How Much Can Bicycles Change Communities? | World Bicycle Relief On GCN

Today with World Bicycle Relief, we visited Chris to find out how the ownership of a Buffalo Bicycle has changed the way he is able to farm in rural Zambia.

As a dairy farmer, Chris needs to take his milk to the distribution centre twice daily after milking. The 4km journey would be almost impossible on foot, with a heavy 40 litre container full of milk.

Robust Buffalo Bicycles have made farming dairy cattle possible in the Palabana region of Zambia, where many farmers in the area rely on their Buffalo Bicycles day in, day out to get their produce to market.

When we arrived at the milk distribution centre along with the many other Buffalo Bicycles, the impact of the bicycles on this local farming community was clear.

Please help us raise over 300 bicycles for World Bicycle Relief here 👉http://gcn.eu/WBR20
