John Hipkin paid us a visit in April 2006 to see why we have become the most reviewed and talked about shop in the city.
We had a selection of bikes ready for him to try just like we do for all our customers; and he quickly took the opportunity to have some fun.
It was a delight and of course an honour to have this visit. It was clear that the mayor had an interest not only in the technology involved in our electric bikes but in their potential to change our society for the benefit of health and the environment.
Still a keen cyclist at the age of 71 John became quite fond of one of our models saying that it would help him up Castle Hill at the end of a long day on his feet.
A few pictures of the visit:
