Quito, Pichincha

“My first bicycle was a red BMX. My brothers and I always used it. Not taking turns, but the four at the same time. One day we got hurt, but that very much determined my passion and connection with the bike. I was able to rediscover myself, handle the fear and conquer the city by mentoring other women with the “Bike Maidens” Program. We position the bike as a sustainable and accesible transport system for women”.
