And we have stock. Holiday gift to yourself?

Lovely little piece. It clearly points out how well the bikes ride, because we see the TV reporter riding her own son around as a closing shot. I don't know about you, but it always seems to me like TV reporters are the klutziest goofs on the planet, so if they can ride them, anyone can! Just saw the video of the moms on Bakfiets in London.

Indeed the more bikes the better. It's not a competition. Longtails and bakfietsen, each have their strengths and weaknesses for a given situation. We love longtails, Magnus!

Jim in Chico may still have one for sale, however. Prospective dealers: ask. There are no California dealers of these bikes, Kerry. Jim in Chico may still have one for sale, however.

I promote alternative transportation in a business setting and would love to feature these bikes at an event. (I would love one myself!)

I'm still pining for a Bakfiets, though I don't really need one. That ride we went on will forever be burned in my memory: such an awesome velo! I'll be up this weekend for the NAHMBS and I'll stop by the shop: maybe you can rent me a Bak for the day?
