Like I’ve said in the past, cycling brings plenty of advantages. Every day, almost 500,000 bicycle journeys are made in London. Since 2000, nearly twice as many people travel by bike. In “Undiscovered Business Entrepreneurs” by Star Alliance, journalist Yasmine Chinwala and photographer James Stroud meet the entrepreneur whose extraordinary idea developed into one of the world’s most loved bicycles.

Wouldn’t you like to own one of these? I sure do!

I want one! This bike looks very “non-threatening” – very rider-friendly and good for the environment, of course!

Without a doubt. Apart from being environmentally-friendly, they also have a pretty cool design!
Here’s all available models if anyone wants to take a look http://www.brompton.co.uk/page.asp?p=3060

Perhaps he bought it in Veloform http://www.veloform.se/ – the only retailer in Gothenburg. And yeah, it’s very clever!

I didn’t hear about this bike that long ago either – thanks to some tweet by Adrianna Tan (@skinnylatte on twitter). Sounds like a Brompton bicycle would come to great use for you! Here’s a link to retailers in Italy http://www.brompton.it/home/Brompton.html
Great for taking on the train then cycling to your final destination.
Absolutely. Very convenient!
Cycling is such a great way to get around. And when the cycles fold up, that’s even better.
Yes, it really is. Like I wrote in an old post about cycling: you’ll get free exercise, fresh air, and you’ll discover more things than if you’d taken the bus or other public transportation. I love it!
that looks pretty cool
Indeed.
It’s cool indeed. I also find very ingenious and useful these Taga bikes. http://taga.nl
Perfect for parents and children.
Thanks for the link, Andrei. If I ever have kids, I’d love one of those Taga bikes!
