Join Intrepid's Buffalo Ride, support women & girls in rural regions

The Buffalo Ride is back on Sunday (May 3) with Intrepid Travel calling on the travel industry to get on their bikes whether in Melbourne, Seattle, or anywhere in the world and help raise CAD $164,000 to support women and girls in rural communities through access to transport.

Led by The Intrepid Foundation in support of World Bicycle Relief, the global cycling initiative invites businesses, teams and individuals to ride anywhere, anytime throughout May, turning kilometre into life-changing impact.

Women and girls in low-income rural regions continue to face long, unsafe journeys to access education, healthcare and work. Without reliable transport, opportunities remain out of reach.

Through the Buffalo Ride, every CAD $240 raised funds a purpose-built Buffalo Bicycle providing a simple, immediate solution that can transform access, safety and livelihoods.  

“The Buffalo Bike Ride is a yearly tradition and reminder of the direct impact our business and people can have on the communities we work with. Every kilometre we ride this May represents a real step forward for women and girls who simply need reliable transport to access education, healthcare and opportunity," said Christian Wolters, president of Canada at Intrepid Travel. 

Ride your way this May

On Sunday, May 3, riders around the world will take part in the Buffalo Ride, but participation is designed to be flexible. Join a local ride or host your own ride anywhere, anytime throughout May. Ride solo or as a team, choose your distance, and fundraise in a way that works for you. 

A North American ride is being hosted along the Marin Goodman Trail in Toronto, ON  on April 30th. Participants can join the Intrepid Canada team in reaching their CA$3,000 goal, or ride independently from anywhere and donate. 

With under a week to go, organizers are urging more industry players to sign up and help accelerate progress towards the CAD $164,000 global goal.
