Welcome to my page! Let me tell you more about why I'm riding...
Howdy!
As you probably already know since you somehow made it to my page, my name is Montell (but my friends call me Monty) and I am a 22 year old recent grad of Northeastern University, right in the heart of Boston. Originally hailing from Accra, Ghana; Boston has become a second home to me where I have been welcomed with open arms. My affection for this city runs deep and it, without a doubt, would not be the same without the cycling community.
From Friday Night City Rides to Boston Bike Party, the friends I have made through sharing in this sport and lifestyle we are all connected by make this entire experience worth it: this community is the reason why I ride. Since joining Bikes Not Bombs earlier this year as a Youth Organizer, working with my apprentices and introducing them to civic engagement while watching them grow as human beings has been the highlight of the work I do on a daily basis. It is this commitment to youth empowerment and diversity in the world of cycling that has me excited to ride as a member of the BrothersOnBikes/WomenOnWheels team.
Please consider donating whatever you are able to in order to help support these two fantastic organizations and the amazing work they do! Thank you for your time and support. I hope to see you on a bike sometime soon and share some laughs. Until then...
