maya pedal e’ un’associazione ong nata nel 1997 con lo scopo di aiutare lo sviluppo delle comunità rurali in guatemala, attraverso l’utilizzo delle “bicimacchine”.

while we work in maya pedal, the experiences of workshop and construction of the bicimaquinas (bicycle machines) are deeply interlaced with the mysticism in which the stories of the people we are knowing are wrapped.
mentre lavoriamo in maya pedal, le esperienze di officina e costruzione delle bicimacchine si intrecciano indissolubilmente con il misticismo in cui sono avvolti i racconti delle persone che stiamo conoscendo.

collaborating directly with the fantastic people who create the small staff of the organization, i have been able to understand how much is appreciated in guatemala and above all in the rural communities the activity of maya pedal: every day new interested people and associations come to visit the workshop or contact them, in order to buy and distribute the assembled machines on the territory. it’s so interesting to participate to the simple but brilliant production process of every bicimaquina, which is exclusively based on the utilization of parts of used bicycles, opportunely modified.
e’ interessantissimo partecipare direttamente al semplice ma geniale processo di produzione di ciascuna bicimacchina, che si basa esclusivamente sull’utilizzo di parti di biciclette usate ed opportunamente modificate.
