He also believes that this is the best form of outdoor activities.

“That is why he prefers to give a bicycle to many of his friends and partners, which, in his opinion, can make the busy life of a busy person more balanced and healthy,” said a representative of Makarov.

At the initiative of the businessman, for many years, a program has been implemented to provide material and technical assistance to cycle federations and sports schools involved in the development of cycling around the world, including in his native Republic of Belarus.
