There was no tense competition. Cycling enthusiasts just needed to feel the happiness of cycling, admire the beautiful scenery along the way, enjoy the moment and relax the body and soul. The cycling enthusiast Wang Fei and his girlfriend felt very happy when cycling on the scenic Xijiao Green Road. He said that “I really want to return to the pastoral life after living in the city for a long time. After hearing the picturesque Xijiao Green Road in Tongliang, I did not hesitate to bring my girlfriend to participate in the cycling activity.
