Bodo Hauswald updated the clubs president in written form and asked her to report to the club the latest news on the Bicycle project as follows:
According to Bodo another bulk of bicycles arrived last week in Bratislava. Currently they are stored in Bodos storage.
You will recall that this project was initiated by our former club member Urmas Kaarlep. Urmas had a close contact to people in the Netherlands who were collecting used bicycles in adventure parks, in the Netherlands, which were going to be replaced by new ones. Thanks to Urmas the bicycles are coming already the fourth time to Slovakia.
Thanks to Peter Kluckas connections we overall offered 160 bicycles so far to the organization ´´Cyklokoalicia´´.
According to Bodo, the “end” sales price of each bicycle is approximately EUR 350, exclusive transport costs.
Several club members raised arguments that the project is not well enough known in Bratislava / Slovakia, that it suffers visibility and most importantly the context Rotary which is the major donator of this project. We will therefore take this project into the agenda of the next board meeting to decide whether and if yes, how we wish to proceed further with this project.
