About Us

Our Mission

Biking for a Better World (BBW) is a 501(c)(3) California Non-Profit Corporation, established 2006. We use the power of pedaling to bring bicycles to people who need them. Through charity bike tours, day rides, and annual fundraising events, we raise awareness and funds for communities in need of bicycles to improve their quality of life. We share our passion for the bike, inspiring and enabling others to ride. In essence, we transform the act of pedaling into a force to make the world a better place.
