I'm participating in the Bike-A-Thon because I believe in the importance of promoting peace and ending conflicts around the world—every human life is irreplaceable and should be cherished. This event, hosted by Bikes Not Bombs, aims to raise funds to support global and local initiatives that use bicycles as tools for empowerment and positive change. Biking is not only a sustainable and environmentally friendly form of transportation, but it also brings communities together and fosters independence. By participating, I hope to contribute to a better future, one pedal at a time.
