Adventures in Bamboo
How too much bamboo and not enough bikes led to some quality innovation in Ghana.
Entry
For those of you that follow the behind the scenes adventures of Slash you’ll know that we love bikes, we love them so much we have our own bike company - Kingdom.
We also love making things, getting our heads and our hands wrapped around problems and finding impactful solutions. It’s the curiosity of making and it has a strong kick whenever we see someone making something truly impressive, like a bamboo bicycle.
This ride out of Ghana might not be the prettiest bike we’ve ever seen but anyone who can pull this off jumps very near the top of our impressive people list.
