Pedalink

Founder’s story

Back on the bike.
Building with purpose.

I’m Vivan, a passionate 16-year-old cyclist who lives and dreams about cycling.

Why I’m building Pedalink

The freedom that keeps me riding.

Cycling is my freedom: early starts, steep climbs and the joy of going further than yesterday.

Every ride brings a chance to explore, clear my head and spend time doing what I love.

An accident interrupted that freedom and left me with a fractured elbow. In a moment, a familiar ride became a situation where I needed someone else’s help.

My fracture · the start of my journey back

A close friend reached my parents and helped me get immediate care at a nearby hospital. I was lucky to have someone beside me who knew whom to call.

One surgery, three screws and 19 staples followed. Recovery meant four months away from cycling before I gradually found my way back to the bike.

Later, one thought stayed with me: what if I had been alone? Not every rider has a friend beside them when something happens. So I built Pedalink to create a small connection to someone who cares, even when you are riding alone.

“An accident could interrupt my journey without defining it.”
