Meet Wimbie & Alba 🐦💙🐦
Every great journey needs a guide.
This is Wimbie, the Whimbrel we’ll be following from Alaska to Patagonia as we cycle 30,000 km along the Pacific Flyway. Wimbie represents the incredible migrations that connect continents, cultures, and ecosystems.
Alongside Wimbie is Alba. In Spanish, Alba means “dawn”—a symbol of new beginnings and hope. Hope for migratory birds, hope for healthy ecosystems, and hope that together we can inspire more people to care for the natural world.
Through Wings of Survival, Wimbie and Alba will help tell the story of one of the world’s most remarkable migrations and remind us that every action, no matter how small, can help protect the places wildlife depends on.
Follow along as we race with nature from Alaska to Patagonia, sharing stories, science, conservation, and adventure—one pedal stroke and one wingbeat at a time.
Join our flock. The journey is just beginning. 🩵

Every year, an estimated 1.7 million birds pass through the Fraser River Estuary which birds depend on for rest and refueling, before they continue their journey.
We are excited to support the Wings of Survival expedition as they visit one of Canada's most important migratory bird habitats along their journey.
By following the remarkable migration of the Hudsonian Whimbrel from Alaska to Patagonia, the expedition is helping connect people with the places that sustain life across continents, and inspiring the next generation of environmental stewards along the way.
We're proud to be part of that story, find out more about their expedition at www.wingsofsurvival.com

10 days to go.
After five years of dreaming, planning, training, fundraising, and overcoming countless obstacles, we’re just 10 days away from the start of Wings of Survival.
Soon we’ll begin cycling 30,000 km from Alaska to Patagonia, following the Pacific Flyway to share the incredible story of migratory birds and the ecosystem we all depend on. This journey is about impact storytelling through endurance sports, science and education. We hope inspire people to reconnect with nature.
The next 10 days will be a whirlwind of packing, final logistics, media, bike prep, and making sure every last detail is ready before we roll out. It’s going to be busy—but we can’t wait to bring you behind the scenes.
If you believe in what we’re doing, you can make a huge difference:
