The "Hermannbike" project, powered by BERNDS

The "Hermannbike" project by the Detmold School for Architecture and Interior Design combines the use of BERNDS-Electric Foldingtandems Lowstep with an innovative marketing and financing idea for environmentally friendly , regional tourism. The occasion and eponym for the year 2009 is the 2000th anniversary of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest and the expected flood of visitors to the Hermann Monument to which the project offers an environmentally friendly alternative, with the future in mind. The idea can be varied in order to be applied to any tourist region. The special thing about it is: it creates a win-win situation for all participants.

BERNDS supports the "Global Biking Initiative"

The "Global Biking Initiative" is an association of cycling enthusiasts started by employees at Vodafone Germany which combines the fun of cycling with social commitment. The association organises a yearly charity ride; the donations collected benefit various aid organisations - this year they go to the Offroad-Kids e.V charity. In June 2009 the tour took over 200 participating riders form Milan to Düsseldorf - a trip of some 1100 km.

As one of the equipment suppliers, BERNDS provided the touring tandems for the ride.
