We lent a prototype out a couple months ago to one of our pre-order customers (before the first shipment of bike seats had arrived) and received these pictures of their first ride on the bike seat. Can't wait to see many more photos of you with your Companion Bike Seat as soon as you receive it!
A great, short promo video showing off Companion Bike Seats, courtesy of Kitchen Productions. Suki is a long-time friend and has been a great supporter of Companion Bike Seats. This was shot on a bike path in North Hollywood with a series of great murals and paintings alongside. This is the first ride on the first bike seat from our first production run, couldn't have found a better back-drop. Thanks Suki! Taken at Burning Man this year (thanks Star and Troy). This particular bike seat later provided transportation for a man who had just fallen out of the sky (not shown).
The trip to Coachella was a blast, and Alice proved to be a worthy addition to the crew. The bike seat held up like a champ through the desert heat during the days, waiting patiently to bring way-ward concert-goers back home after the show. We didn't have a single issue at all and it was a great way to get more people to and from the show with less bikes.
Depending on the driver's style of riding, it does take a little practice and coordination between the rider and the driver to ride completely smoothly, though this didn't take more than 5 minutes or so, dramatically easier than learning to ride a bike, which we've all done already, right? All in all, Companion Bike Seat's first road-trip proved successful, exceeding all expectations. Really excited about having a whole more within the next couple months!
Bicyclists world-wide, rejoice! We need not leave our leftovers behind at restaurants any longer! We can bring our leftovers AND our date home now! A truly momentous occasion. For those of you unfamiliar with Carrotmob, it's a really cool organization that focuses on promoting social good and green business practices. They encourage businesses to run campaigns where a portion of the proceeds go towards something "good" and then Carrotmob helps drive the mobs of people to the business. Today's bicycle Carrotmob at MIssion Cheese was working to raise money to install and maintain public bike parking at their store location in SF. You can learn more and join the mob at www.carrotmob.org.
