[…] TBH-favourite asilvertouch posted up a review of Earthed 3: Europa. If you haven’t had the privilege of watching either of the two previous Earthed installments, check out the trailer for the new video from Alex Rankin — it’s well worth it. And, speaking of mountain bike flicks, the trailer for Roam — the new video from the team that brought you The Collective — is now online and available for your viewing pleasure. Last, but not least is the sneak peek for Back In The Saddle 3. Elsewhere, Continental Tires and Shimano have joined up with Kona to support the Bike Town Africa project. BikeMagic posted a review of the Specialized WindJacket Pro. The boys over at Blue Collar Mtb. found a great article discussing a 19th century bike suspension platform. There’s a good interview with Scot Nicol from Ibis Bikes on Shut Up and Drink the Kool-Aid. […]

Dear President,

We are pleased to introduce ourselves us a Non Governmental Organisation called ADERSH : (Action for Rural, Social, aand Humanitarian Development) well established and registered in TOGO (West Africa) under the number 112 MPAT dated January 15, 1997. We are interested in:

1- The promotion of Non- motorized transportation (Bicycle as working tool or transportation means for women). BESAUSE: Rural women and children cover long distances on foot every day, carrying heavy loads their head. This is a time and energy consuming job. A bicycle can break the vicious circle of poverty and offer women the chance to climb out of poverty.

2- Promotion of Women rights in rural milieu, and

3- Training program in favour of women.

We are looking for Partners who can grant us used bicycles for supporting our objectives.

We would be grateful for the measures you will take in order to establish a co-operation relationship with your Organization..
Sincerely yours,

Mrs Akouvi ACCOLATSE, Project coordinator
