Cycle to Ignite Humanity™ Sets Sights on a World Record for the Most Elevation Gained on a Tandem Bike in North America, 305, 000 feet in 80 Days; Equaling 10 times Mount Everest, while Building a Better Future Through Education

In an extraordinary effort to inspire change and uplift communities, global thought leaders Lady JB Owen and Peter Giesin have embarked on a record-breaking tandem cycling journey from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to Homer, Alaska, last week. Their mission? To Ignite Humanity™, one pedal stroke at a time while raising awareness and support for Inspiration Classrooms™, a global initiative delivering educational opportunities and sustainably built learning facilities to underserved areas around the world.

The ambitious endeavor, called Cycle to Ignite Humanity, spans 9,037.6 kilometers with an elevation gain of 305,000 feet or 9500 meters, equivalent to ten times the height of Mount Everest. Over 80 days, the pair will ride through three countries, pushing physical and mental limits in pursuit of a World Record. More than a monumental athletic feat, the ride symbolizes the power of human determination and the transformative impact of education.

“Our goal is to show what’s possible when we come together to support one another,” says Lady JB Owen, founder of Ignite Publishing and visionary behind Ignite Humanity. “We’re cycling to create conversations, spark inspiration, and bring tangible educational resources to communities that need them most.”

This is not their first ride to raise awareness. The couple cycled 5,000 km, across five provinces, to Canada’s capital in 2020. In 2021, the duo cycled 7,000km throughout western Canada to Alaska. 2022 saw them travel 10,000km coast to coast from Vancouver to Newfoundland, and in 2023, they rode their tandem bike from Canada to the tip of the Baja Peninsula, Mexico.   

As they ride, Lady JB and Peter will be stopping in towns and cities across North America to host community events, connect with changemakers, and encourage individuals to join the movement. The couple invites schools, organizations, and everyday people to get involved, whether by riding along for a leg of the journey, contributing to the building of an Inspiration Classroom, or spreading the word about the cause.

Inspiration Classrooms are eco-conscious, modular learning spaces designed to be deployed in regions where education is limited or inaccessible. Built using sustainable practices and materials, each classroom becomes a beacon of hope, possibility, and transformation. The couple has already built two schools in Indonesia. 

“Education is the key to Igniting Humanity,” adds Peter Giesin. “We’re riding to open hearts, build futures, and empower individuals everywhere with the tools they need to thrive.”

About Ignite Humanity

Ignite Humanity is a global movement dedicated to building compassion, empathy, and unity through acts of service, community connection, and transformational education. Through storytelling, philanthropy and purpose-driven initiatives, the movement raises awareness around critical global issues, especially the importance of education, and brings people together to uplift and empower others.

Having built two schools already in Indonesia, the initiative exemplifies what’s possible when communities unite for a greater cause. By championing access to learning, Ignite Humanity shines a spotlight on education as a powerful force for change.

Lady JB Owen shares: “We all have to make humanity our responsibility, and that responsibility starts with each one of us”.

As part of their mission, Lady JB and Peter are also proud supporters of the Los Cabos Children Foundation, further extending their commitment to uplifting young lives through compassionate action.

Rising Music Artist ROHAN Builds a New Sound Between Indie Rock, R&B, and Technology

Published

on

ROHAN (stylized as ROHAN), is an Australian-born musician, singer-songwriter, and music producer who blends indie rock, R&B, electronic, and folk influences into emotional, genre-defying songs. Growing up between Australia and Singapore, ROHAN first learned piano from his Indian mother before discovering his love for punk music through Green Day’s American Idiot.

Now based in California, ROHAN has built a career at the intersection of music and technology. After enrolling at Stanford University, he chose to drop out and focus full-time on his creative path. From his DIY home studio, he produces and records his own music — characterized by confessional lyrics, melodic grit, and digital textures that bridge his global background and technical roots.

“ROHAN’s music is honest and alive,” says Romy Bayhack of Big Hassle, who represents the artist. “He’s building a new sound that connects emotion, innovation, and identity.”

ROHAN’s creative story — from coding computers to composing songs — mirrors a new generation of independent artists redefining the boundaries between technology and art. His upcoming releases promise to push that vision even further, blending emotional storytelling with cutting-edge sound design.

Fans can connect with ROHAN on Instagram @rohanx for the latest updates, music drops, and behind-the-scenes content.

About ROHAN

Scroll Up Magazine Launches the First Hip-Hop Magazine to Bring Social Media, Viral Content, and Street Culture Directly to Those Behind Bars

Published

on

This month marks the launch of Scroll Up Magazine, the culture’s newest voice and the first publication designed specifically to bridge the gap between the incarcerated community and the rapidly evolving world of hip-hop, social media, and street culture.

Founded by Crystal Gotti and Richie Forbes, Scroll Up Magazine addresses a critical need: keeping those behind bars connected to the culture they helped build but have been locked out of experiencing. For the estimated 1.9 million people currently incarcerated in the United States, staying connected to family, friends, and the cultural movements happening on the outside has never been more challenging – or more important.

“You don’t scroll the jack – you scroll the page,” says Crystal Gotti, Co-Founder and Culture Editor. “Some of our readers haven’t touched down in years. They have no idea what a TikTok video looks like, what’s trending on Instagram, or what’s moving the culture right now. We bring the world to their hands – unfiltered, unbought, and unstoppable.”

What Makes Scroll Up Different:

Unlike traditional magazines, Scroll Up Magazine transforms the digital experience into print, featuring:

Viral TikTok videos captured as photo sequences with captions Instagram posts pulled directly from the timeline Memes, video stills, and social media moments that define the culture. 

Issue One launches with a powerful cover story: 

“Welcome Home Pooh Shiesty” An in-depth feature on the Memphis rapper’s recent release from federal custody after three years, his welcome home celebration, and his plan to reclaim his throne in hip-hop. 

Who This Magazine Serves:

Scroll Up Magazine is essential reading for:

Incarcerated individuals seeking connection to the culture and current events. Families and loved ones of the incarcerated who want to send meaningful, engaging content and Hip-hop enthusiasts who value authentic, street-level perspectives.

Scroll Up Magazine offers more than entertainment – it offers hope, connection, and proof that the culture hasn’t moved on without them.
