Santa Cleta is a cooperative not-for-profit project, an urban cycling center and a school of empowerment and mobility. Its philosophy is based in trying to become good at something simple: riding a bike. They believe firmly that the bicycle is the revolutionary mode of transportation of the here and now– it is a tool promoting environmental responsibility and individual empowerment, while being both a means of caring for oneself and one’s surroundings.
