Pedal to Empower 2026 (USD)

Our Total Distance

7,865.75 KM

We're pedaling to empower women and girls around the world.

Join us for an adventure on two wheels. 

We are excited to help change lives through the Power of Bicycles! Together, we are raising funds and awareness for World Bicycle Relief, a global nonprofit organization committed to helping individuals overcome the barrier of distance in developing communities around the world.

If you want to pedal along, click 'Join the Team' and be a part of the fun. If you want to support with a donation, you will be helping get more women and girls on bikes in countries around the world to achieve independence and thrive. This year, with more than 1 million Buffalo Bicycles on the road, there’s no better time to join the movement that’s mobilizing the next generation of women and girls. Because 1 million mobilized is just the beginning.

Come join the squad!

Welcome SRAMmies, to another Pedal to Empower!

- $165 supplies a Buffalo Bicycle through WBR's programs, mobilizing some 5 individuals* to go further, go faster and go empowered towards a brighter future. 

4. Track your KMs - link your Strava/Hammerhead and help us crush the leaderboards. No matter how you ride, every kilometer adds up. From May 4 - June 30, our partners will contribute $1 for every kilometer ridden. turning your collective movement into meaningful progress and opportunity for women and girls. When you ride, she rides. 

*Our bicycles have a multiplier effect. In areas where World Bicycle Relief operates, the median household size exceeds five people. As many as five people can experience the positive impact from just one Buffalo Bicycle.
