Velosolex America

Velosolex is trying to help change the world, one rider at a time. This September a group of very dedicated Velosolex riders will be coming to the United States from Holland to ride the world famous Route 66 to raise money for schools in remote areas of Indonesia. They will start in Chicago and ride all the way through to Santa Monica on the Pacific Coast on their new Velosolex 4800’s being trailed by a Dutch TV news station crew. One lady and nineteen men will be traveling across the continental United States for this historic charitable ride.

We will soon add a special section where you will be able to follow the preparations and make suggestions for events. If you live near Route 66 and would like to arrange a welcome party when the riders pass through your town, please contact us.

In the mean time to keep track of the project and show your support you can follow them through their website: www.tjoptjoppers.nl . Watch them being interviewed on Netherlands TV in Dutch: www.tvoost.nl/Programma/?id=204&uitz=67374 (click on KIJK)

Carroll Garden, Brooklyn blogger, tells us why the VeloSolex is "infinitely Cooler!"
