Seven days a week, 23-year-old Galson Mgaya rides from his remote village of Mtwango to the nearest city of Makambako, Tanzania. He straps 20 chickens to the back of his bicycle and then sells them in the city for twice what they'd go for in his small town. The trip takes him 3.5 hours each way, but it's worthwhile because he makes about $8 each day. His daily profit helps support his parents and two sisters.
