Yelaine Barrizonte Reine et Yarasay Jorrin Gomez, Cuba Histoire de vélo

Yelaine works at the Raul Suarez Martinez school. She had to walk 2 km to go to school since she lives in a remote area. Her young son’s asthma condition made the walk much more difficult. “Since I have a bike, everything has changed. I can bring my son to the hospital and to school.”

Yarasay  is a teacher at the Raul Suarez Martinez school. She had to walk a long distance to accomplish her daily tasks. “The bicycle has been of great utility for me. Before, I had to walk everywhere and I would be exhausted. Biking now allows me to work and study.”
