Me & My Strida

In 2006 my company decided to create a team video, depicting each team member in his natural habitat, busy…well, going about his/her business. Naturally, this also involved different modes of transportation through town. Insert my contribution.

Just an Amsterdam native who won't take his city and its cycling extravaganza for granted anymore, thinking these posts might be clues to others, inspiration perhaps, if you will...

In 2006 my company decided to create a team video, depicting each team member in his natural habitat, busy…well, going about his/her business. Naturally, this also involved different modes of transportation through town. Insert my contribution.

In 2005 I had bought a Strida folding bike, but it had a flat that day. Not to worry, we went over to the Amsterdam Strida office and they helped us out with a loaner. Without much further ado, the following video is my scene from that promo:

(PS: I still have that Strida, but it’s resting…with another flat)

    I remember seeing this video when it came out; it was short but spot on. It’s the speed of folding and unfolding the Strida that makes it so user friendly.

    I did a video too. Although it’s not as professional as yours, it does depict the Strida 5 in use on the shoreline of Cozumel, the Mexican island where Jacques Cousteau made scuba diving famous. You can find the video on my Strida 5 folding bike description page.

    hi Larry, thanks for you comment! Great to hear you’d already seen it. I know that video traveled to quite a few places, but I always underestimate it :). The cute part of the story is that Areaware got in contact with me through this video. Small world :).

    Your video is great, it shows what it’s all about: practicality, wherever! The Strida 5 is also so much better than series 4.

    cheers!
    Marc
