Why we ride?

TransCerrado is more than a bike expedition.

It is an awareness ride to tell the stories of the Cerrado and the people who protect it. At a time when another severe El Niño could intensify droughts and wildfires, raising awareness has never been more urgent. And it is also a scientific expedition. During the trip, the researchers will collect information to advance Cerrado conservation science.

Tell us more about the proposed solution of the project.How will it work?

Along the way we will:

• showcase landscapes where conservation and agriculture meet;
• visit traditional Quilombola communities;
• cross protected areas such as Terra Ronca State Park;
• document both inspiring examples of sustainable land use and the growing pressures on the biome;
• share these stories through photos, videos and social media to reach a broad audience.

What will be the main activities of the project and how will the resources be applied?

This August, we'll ride 300 km across the Brazilian Cerrado (from Posse em Goiás to Taguatinga em Tocantins. Not for a race, but for a cause

Your contribution will help us fund communications related to the expedition. 

• a support vehicle;
• a photographer/journalist to document the journey;
• short videos, interviews and communication materials that will keep thousands of people informed throughout the expedition.

Every euro helps transform a bicycle journey into a powerful voice for one of the planet's most threatened ecosystems

Together, let's ride for biodiversity, water, climate—and the future of the Cerrado.Thank you for your support and follow us on https://www.instagram.com/bike_transcerrado/reels/
