The Resolution Race Project

Resolution Race

Join the race against climate change

Four women, two cargo bikes, six days, Edinburgh to Copenhagen. What could possibly go wrong? In 2019, The Adventure Syndicate set out to challenge body and mind. Resolution Race was not a race in the traditional sense, but a demonstration of how far collective resolve, collaboration and kindness can take us in the race to save our planet.

Check out the route and how each day played out using the map below.

“We’re not doing this to send the message to everyone that cargo bikes will reverse climate change and make us all feel amazing. It’s much more complex than that. We know not everyone can afford a bike let alone a specialist one that can carry your kids and shopping. But the way we move around now isn’t fair. Our most deprived areas are the ones being worst affected by vehicle emissions, and on the other side of the world people are suffering the consequences of our excessive carbon production.” (Lee Craigie)

Climate change presents the biggest existential threat that we have ever faced. Time is running out, but together we can resolve to race against the climate and ecological emergency. The Resolution Race Project is all about thinking differently, challenging normalised behaviours in ourselves and others and about finding balance in a more sustainable path through life.
