Bike n’ Blend
We create innovative and sustainable events
Bike n’ Blend is a pop up events company promoting cycling, sustainability, health and happiness using our Australian made blender bikes.
We are a team of passionate event organisers who believe in ethical and sustainable practices to create a happier and healthier world – one smoothie event at a time! We use washable or biodegradable cups, offset our carbon, compost or recycle all waste produced and donate to UNICEF.
Bike n’ Blend is perfect for engaging and inspiring your audience through entertaining catering, brand exposure or promoting sustainability and health at events.
The business was started by Leena van Raay in March 2011 at small farmers’ markets with the help of her partner Gil Rind. She now has a team of dedicated staff running events in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
