Thanks little brororo for putting this experience on the big screen. You have done a lovely job of capturing the faces and voices of this special place and I wish all the peeps of MP could see this! yay! Everyone should watch this to understand the impact a simple idea can have on a community's autonomy and ability to move forward economically. Two feet and a bike! BEN is an amazing organization and anyone headed to capetown should check them out! woohoo!! Thank you to all the wonderful people of MP that shared your stories with us so that we could spread the word about life in the townships, the energy held within, motivation, hope, and the way future can be with you current viewers! Tell your friends!

Another great video Jarratt! What an inspirational story. Micro lending businesses such as this are such an amazing way to empower people and to begin that long journey out of poverty. Thanks for sharing it!

It should empower everybody.

Power to the bicycle! I think it would be an incredible experience to ride bikes with people from around the world. Bicycles are the only way to truly experience transportation!

cool video - covers what we did in this township during the summer - we had a great time with the Bicycle Empowerment Network, visiting a creche/Library and a local B&B. If you are heading to Cape Town, you need to visit because this is really hopeful stuff!
