Americans bought an estimated 18 and a half million bicycles last year. Some bikes never get much riding. 71 But a project based in Washington is putting unwanted bikes from the United States to good use in developing countries.

Keith Oberg is the director of Bikes for the World. He said, “Everybody has an old bicycle, and it is usually not ridden. 72 ”

Bikes for the World collects bicycles and delivers them at low cost to community programs in developing countries. The bicycle recycling program is one of the largest in the United States. It is a sponsored project of the Washington Area Bicyclist Association.

73 Since then it has shipped more than 40,444 bikes to communities in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, says director Keith Oberg.

Bikes for the World partners with nonprofit groups in the United States to collect unwanted bikes. Then it works with nonprofit in the other countries to get the bikes to organizations and individuals that need them the most.

For example, the Bicycle Empowerment Network Namibia uses the bikes to provide transportation for health workers. 74 The organization also has bicycle ambulance services to transport the sick.

The Bicycle Empowerment Net work also provides training and support to help local organizations and individuals open bike shops of their own. The businesses sell the recycled bikes at low cost and provide repair services. 75

At the first time in my life I was interviewed by an university professor for a teaching position at a high school. I was very excited that as soon as I sat down I started to introduce myself in English before I asked to. But to my puzzlement, I saw, out of the corner of his eyes, that the professor was becoming impatient. He said my speaking English contained too much bad idioms and non-American expressions. I felt hurt and discourage. I stood up in silence and made for the door. Three years has been passed but the job interview still remained fresh in my mind.
