Are You Or Do You Know A Woman In Need, Who Needs A Bicycle

Written by Boston Biker on Mar 28

Got this in the email, this is just lovely 🙂 Someone out there is very nice. I can only hope this sort of thing becomes a trend.

—————-

Thanks to an anonymous donor, a brand new European city bike is being given away via Lovely Bicycle. This Italian city bike is a design collaboration between Bella Ciao and Lovely Bicycle. A special edition of 12 will be available this May at Harris Cyclery in West Newton, MA – one of which will be donated as part of the give-away. See here for details.
