Occasionally Peace Pedalers appears in the international media. When it happens, we'll post here (if we know about it). The first and second stage rounded up close to 100 media sources with an audience estimated at about 700 million. Getting in the media helps spread a much needed positive word in a regularly negative media stream, encourages folks to practice random acts of kindness and get the Live Big, Give Big, Love Big movement going. It also helps us meet sponsor expectations (and we need our sponsors). So let your local media know about us and we'll send them some photos and cool content. Thanks for your help! To receive a media kit email us.
