Cyclecity (Ciclociudad) is trying to persuade Santo Domingo residents that the city would be more pleasant if more people used bicycles to get around. Huayna Jimenez and fellow supporters of the movement say that the city is perfectly doable by bicycle. According to Jimenez, people spend too much money using their cars, and often spend up to 40 minutes in traffic jams. Jimenez says the movement is "an appeal to reason." On Sunday, the group organized a 22-rider "cicletiada" passing by the main monuments in the Colonial City.
