WBR has provided hundreds of thousands of bikes to people in need in 6 different countries. 779,000 to be exact with a goal of 1Mill by 2025! These are not just any bike, they have been specifically designed to be ultra simple and durable. They call them Buffalo's, it is a 50lb beast of a bike that is made to be ultra durable and capable of carrying up to 220lbs of cargo. The bicycles that are donated help people in need with getting around in a more efficient way. This can mean the difference between a child going to school or not, being able to get water to the family in less than half the time, healthcare in a timely manner, etc. All kinds of fantastic outcomes that are made possible thanks to the increased mobility of the bicycle. As you can imagine this can be life changing not just for the recipient but his surrounding friends and family as well.

For as little as $165 you can provide a complete Buffalo bicycle and change lives forever. The donated bicycles are just part of the story with WBR be sure to listen to this one and check out their website at www.worldbicyclerelief.org you can also find great content on youtube.
