KANIGARAN – Minggu (27/9) pagi, Wakil Wali Kota Probolinggo Mochammad Soufis Subri dan sejumlah kepala OPD gowes bareng awak media dan komunitas sepeda yang ada di Kota Probolinggo. Pimpinan Bank Jatim Kota Probolinggo dan sejumlah karyawan juga turut serta dalam gowes bareng kali ini.
Berangkat dari rumah dinas wali kota, rombongan memulai rutenya dengan melintasi Jalan Soekarno Hatta sebelum menuju ke arah selatan, yakni Jalan Citarum. Melanjutkan rutenya, wakil wali kota beserta rombongan melanjutkan rute ke arah Jalan Cisadane - Jalan Bengawan Solo - Mastrip - Jalan Cokroamintoro - Jalan Pahlawan, hingga finish di rumah dinas wali kota.
Tak hanya sebagai ajang olahraga, gowes kali ini juga menjadi momen silaturahmi dengan awak media dan komunitas sepeda di Kota Probolinggo. Dalam beberapa kesempatan, Wakil Wali Kota Subri menyatakan ketertarikannya dengan sepeda yang ditunggangi komunitas sepeda minion, yakni Mini Pro.
Dalam kesempatan tersebut, Subri menyatakan dirinya mengapresiasi hasil karya modifikasi sepeda minion yang memang tengah menjadi tren saat ini. Subri mengaku terkesan dengan hasil sepeda rakitan yang kini digandrungi banyak kalangan mulai anak-anak hingga dewasa.
“Saya lebih mengapresiasi karya semacam ini daripada sepeda buatan luar negeri yang harganya mencapai puluhan juta. Keren! Dari barang bekas bisa dimodifikasi hingga nilainya mencapai jutaan rupiah,” kata Subri.
Tak hanya itu, Subri juga berpesan agar setiap komunitas sepeda dapat memberikan kontribusi kepada masyarakat dengan menggelar kegiatan sosial. “Tidak perlu muluk-muluk, yang penting bermanfaat bagi masyarakat. Setiap anggota dapat memberikan kontribusinya dengan kegiatan sosial ini,” pesan Subri. (alfien)
Probolinggo Vice Mayor Mochammad Soufis Subri, and several regional working unit (OPD) heads had a bike riding along with the journalists and bicycle community in Probolinggo City. The officials of Bank Jatim, Probolinggo City, and staff also participated in the bike riding.

Continuing the route, the vice mayor continued the route towards Jalan Cisadane - Jalan Bengawan Solo - Mastrip - Jalan Cokroamintoro - Jalan Pahlawan, and ended the route at the mayor's official residence.
Not only as a sporting event, but this is also a moment of gathering with media crews and the bicycle community in Probolinggo City. On several occasions, Subri expressed his interest in bicycles ridden by the minion bicycle community, namely the Mini Pro.
On this occasion, Subri stated that he appreciated the creative works of minion bikes, which are currently being viral and a trend. Subri admitted that he was impressed by the creative works of the modified bikes, which most people including children and adults now prefer to use.
"I appreciate this kind of work. It’s more valuable than foreign-made bicycles that cost tens of millions. Cool! Used goods can be modified until the value reaches millions of rupiah," said Subri.
Not only that, but Subri also advised every bicycle community to contribute to the people by holding social activities. "No need to be pretentious, the important thing is to give benefit to the people. Each member can contribute with this social activity,” said Subri. (alfien_tr)
