We are pleased to announce the addition of World Bicycle Relief to our Bikeflights Buck Up For Bikes program. Since its launch in 2016, Buck Up For Bikes has raised more than $120,000 for non-profit cycling organizations.
Tumblr media
“The work that World Bicycle Relief does in using bicycles to change lives fits perfectly with the mission of our Buck Up For Bikes program to get more people on bikes and supports the future of cycling,” said Sue George, Vice President of Bikeflights. “As we grow Bikeflights and serve more international bike shipping customers, we’re excited to expand Buck Up For Bikes to benefit more people around the globe.”
World Bicycle Relief empowers people and communities through life-changing bicycles. Equipped with a purpose-designed Buffalo Bicycle from World Bicycle Relief, individuals in low-income regions can access education, markets, health facilities and vital services they need to thrive – becoming a force for change and creating opportunities for themselves, their families and entire communities.
“We are so excited to join the successful Buck Up for Bikes program with BikeFlights,” said Claire Geiger, Director of Global Partnerships. “Their incredible commitment to helping get more people on bikes is aligned with World Bicycle Relief’s mission, and the support from this program will help individuals and communities in rural regions of the world thrive with access to life-changing bicycles.”
World Bicycle Relief joins our roster of existing Buck Up For Bikes beneficiaries including Trips For Kids, the National Interscholastic Cycling Association, the International Mountain Bike Association and Little Bellas. 
Everyone who ships with Bikeflights has the opportunity to Buck Up For Bikes. You get the option to contribute a buck (or more!) at checkout. We collect and cover the costs of processing donations, making sure that every dollar donated goes directly to the partner organizations. We also cover all costs of administering and publicizing the program.
World Bicycle Relief was also named the official charity of the 2023 UCI World Cycling Championships, featuring 13 different world championship events on August 3-13, 2023 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Great ride with the #worldbicyclerelief group this morning, 110 miles 5hours. Good opportunity to work on my FatMax. Fueling was @torqfitness hydrate initially, then after an hour moved onto TORQ energy, regular gels and 1 bar and 1 🍌. Still lost a fair bit of water weight, so it's really important that you get the fluids in you as soon as possible. I consumed at least 60gm of carbs after the first hour, heart rate mid 120s a little over 3w/kg. If you would like to improve endurance and discover your FatMax ability, this is just one of the performance metrics we will establish through the @inscyd_ PPD .

#Repost @prettydamnedfast ・・・ On July 11, @velocioapparel released the Unity jersey. This jersey represents everything we love about cycling. We all have our unique reasons for why we ride bikes, but the sense of community and opportunity cycling provides is truly wonderful. When you buy a Unity jersey, Velocio will donate 100% of the proceeds to the charity of your choice (#ACLU, #HRC, #AmnestyInternational, #WorldBicycleRelief). Stay tuned for a piece on the blog next week showcasing the Unity jersey, and some inspiring stories 📸: @saddlesniffers . . . . #velociounity #morepeopleonbikes #community #diversity #sunsouttonguesout

Visited several Buffalo Bike shops across Zambia together with the @locosciclos. Those shops provide complete bikes, parts and maintenance for the Buffalo Bikes. They're also great stops for touring cyclists riding on 26" wheels and looking for puncture proof tires...the special Kenda Buffalo tire is, cheap, puncture proof and long lasting. The staff we talked to was always very passionate and knowledgeable about the Buffalo Bike and even the different processes like bike distribution to schools and other programs...the @locosciclos took their time for in depth interviews and video clips for their WBR fundraising project. Super interesting to see the evolution from the old to the new shops... What a great team all over! #zambia #cyclingzambia #buffalobikes #buffalobikeshops #worldbicyclerelief #wbr #buffalobicycles #thepowerofbicycles #cargobikes #kendabuffalotire #bicyclerepair #velosophics #bikepacking #africa #livingmydreams #neverstopexploring #nevernotriding #adventurelifestyle #adventure #cyclists #bikes #locosciclos #vpacebikes #T2ST #ortlieb_waterproof #tubus (hier: Zambia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvHNrFIASW8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=empubdttibr7

I've ridden my bike almost 200miles since Friday - because I wanted to and because I can. There's an incredible amount of people, and especially women, that either don't get to make those decisions, or plainly don't see the opportunity! Luckily, there are amazing organizations and women, such as @sgalpin74, Maria from @po_campo, @yasmeensnaps, @saraisnyder, @rebeccarusch and so many more that give inspiration to me and countless others! And for that I'm grateful and for that I'll ride on ❤️🚴🏼‍♀️💪 . . #cyclofemme #women #womencycling #strongher #weouthere #rapha #raphachicago #rcc #worldbicyclerelief #womenrideforchange #womenbikechicago #twcweride #bikingplaces #thechainlink #empowerment #bikes #bike #fromwhereiride #bikescansolvethat #bikemonth (at Chicago, Illinois)

Repost: • @filmedbybike For rural health workers on the frontlines, mobility is key. This is more important than ever right now. That’s why our friends at @worldbicyclerelief have a special campaign to provide 2,500 bicycles to health workers who are eager to reach rural villages. These bikes are specially built to withstand the rigors of rural life. Here’s the amazing part: For only $147 (USD), you can provide a bicycle to a health worker. Learn more on their Instagram or WorldBicycleRelief.org. 📷WBR https://www.instagram.com/p/B_HIGKFJkA0/?igshid=km6rav6l2sgm

Got spooked for a second. Wearing tinted lenses, I thought, “holy s—, I didn’t feel anything! Where?!” But it’s from those trees that have red berries with seeds the size of cherry seeds. They’re all over the roads today. Turkeys are out, too. Wandering the ground as they do. #rideawaythestigma #ride #rideyourbike #endalz #oblonglandconservancy #thegreatswamp #rideeveryday #everyrideisepic #protectourwinters #crushit4climate #worldbicyclerelief #begood #cooperativeaction #cycling #cyclinglife https://www.instagram.com/p/CTH2Q3aA39l/?utm_medium=tumblr

Rory Macleod, you are a man of extraordinary magnitude. Throwing a dream job at Apple to the wind when it limited your true dream to explore the depths of human gratitude and connection, you mounted your bike and rebuilt yourself. You rode the circumference of the USA, literally fed by the kindness of strangers. There's now a year & a half of Europe under your belt and you're not about to stop. France is under your wheels now and in 2 months, you will continue your journey through southern Africa. The #PowerOfBicycles fills your sails. Your contagious positivity puts #BuffaloBicycles in the hands of students, health care workers and entrepreneurs in the same rural communities you will explore at the speed of pedal & chain. I commend your spirit; I hail your courage. You rode through Montreux, sharing your story as you have a thousand times, and we are forever touched. Our futures will cross again, I am certain. May your path be forever lined with loving souls with open hearts and minds. And may we all realize that the only difference between Rory and us is that most of us haven't yet taken the leap of faith he has. And by faith, I mean faith in our fellow humans, everywhere. Peeps - Rory is fundraising for #WorldBicycleRelief along his many, many miles. Already he has generated over $30,000 of his goal of $35,000 before heading to Africa!! All donations go directly to WBR, mobilizing the people of Africa and empowering girls in more than 13 countries! You can read his story, follow his journey, donate bikes to his cause, help with his expenses and even host him along the way (across France and in Africa) using the links below... Rory's WBR Fundraising Page: http://teamwbr.worldbicyclerelief.org/rorymacleod Rory's GoFundMe Page (to reach his cost goal of $5,000 for Africa): https://www.gofundme.com/roryrides And if you're stirred by his story, be sure to give him messages of support on FB as well- he loves people!

Day #1 Recap
Today we woke up after a refreshing night of sleep. After breakfast we headed to World Bicycle Relief, one of the beneficiaries of Bike Zambia. It’s actually probably my favorite because I love to see and hear the difference that a bike can make in a person's and/or family's life. When a child receives a bike, it means access to education. When a caregiver receives a bike, it means more clients they can see. When a family receives a bike, it means access to economic opportunities. I absolutely love what they do and encourage you to look into them. This visit was actually more fun than the 2013 because we got to see more about the manufacturing process of the bikes. In 2013 their shipment of bike components was held up in port so there wasn’t active manufacturing happening. After touring the facilities, we built a bike with native Zambian mechanic. It took about an hour to put it together. After heading back to camp we setup our bikes and got them fit. This year I brought my own pedals and also my bike computer so I can add our rides to strata. I am excited to get onto the bike tomorrow! World Bicycle Relief http:// worldbicyclerelief.org
