Synopsis

The freelance journalist Richard Lukwago presents a reportage about the construction of bycicles made from bamboo through an interview with the manufacturer of the bycicles from Uganda, explaining their qualities and the building methods. His bamboo bycicles are completely handmade with real bamboo reeds and they perfectly works. Because of the strenght, the hardness and the toughness of bamboo, the bamboo bike is reliable as any other bycicle, using, moreover, raw materials making a common source more valuable and, in the meanwhile, improving the domestic economy.
