Some 1.5 million Petersburgers own bicycles, including Governor Georgy Poltavchenko, and cyclists comprise about 10 per cent of traffic in the city, according to a press release issued by the committee earlier last month. According to a poll cited by the committee, the majority of cyclists in St. Petersburg are men aged between 21 and 40 years old (29.8 percent), or women between 31 and 50 (25.1 percent).
