Today's world and administration is too often about building walls and stopping the mobility of people and ideas. Bikes Not Bombs is about tearing down those walls and reaching across the streets and oceans to help each other.

Bikes Not Bombs uses the bicycle as a vehicle for social change. They reclaim thousands of bicycles each year. They create local and global programs that provide skill development, jobs, and sustainable transportation. Their programs mobilize youth and adults to be leaders in community transformation.

This will be my sixth year riding in the Bike-a-Thon. Help me make this year the best for supporting Bikes Not Bombs' mission of self-empowerment and equality!
