My name is Larry Lessard, I am 62 years old and trying to
reach my peak this year by doing the most demanding
thing I have ever attempted, and before arthritis takes my
knees away for good. I want to cycle most of the way
around the world in one year in a low CO₂ emissions
journey to help educate people to become conscious
about the health of the planet.
Follow us and join me along the way.

At the age of 62, McGill professor of Mechanical Engineering Larry Lessard has created the Bike62 Project, a low CO₂ emission journey combining Cycling and Recycling.
Bike62 will be cycling around the world from July 2022 to August 2023, a journey that will cover over 20,000Km, visit around 25 countries, and speak at 25 universities to promote ways to rethink and reuse composite materials.
A major call to action in this initiative is related to the need to recycle huge wind turbine blades, which have a short 20-25 year life span, are made of fibreglass and should not end up in landfill as is currently happening. Larry and his team are developing solutions to solve this problem
