Stories that you confided to us
Myroslav Byvalin is fond of bicycles. He knows how to repair and assemble them... Myroslav also “created” his own bicycle. It was his life: he rode his bike around the city and in the mountains... He had to leave his miracle bike in his native Mariupol. Myroslav’s family lived not far from Azovstal. Once the large-scale invasion started, they heard loud explosions. A bomb fell near their house. Myroslav saw dead bodies on the city streets. Once, during a shelling, Myroslav tried to protect his younger sister by covering her with his body... After all the trauma of war, Myroslav could not speak for a long time, although he was safe. A bicycle helped him regain his speech.
