The Bridgestone Cycle Showroom, Bike Forum Aoyama
Hosts the Special [Cycling Parents and Children] Exhibition
 
Bridgestone Cycle Co., Ltd. (President: Yuji Takeuchi) will host the special [Cycling Parents and Children] exhibition for mothers and their children at the Bike Forum Aoyama (Jingu-mae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo) between April 16 and June 30. An exhibition of pictures of bicycles painted by children under the title of [Our Bicycles] will be held between April 16 and May 16.

Transporting children around on a bicycle for the first time is an anxious period for mothers, and they are left in a quandary as to which one to chose to guarantee their child's safety. And, of course, it goes without saying that they want to purchase the safest model for their child when he or she is old enough to ride alone. This exibition has been designed for mothers and children to suggest Bridgestone's latest models as suitable models for first-time riders.

In more detail, a panel will be set up to help mothers and children chose the most suitable bicycles, and the event will include a special exhibition on the Angelino, which provides support for mothers raising small children, the Levena, a lightweight children's sports bike weighing just 7.9kg, the high-class SmartKids children's bicycle, the fashionable HACCHI children's bicycle, the CROSSFIRE Junior & Kids bike, which is the ultimate MTB for younger riders, and the LeVeena girls' bicycle, which sports fancy decorations, in addition to a regular exhibition on the ANCHOR racing-specifications bicycle, the Ordina casual sports bike, the HELMZ urban speed cruiser, and the fashionable about-town RelaxyBike.
