What role can bicycles play in changing lives?

Karolin Windhuber shares how one company is making a significant impact by providing bicycles and maintenance education in developing countries. During her 3,000-kilometer cycle ride from Germany to Turkey, she raised awareness and funds for World Bicycle Relief.

Karolin discovered the beauty of slow travel, the power of social media in fundraising, and the heartfelt connections made along the way. Her journey underscores the profound impact of cycling and the meaningful change it can bring to communities across the globe.

Catch up with Karolin on Instagram @la.vida.lokaro or LinkedIn and donate on her fundraising page. Learn more about World Bicycle Relief and Buffalo Bicycles.
