A visit from Carl Kurz, Bikes Not Bombs Founder


One of the most satisfying aspects of being a part of Sylvan Cycles is the seemingly constant stream of interesting people who come through our door, often unannounced. Our tag-line is "Using bikes to go places" because of the bicycles ability to positively bring people together, and in doing so enhances the potential to "go places".

Organizations like "Bikes Not Bombs", epitomize this. So we were delighted when BnB's founder Carl Kurz dropped by yesterday afternoon. Over the past 25 years, BnB has become an example of how the bicycle can serve as a vehicle for positive cultural change on an international scale. Check out

Carl and his son Ziggy are heading south to spend a year travelling through the Americas -- we wish them great travels!
