Break the Cycle is an effort to build and promote cycling in the Black, Indigenous, People Of Color communities that is being led by Quality Bicycle Products.
Recognizing that the cycling industry has not been very inclusive of these communities, Break the Cycle is a means to change how the cycling industry engages with these communities though courses on cycling and bicycle maintenance.
Break the Cycle is intended to be used as a blueprint to create consistent engagement and education with BIPOC communities. Break the Cycle has partnered with dedicated non-profits who are local to the community, and desire to be part of the change, to host these programs.
