the next three years with the following actions. We will:
1. Organise meetings on a frequent basis informing
members of our cycling team about the importance of wearing helmets
when cycling. The team will also be informed on issues of safe bicycle
handling.
2. Organise educational accident prevention
sessions. In these sessions we will focus on explaining to the
participants how to avoid road accidents by safe driving and by
preventive behaviour. Education will be based on the driving code of
conduct. As the island´s population more than doubles in the summer road
accidents are very common in this season. Attendant of these sessions
will be our members as well as members of the general public. We believe
that we can reduce the number of accidents by acting preventively in
our sessions.
3. Include a section on our website informing
users about road safety issues on the island. We will post in this
section photos, videos and articles related to problems as well as
guidelines on dealing with these problems.
4. Cooperate with the municipality of Thira in
the improvement of the local road infrastructure. As our organiser is a
technical engineer of the municipality our views and opinions regarding
the current infrastructure play a significant role in these projects.
