Word on the Streets

WTF Skill Share Recap and WTF Bike Day!

On Saturday morning of April 23rd, WTF’s in the Bike Industry gathered at the Red Stag in Northeast to brunch, share experiences, meet new WTF’s and make connections.

We started things off with fancy national geographic business card creation and swapping while eating some delicious brunch. Anne, Anneka and Beth introduced Grease Rag, the Minneapolis Bicycle Coalition, safer spaces and why we were meeting.
