Turning Values Into Action
Traveling on two feet or two wheels is one of the most planet-friendly ways to explore, but we know even active travel affects the world around us. Focusing on three core pillars—our people, our planet and our community—we take a holistic, action-driven approach to making a positive impact, both on and off the road.

Cuba Community Ride
By Mitra Ghaffari
Supported by Backroads’ Give Back Field Project, Trip Leader Mitra Ghaffari brought together artist-cyclists from Cuba and beyond for a three-week, 600-mile bike tour through eastern Cuba. Along the way, the team connected with local youth, led art and music workshops, distributed supplies and built meaningful community connections.
