The Bike Works presents a Magical Mistery Tour !

The Wheels are turning
(see bellow for upcoming events!!)

The idea behind the Magical Mystery Bike Tour is to open the doors to the Magical World of cycling. Those participating in this trip will not only have the chance to see the world in a completely new light, but they will never want to leave their bikes again. From then on, instead of reaching for the keys to their car, they will be taking their two wheels to discover the mysteries hidden in the bike world as they peddle to their desired destination.

One of the most magical aspect of cycling is that you move slower than when you are in a car and you have the freedom to stop whenever, wherever you wish in order to appreciate things that catch your attention. If you hear music that you enjoy, you can stop and watch the musician stroll past you blowing through his/her saxophone.

The Magical Mystery Tour is on it's way with many surprises and magical interventions ahead. The group that met up last Thursday began thinking of performers, dancers, and buskers that we might know. We want to use the freedom cycling offers in order to allow the space and the time for something magical to take place. The action for the week is to get in touch with all these creative people and ask them to contribute some of their magic for those touring on bikes. UPCOMING EVENTS
