To be held at R+E Cycles
5627 University Way NE, Seattle
Saturday, February 27th 10am - 5pm
Come join us for pizza, coffee, beer, bicycles, and a chance to converse one-on-one with some of Seattle's cycling gurus at The Seattle Bike and Pike Expo of 2016.
At R+E Cycles, we love Seattle, and the small companies that actually produce their products here. In October 2008, I asked our friends Charles and Rose Ann at Pike Brewing Company in Downtown Seattle if they would like to put on an event here in Seattle with other Seattle based entrepreneurs (and personalities) and they were just as excited about it as we were.
The flavor of Seattle Small Business is unique, and sometimes gets diluted when an event gets overwhelmed with big firms that have unlimited advertising budgets. We thought it would be great to put on a smaller event that showcased unique Seattle companies and their products, while at the same time raise money for a local charity.
Over the last six years, the Bike and Pike has been a great success! We've raised over $22,349 for Food Lifeline here in Seattle, and had lots of fun doing it.
Want to go to an event this February that's bicycle oriented and highly focused on Seattle based companies? The 2016 Seattle Bike and Pike Expo is for you! Here's some of what's lined up:

Now's your chance to own a one of a kind. Originally built in 2012 as part of a group of prototypes for Budnitz Bicycles, this model (26'6) never went into production. Some of the innovations on this frame did carry forward into the future models, and live on in Budnitz Bicycles even today. With the bike, you'll even get a print out of the original drawings used to build it.
