What isBUBR

BUBR is a series of activations that encourages holistic wellness amongst the Black community. Our flagship activation is our annual 14-mile bike ride across London and we also have monthly activations including: Virtual BUBR Challenges, Ride With Us, Spin With Us and Run With Us sessions too. BUBR symbolises Black Unity, Black Empowerment and Black Community.

BUBRMission

To inspire the Black community to be active and prioritise our health and wellbeing from a 360-degree perspective. We achieve this by embracing a variety of wellness practices including; cycling, spinning, running, healthy nutrition, yoga and meditation.

BUBRHistory

The BUBR concept was conceived by community cycling collective Team ORIGIN on 16th July 2020. Just 15 days later, on Saturday 1st August 2020 we launched the inaugural BUBR event which led to a historical European first – where 1,500 Black people aged 8-68 rode a bike in solidarity through London on Black Pound Day.

Why doesBUBR exist
Black cyclists at all levels of the sport

There is under-representation of Black cyclists at all levels of the sport within the public domain, from elite level to grassroots.

According to Sport England research only 57% of Black people are considered active in the UK, which is lower than the majority of other ethnic groupings.

BUBR provides a safe space where cyclists and riders from diverse backgrounds can feel welcomed and also inspired to get active and remain so.
