Eat Sleep Cycle collaboration with Bicicletas Sin Fronteras
We are proud to present our collaboration with Bicicletas Sin Fronteras.
Over the coming years we plan to dedicate time, resources and money to supporting the charity in achieving its mission:
“Improve the quality of life of people living in less privileged situations by using bicycles as a tool for integration, equal opportunities and increased social mobility.”
Bicicletas Sin Fronteras was founded by passionate and energetic social entrepreneur Romà Boule from Girona.
When speaking with Romà about his charity, this is what he said:
“Since our focus is on education of young people and not on the bike as a transport tool, the bike can be simpler, lighter and cost effective. We believe that education is the key to improving the wellbeing of young people in the places we work.”
Why are you focusing on Senegal currently?
“We have worked in other areas including India. When visiting Senegal we noticed that the schools were already built across the country but the children had no way of getting there. We saw an opportunity to fill that gap.”
What makes you get out of bed each day?
“As well as loving the creativity needed in what I do (I am at heart an entrepreneur), I feel like if I help people, I also will be looked after.”
Romà took our hearts and our heads with this project and above all with his openness to any kind of donation or support.

I am co-founder of Eat Sleep Cycle. For 8 years we have created custom cycling experiences in Europe and beyond. We help our guests experience the very best cycling in Europe including Girona, the Pyrenees, Tuscany and the Dolomites, the French Alps, Andalucia and beyond. We specialize in customizing cycling experiences for groups, agencies and our corporate partners.We believe in empowering and motivating the local community to cycle so we also run vibrant Cycling Hubs in Girona and Málaga. Our Hubs are a place you can find all your cycling needs from bike hire to cyclist friendly food and great coffee.Through 10 years working as an engineer, operations manager and sales manager, the bike was always my escape – venturing to new places, meeting new people, seeing amazing things, suffering a bit. Now my focus is helping others to enjoy that same escape, whatever the level, age or nationality.I believe that cycling brings people together and Eat Sleep Cycle was born through this desire. Our vision is to bring down barriers through exploring the world on 2 wheels.
