European Mobility Week runs from September 16 to 22, 2026. This year, the theme “Mobility for Everyone” focuses on intergenerational fairness, considering how transport serves children, young people and older people as well as adults in between.
Riga has a bicycle ride through Purvciems and Pļavnieki scheduled for September 16. The September 19 Tweed Ride starts at the University of Latvia Botanical Garden and finishes at Kalnciema Quarter; participants are invited to wear retro clothing.
Events like these offer a reason to see familiar city routes differently. Before setting out, check the current programme for your chosen ride’s start time and route. If joining with friends or family, agree on a comfortable pace and meeting point beforehand, leaving more attention for the city itself.
