Happy Bike to Work Day!
Next week, please join us as this party is going to go be spectacular. All welcome, but please RSVP with link below. Winnipeg meets Amsterdam for an evening. You don't have to be a customer to try one or compete in the Dutch Slow Biking Dinking (Doubling) Race or enjoy the music or have a beer and be merry.
Kindly, Anders
Plain Bicycle Party + Pick UpYou're invited to attend.
Dear new plain bicycle owner and friends,
The moment we’ve all been waiting for is here! The shipment has arrived from the Netherlands. We are finally going to see them on the streets of Winnipeg! The bikes survived their Atlantic journey, are being reassembled for you right now and are eager to meet their owners. Join us for a party to celebrate the achievement and pick up your bike. There will be live DJs, storytelling, a dinking* race, and more. Invitation and details on the next page.
A huge thank you to the bike owners for your support, enthusiasm and endurance. For some, it has been almost a year and a half since you signed up. This project was only possible because of your patience and imagination. In buying a Dutch bike you are helping Winnipeggers (and North America) catch a glimpse of what the future of transportation looks like. Also a huge thank you to Torrin, Jan, Jamie, Mendert, Danny, Mikael, Fritz, Bas, Erwin, Charlton, Jon, Dan, Herbert, Michel, Ian, Keilewerf, Local Motion, Dave and The Forks crew, Give-A-Bike, Havensteder, Den Haag Fietspunt, Winnipeg Trails and everyone else in Rotterdam, Utrecht, Amsterdam, Den Haag and Winnipeg who helped make this possible.
Sincerely,
Leigh Anne and Anders The Plain Bicycle Project
