Εκδηλώσεις

Την Τρίτη 12-5-09 θα επισκεφθει τους "Φίλους του Ποδηλάτου" ο Stephen Allen ο οποίος αν και επιληπτικός κάνει τον γύρο του κόσμου με το ποδηλατο του εδω και 7 μήνες. Ανήκει σε μια οργάνωση www.seizetheworld.com που προωθεί την έρευνα για την επιληψία και υποστηρίζει οτι τα άτομα με ένα τέτοιο πρόβλημα μπορούν να έχουν μια δραστηρια ζωή.
Θα δείξει φωτογραφίες απο το ταξίδι του και θα ήθελε να γνωριστούμε.

Hello Friends of The Bicycle!

I apologize for not being able to write to you in Greek. I found your website when I was searching for bike shops in Athens on the internet. I am currently riding through the city on a bicycle tour around the world to raise money for epilepsy research. www.seizetheworld.com. If you are interested in seeing photos and video of the tour, please visit the site!

Also, I will be in the city for about three weeks, and if there might be any interest, I would be thrilled to give a presentation of some of the photos that I have taken during my journey. This could be pretty casual, or organized however you like! Things have often worked well gathering people together for dinner, or a drink, sharing pictures, and having a great time discussing bikes, travel, etc. It is often a great reason to bring people together.

Seize The World is a non profit foundation in the United States that is based on the goal of promoting the idea that people with epilepsy can lead active lifestyles. I have epilepsy myself and have managed to be touring on the road for the past seven months. It has been fabulous. If there might be interest in making a connection, please let me know! I will be around. Also, if you have recommendations for a good shop in Athens that might be helpful for making a couple of repairs, that could be great! Thanks for your help. Take care.
Stephen Allen
