Bikes4Ukraine – Cykler til Ukraine is a Danish non-profit that is sending used Danish bikes to Ukraine, in collaboration with the City of Lviv. Mikael Colville-Andersen, urban planner, was contacted by the City about how to design temporary bike lanes and source good, ready-to-use bikes for Ukrainians. He assembled a team of volunteers who are working on the project.
All proceeds for the fundraiser will go to sending bikes to Ukraine first – and then providing them with the tools to create temporary bikes lanes so people can cycle safely, in association with http://zicla.com in Barcelona.
Not only Lviv needs bikes. They need bikes for different reasons in places like Bucha and Kharkiv and many other cities. Cycling as transport and as a way to navigate the bombed city is so important.
The Bicycle as a Vital Tool in Times of War and Crisis:

Send to the 6 million people in donbass who have been under assault since 2014. Strong people indeed.
Nice initiative
Got you dogg. Just sent about $100.
You can really see how bikes work exceptionally well in wartime. Low maintenance, not an easy target for a missile like cars are sitting outside in the street. They can get through narrow spaces where a road might be too damaged for cars. And they don’t require any energy infrastructure to work.
Donbas and Luhansk Regions in Eastern Ukraine need more help than Western Ukraine as they had been suffering since 2014.
Jeg har et par cykler men jeg er i Odense, kan der være en samling i Odense?
People are trying to fight a war here not trying to go green or having a city cyclathon.pls give Ukrainians a break
Have u seen what Ukraine looks like?it's made of mud,even tanks don't survive there let alone bicycles.
Nazis love huffys!
But arn't these people (in the dondas) being under assault by the Ukraine army ? namely the Azov battalion ? the ones they have the Nazi wolfsangel on there uniform ? am i missing something here ?
This conflict has been going on since 2014 when the US backed a coup against the elected government. We didn't hear much from people like yourselves wanting to help those in the east of Ukraine in which 14000 have been killed and over 50,000 seriously injured. Don't the lives of those people matter? It seems not! Like so much else in the coverage of this war your project to send bikes to Ukraine looks like just another part of the mass propaganda campaign.
I've found your channel through Scysraper video, didn't expect to see that you are helping us in Ukraine. Thank you!
You should donate something to dombas a lugansk region.
Ukraine is totally corrupt….
With the $1.6billion plus half a dozen mansions, perhaps Zelenskiy could just buy every Ukranian a new bike!
How many bikes does $40billion US 'aid' get you?
The Ukrainians don't need your bikes. $40bn being sent by Bumbling Biden.
When you talk about helping Ukraine, is that actually true? Surely you are only talking about helping Western Ukraine? What about the people of Eastern Ukraine who have been suffering attacks from the side you're sending bikes to for the past 8 years? Supporting one side in a civil war is a way of fueling the war, causing more suffering, not decreasing it. Sure it's only bikes but it's the partisan support that sends a message to one side that they don't matter and the other side that they are doing the right thing! Please split the aid 50/50 if you want to help Ukraine rather than help destroy it.
