Cyprus Sunshine Cup thinks green

Organizers of the Cyprus Sunshine Cup mountain bike race series have launched a "Think green, act green" environmental protection campaign to plant trees and motivate people to use bicycles as a means of transport. Noting the intuitive connection of mountain bikers to nature, the organizers want to use the popularity of mountain bike pros and their series to draw attention to its new environmentally-oriented programs.
