Spoke 'n Revolutions Youth Cycling the Mission The mission of Spoke ‘n Revolutions Youth Cycling (SnR) is to inspire high potential youth that come from home environments with few resources to pursue personal success while preparing them for leadership roles in their community. the Vision We believe that every child has the potential to become greater than they think themselves to be. At the core of that belief is the knowledge that creating opportunities through physical and mental challenges allow them to grow, become more confident and learn more about themselves and the world than any classroom could provide. Quoting Milton Chen*, a Senior Fellow and Executive Director emeritus at Edutopia, "This is project based learning at its best". This leads them to become caring, productive, forward thinking citizens in a local and global society. * Mr. Milton Chen wrote an article about the Spoke'n Revolutions Youth Cycling program after hearing about it during the 2011 Network to Freedom conference in which SnR Cyclists presented.
