			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We  wanted to let you know about Kiva (<a title="Link to Kiva" href="http://www.kiva.org" target="_blank">www.kiva.org</a>), a non-profit organisation that allows you to lend as little as $25 (USD) to a specific low-income entrepreneur across the globe.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve decided to lend some money to people who rely on transport for their income. They could be providing courier services, taxi service or it&#8217;s just transport to get them to their paying jobs. The people we loan to live in third world countries and rely heavily on their equipment to sustain their income.</p>
<p>Our original focus was on transportation in South East Asia, where we are helping some people in Cambodia. We&#8217;re currently assisting some people in the Philippines.</p>
<p>With Kiva, you choose who to lend to &#8211; whether a baker in Afghanistan, a goat herder in Uganda, a farmer in Peru, a restaurateur in Cambodia, or a tailor in Iraq &#8211; and as they repay their loan, you get your money back.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a powerful and sustainable way to empower someone right now to lift themselves out of poverty.</p>
<p>Think about it, if you&#8217;re reading this page it&#8217;s because you love and have a passion for motorcycle riding. You&#8217;ve probably purchased a motorcycle for your spare time enjoyment.</p>
<p>In a sense, us who live in first world countries are consumers of the motorcycling way of life. Well, there are others who rely on Motorcycling as a way to put food on the table. It&#8217;s about time we put our money where our mouth is and help some of our fellow riders who need a hand with a loan. It maybe be to improve their business, or it may be to keep things going. Whatever it is, they need some assistance, and we can help.</p>
<p>So here&#8217;s the challenge, join us at Kiva and start helping.</p>
