Thanks for all the applications, we have had so many nice, funny, serious and sometimes sad applications. By tomorrow night all of you will have received a reply (most of you already have), if you have not heard from me by then - good or bad- then please send me a note at connect@opencycle.com as it means something will have gone wrong.

A completely unintended side effect of this ambassador program is that we got to talk to so many of you, often already OPEN riders, with great feedback on the bikes but also on many other topics. It has really given us a lot of ideas on things to do next, including a very cool collaboration project that we'll be rolling out next year and that will last for a few years. I am really excited about that and about many of the other ideas, so we'll have enough to do for the next 10 years.

For now, I wish you a great Holiday season and a wonderful 2023. Ride on!

Gerard (and Andy of course)
