What we do
First and foremost, Bike Scouts is a community with the goal of building true local resilience to climate change and climate-driven disasters.
We ride our bicycles for fun, sport, and most importantly to build a sense of community around local resilience wherever we ride.
As a community, we help each other whenever and wherever there's a need for local support in the aftermath of disaster events using whatever we have that we can share with others.
We help others become resilient by sharing local knowledge, skills, resources, and technology we've built ourselves including an AI-enabled disaster reporting app, our own mesh network for resilient connectivity, and a portable 6kw solar energy trailers and towers with integrated water filtration system that provides the basic essential off-grid.
