A new touring company is in town and it91裸聊视频檚 good for the environment.

The Smile Cycle 91裸聊视频� Pedal Tour Company opened in January, and owner Stuart Lang took a big leap when he heard a calling to come back to the Okanagan.

The company features a 15-passenger bike, where patrons face each other across a table as they pedal around Kelowna. It was originally designed in the Netherlands, and carries an eco-friendly solar panel that charges the battery.

91裸聊视频淲hen you see it and engineering behind it, it91裸聊视频檚 quite impressive,91裸聊视频� said Lang, adding he saw the first bicycle operating in Germany.

91裸聊视频淭he idea came from back when I was a lot younger, I was an exchange student and I went to Germany, and in Berlin there were folks peddling down the main street and I thought 91裸聊视频榳ow, these folks are having a blast, they91裸聊视频檙e all facing each other, it91裸聊视频檚 not like anything I had seen before.91裸聊视频�91裸聊视频�

After seeing Germany91裸聊视频檚 successful bike adventures and his friend in Portland ride a similar bike, he decided to take his idea to the Okanagan.

91裸聊视频淲e have a great history to this city with Canada91裸聊视频檚 150 happening here and for someone who91裸聊视频檚 been proud to come from and live in Kelowna I didn91裸聊视频檛 want it to just be about beer,91裸聊视频� said Lang, as the original bikes he saw in Germany featured beer drinking as part of the experience.

In October, the 28-year-old attended a Rock My Business Plan workshop for people ages 18 to 39 which was created from funding from the province and it jumpstarted his idea.

91裸聊视频淚t provided me with that framework and organization to take this dream and take all the quantitative and qualitative measures and put it into reality. It demystified the whole process,91裸聊视频� he said.

The 28-year-old moved away from Kelowna for nine years, completing a master91裸聊视频檚 degree at Dalhousie University.

But his interest lies with the tourism industry. Lang moved back to Kelowna last June from Halifax. His fianc茅 is still currently living there, finishing her schooling.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 really been a gut check to put yourself out there,91裸聊视频� he said. 91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 about showing this place that we love.91裸聊视频�
