Promoting The Tree has been one of funnest projects I have ever had the chance to work on. Having a contract where you get to bike in the glorious sunshine to events all over the city, talk with people, take pictures and then blog about it has been a blast. Bikes on the Drive has been one of the nicest and easiest clients I have ever worked for.

I found ilan to be a guy you like a quality cup of coffee and he really enjoys the coffee blog too. It is one of the reasons he hired me to write The Tree Blog. Over one day and a few Americanos we hatched this idea.

A biking coffee tour to some of the best coffee shops in East Vancouver. After blogging about The Tree bicycle for most of the summer and taking it to a few coffee shops I found the bike and coffee blog share the same goals: More sustainable products through education of consumers about the products they were purchasing, It is also great for cross marketing and promotion both were started and localized to East Vancouver and The Drive.

Without further ado here are the Details:
