In January 2015 Hans Rey and Tom Oehler set out to explore the Highlands of Guatemala in Central America. The hut trip was at a pretty high altitude above 10’000 ft., the trails were rough and remote. At the end of the back country bike ride the guys checked out a former Wheels 4 Life charity project and handed out an additional 31 bicycles at an incredible local school, a very inspirational project indeed. Back in Austria, photographer Stefan Voitl raised more money for Hans’ non-profit charity by organizing a photo exhibition from the trip.
