This weekend on Governors Island, Julie, owner of Adeline Adeline (aka @adelineNYC), and her family ran across another bakfiet. Then @noneck ran across @naparstek and his bakfiet. If this invasion is true, we couldn’t be happier!!!
bakfiets coming to Gov Island?
Posted: July 28th, 2010 | Author: newamsterdamize | Filed under: bakfiets, dutch bike, kids on bikes, video | No Comments »…just saw this on the Governors Island Blog.
Not only will they start renting (the now bankrupt) Fietsfabriek Cargobikes, vis-a-via Rolling Orange, at Bike and Roll, BUT…
And who knows? Soon, we could be hosting the New York City’s first bakfiets race.
Shit! Now I need to save my pennies and buy the last one from Adeline Adeline. BUT the real question is, will it be a mother’s race or a no-holds-bars-copenhagenize run?

glamor moms or not, ole gorge bliss builds beautiful nyc bakfiets! in this must watch video, the Sean Patrick Farrell profiles (aka @SpokesNYT) one mother and her two daughters as they ride around town doing everything they would normally do on a train, in a cab or behind the wheel of a gas guzzler…
i can’t wait to see more bakfiets in nyc. over the last year alone, there’s been a proliferation of shops selling dutch bikes and other urban/city bikes. while the racing and hipster crowd bemoan their existence, i am ecstatic!
if you’re looking for that carry all bike, there are four locations to get bakfiets.
Adeline Adeline – TriBeCa, which features Workcycles, built in NL
HUBStation – West Village, which features modified Worksman Cycles, built in NYC
Rolling Orange – Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, which features De Fietsfabriek, built in NL
Bolognabikes – Brooklyn, hand-built frames built to your specifications.
be seeing you…
