A proposed “Bicycle Code” being discussed at the City Council would set rules for employees, businessmen, traders and students who pedal through selected streets throughout the day.
The Baguio government has been advocating “micromobility” like walking or biking to reduce traffic jams and improve air quality in the mountain resort city.

Most bikers were male, and the areas frequented by bikers were Magsaysay Avenue , and the Panagbenga Park Rotunda which directs motorists towards Loakan Road , to South Drive , and upper Session Road.
