Bicycles have been circulated around the year 1910, 100 years ago. The city has a long tradition of bicycle culture, which held the National 8-Cycle National Competition in 1925 at Sangju Railway Station Square. It has a population of 103,000, a bike of 85,000, It is a bike city with a 21% share of the means of transportation combined with a bicycle for 100 years. We are also striving to become a luxury bicycle city that leads bicycle use culture and leads green growth by leading leisure bicycle that is suitable for the new Nakdonggang River after the life bicycle.
In the background that Sangju became a bicycle city
at the commemoration ceremony in 1925, the National 8th Cycle National Competition was held. Many people came to cheer for the competition in Sangju Station Plaza. At that time, the players Um Bokdong and Park Sanghun won the competition and everyone began to buy a bicycle, naturally making it a mecca of bicycle naturally.
In order to revitalize bicycle use by Sangju
on 2002.1.11 the bike culture department has been established and various activities and projects have been promoted to activate bicycle use and establish and spread bicycle culture in commitment.
