The Handmade Bicycle Show is back: Val and Faith are joined in the studio by Michael Hands of Corporate Cycling and Ben Schultz of Bastion Cycles, to talk about the renaissence of the Handmade Bicycle Show in 2018. We share our bike moments, which range from cargo bike discoveries to the satisfaction of riding with customers on the bikes you built for them, before briefly touching on local news. Talk turns to the Handmade Bicycle Show 2018 coming up in April at the Meat Market in North Melbourne after a hiatus of a few years. With twenty-three exhibitors from around Australia and the world, the show aims to give locals access to the world of custom bicycle makers and their products. Ben tells us about Bastion Cycles, their three year anniversary today, their experience exhibiting overseas and how the show works for them as builders.

We finish up with a quick mention of the International Women’s Day Alleycat coming up on March 8th.
