Teams from 28 schools across the district took part in the competition, including 19 teams from primary schools and 9 from lower-secondary schools.

The competition consisted of three stages. The first two were a test and a ride through an obstacle course. The third took place in a road traffic town, where participants’ ability to ride a bicycle on the road was tested.

The aim of the competition is, among other things, to help improve road traffic safety, including the safety of children and school-age young people, by:

  • promoting regulations and principles for safe road use
  • developing partnership-based behaviour toward other road users
  • promoting basic principles and skills for providing first aid
  • promoting the bicycle as a means of transport, as well as for recreation and sport.

Final standings in the lower-secondary school category:

  1. Gimnazjum Samorządowe No. 2 from Bolesławiec
  2. Gimnazjum Samorządowe from Nowogrodziec
  3. Gimnazjum Samorządowe from Osiecznica.

Final standings in the primary school category:
