The ECDay is celebrated within the Poland-Russia Cross-border Cooperation Programme 2014-2020 on an annual basis. This year, the Joint Technical Secretariat of the Poland-Russia CBC Programme 2014-2020 together with the Active Tourism Center “KOŁODROM” is organising a cross-border bike ride „Poland-Russia”, in which 41 cyclists from Poland and Russia will participate.

The bike ride will take place on 19-21 September 2019 along the bike paths of the Warmia and Mazury Region with crossing the Polish-Russian border and reaching Ozersk as the final destination. The planned distance is about 100 km.

The aim of the bike ride is to integrate participants from Poland and Russia as well as to see the results of the projects that were implemented within the Lithuania-Poland-Russia Programme 2007-2013 and the places where the new projects will be realised within the Poland-Russia CBC Programme 2014-2020. The cyclists will have an opportunity to get to know each other as well as to visit different towns, interesting places and beautiful natural sites.
