〳 ͡° Ĺ̯ ͡° 〵Nº244 Are you a broet and didn't even know it? 📜 🖋
By Jon Woodroof • Issue #244 • View online
Hi! I hope you’ve had a good week!
It’s been another action-packed one at Twotone HQ here in Amsterdam. We had Malo, our next intern, ride all the wayfrom Düsseldorf to the office for a first visit, we onboarded Hyperice as a client for Benelux PR with their distribution partner Response based in Norway, our friend Fran from Dreamer Cycling (the site just launched, so check it out!) stopped by and the Twotone team finally began to get serious about Eurobike planning as it’s just over a month away!
Next to planning our first adventure to Frankfurt for the industrious’s biggest tradeshow, various colleagues are also preparing trips to far-flung corners of France for fun, Estonia for factory visits & Greece for off-road photoshoots!
And, if you’re nearby, swing by tomorrow evening (Friday, June 10) by our office at Tussen de Bogen 6 for our monthly bbq & going away party for Félicie as she wraps up her 2-month internship to head back to France.
About the subject line, I almost dove into Zulie Rane’s article about how the “Broetry” on LinkedIn is making her sick her in the intro but I think you should just click through for the giggles. What even is that professional prose on there anyway? lol!
as always, thank you for reading & sharing this newsletter!
have a good weekend,
Jon

Ampler's new Zürich Showroom opened!
Ampler's new Zürich Showroom opened!
Last month we teased open the doors of our brand new showroom in Zurich, Switzerland. Well, after a few weeks of kicking the tires we decided it was about time to celebrate this milestone in true Ampler style! The weather treated us well and there was a great vibe amongst the 200 people in attendance.

Two centuries on, bicycles are the world’s vehicle of choice [...]

Bicycles Have Evolved. Have We?
Bicycles Have Evolved. Have We?
From the velocipede to the ten-speed, biking innovations brought riders freedom. But in a world built for cars, life behind handlebars is both charmed and dangerous.
…you know I’d say it but here in Amsterdam, we certainly have evolved!

SAFI WORKS
“Safi Sana” means “very good” in Swahili. When I was 20, I travelled around Tanzania with my old school mtb; Safi was the only word I knew and I was repeating it again and again to show appreciation and closeness to the humans that were offering me all they had: “Safi Safi Safi Sana Safi Sana” “good good good very good very good”. Since then, I knew that, whatever I would do in life as a personal project, would be called like that. A word full of joy, energy and humanity, that’s Safi.
And two Safi Works links too! ; )
Great stuff, Jaime! Good luck in Switzerland!
