#outbiking

At World Bicycle Relief, we mobilize people through the Power of Bicycles. Two wheels can open a new world of possibilities – especially in places where access to reliable transportation is a luxury. That’s why we help people in low-income regions of the world go after their dreams with life-changing bicycles. Armed with a rugged Buffalo Bicycle and support from their own communities, students, health workers and entrepreneurs can face challenges head on and thrive.

Thanks to the support of our incredible community, we’ve helped empower 640,000+ people so far!

RIDE ON …

It’s finally spring and there’s no better way to celebrate than with a long bike ride. But between hydration, fuel and what to wear, getting on the saddle for a day of riding might seem intimidating. That’s why we had Vision Quest Coaching put together a guide for you. In it, you’ll find out more on what to eat and drink, how to train for a longer ride, whether you need Spandex, and even how to keep your bike in riding shape.

5 TIPS: BE PREPARED FOR YOUR FIRST LONG BICYCLE RIDE


… WITH THE RIGHT BIKE

We know buying a new bike can be intimidating. That’s why we’ve created this bike-buying guide just for you. Don’t worry – your bike style doesn’t matter, or how fast you can ride. You’ll learn about the different types of bikes, whether you should buy new or used, bike sizing and more.

YOUR GUIDE TO BUYING THE RIGHT BICYCLE

Meet the comeback girls

For Malawi teen mothers Maggie and Febby and their friends, a bicycle can mean the difference between staying in school or not. Knowing that education equals a brighter future, for them and their daughters, these young mothers strive to finish their education despite an almost two-hour walk to school. The gift of two wheels might be the perfect answer.

STRONG LIKE A BUFFALO

If you’ve seen our Buffalo Bicycles in person, you know they’re pretty special. Buffaloes were designed specifically for the rugged terrain of rural low-income regions, where World Bicycle Relief partners with communities to distribute them to people in need of reliable transportation.
