By combining these objectives, we create a positive impact on both the environment and the lives of the people in Tanzania.

2. WHAT WE OFFER:

That's why we offer a wide range of high-quality bikes for rent, ensuring that locals and tourists alike can experience the freedom and adventure of cycling through the beautiful landscapes of Tanzania.

3. SOCIAL IMPACT INITIATIVES:

a) One Bike Workshop: We are committed to empowering our community by offering training programs and employment opportunities at the One Bike Workshop. Here, local individuals are provided with the necessary skills to become skilled mechanics, enabling them to pursue a rewarding career in the cycling industry. By investing in the local workforce, we contribute to the growth and development of the community.

We organize a weekly, in-shop mechanical training program for youth. It’s an opportunity for kids of all ages to develop professional skills, create a stream of income and serve their community. It’s our hope they become bicycle ambassadors within their social circles and spread the One Bike love.

One Bike Tanzania has extended the workshop by training and developing skills for youths who wish to become cycling guides, recognizing the growing cycling industry in Tanzania and neighbouring countries. The project is committed to producing qualified mechanics and cycling guides to match the industry's growing needs.

b) Recycling Tours: In line with our commitment to sustainability, we organize recycling tours that promote environmental consciousness and responsible tourism. These tours educate participants on the importance of recycling and provide insights into the local efforts to protect the natural beauty of Tanzania. By engaging visitors in these initiatives, we aim to create a sense of environmental responsibility and encourage sustainable practices.

During our monthly Re-Cycling Tour, we unite tourists and locals to cycle around Moshi, collecting plastic bottles for recycling with a backpack sourced from repurposed materials. We also partner with local schools to teach kids about sustainability and the importance of showing up for the Planet.

Conclusion:

One Bike Shop #1 stands as a testament to the power of combining a love for cycling, sustainable tourism, and community empowerment. With our comprehensive range of bike services, exceptional coffee, and commitment to social impact, we invite bike lovers from all walks of life to experience the beauty of Tanzania in a meaningful way.
