Stationary bikes are set into motion, liberated from glorified storage where they are collecting dust. Now the bikes are hitting the streets, with people riding them to better health.
This is part of a campaign from Nescau, Nestle’s malted chocolate beverage brand in Brazil, which takes a more critical stance against kids’ sedentary lifestyles and the dangers of a life without exercise.

Eighty percent of prospective Generation Beta parents agree that in an ideal world, parents would start saving for their child’s retirement from birth. In fact, the No. 1 regret among current and prospective parents is that they “didn’t save more for my retirement.”
The campaign launches with this “Generations” film--directed by Chris Smith via production house SMUGGLER--which interviews Boomers, Gen X, Millennials and Gen Z on what defines their generation.
