two wheel triumph Todays Best Use of a Bike Ever

You think hauling a bike on your messenger bag while on a bike is a good use of that bike (the ridden one, not the hauled one)? You think wee baby transport over the hills and valleys of your town is a good use of your bike? You think serving margaritas mixed by your own pedal action is a good use of your bike?

Well, they ARE. But this beats those:

Luich Akhter rides her bike into the poorest rural areas of Bangladesh to educate her society’s disenfranchised about health, social services, education and other important resources, often being their only source for critical intel that can improve their lives. A single, young woman in India, riding her bike into impoverished countrysides regardless of caste or personal safety issues.
