DescriptionPhone (800) 777-0258 ext.: 102 BIKE FRIDAY CHANGED MY LIFE . . . Read my blog! If you'd like to talk to a “non-techie” Travel Consultant about a Bike Friday that meets your commuting, touring, or world travel needs, call me at 800-777-0258 or E-mail me. I wasn't a cyclist until in my 40's when I decided to take the plunge and bought a SatRDay recumbent. At the time I was teaching Japanese at the U of Oregon and driving a mile each way to work. Commuting by bike never occured to me. When I got a research grant to go to Japan, I took along my SatRDay and toured Hokkaido, Mt. Fuji and Tokyo. I also met and rode with many passionate Bike Friday riders in Japan. In 2003 when I became Bike Friday's 'Ambassador to Asia,' I got a Pocket Crusoe for commuting, then a Pocket Rocket Pro to keep up with the BF lunch ride and event rides. Now I commute 5 miles on my Express tikit to support Bike Friday's challenge to 'get out of the driver's seat and onto a bike.' TOUR JAPAN ON YOUR BIKE FRIDAY! -Interested in cycle touring Japan?
