The document summarizes the process of preparing bicycles for shipment to Ghana to be distributed by the Village Bicycle Project. Key steps include removing pedals and turning handlebars to pack bikes more tightly in a shipping container. Over 500 bikes and parts were loaded into a 40-foot container in Ithaca, New York and shipped to Accra, Ghana. Once in Ghana, local bike mechanics will repair the bikes and sell them at affordable prices, as well as provide maintenance workshops to empower people to ride and fix their own bikes.
