Special Guest Miiro Michael - Founder & Chairman of Masaka Cycling Club.

"For us, the first aspect is for these girls to build their self-esteem, believe in themselves, believe they can change this world, believe they can be mentors & examples to other young girls."

Since opening G!RO in 2013, we've had the pleasure of meeting some amazing and brilliant people. Miiro Michael of Masaka Cycling Club is quite honestly one of the most inspiring people we have met & it was an absolute pleasure to speak with him on this podcast.

Having suffered with Polio as a child, leaving him with disability, Miiro has had to overcome challenges and adversity throughout his life, and is now a Human Rights activist based in Masaka, Uganda. Seeing the potential and power of cycling, he set up Masaka Cycling Club with the simple goal to see men, women, boys and girls of all ages and all abilities, build their self esteem & allow hope in their lives where previously there had been none.

As well as nurturing the next generation of professional cyclists, Miiro's passion is to see cycling break down social barriers of disability, women's rights, gender based violence & education in Uganda - one bike ride at a time! Miiro is an incredibly inspiring man, and we were honoured to spend some time with him on this podcast.

April sees G!RO launch its Communities Building Communities campaign, where we set out the goal of increasing monthly donations to Masaka Cycling Club. More information on that to follow, but this podcast serves as the perfect starting point to understand and see the work being done there in Masaka. Be sure to check out the previous Masaka podcasts with Ross Burrage & Michael Delagrange. (links below)

An inspiring and significant listen.

So sit back, grab a brew & enjoy!
