Summary

It's been 10 years since Dutch and Vikki Van Someren first opened Bike Shed in Shoreditch in London, and what a 10 years it's been! What they've done together is create the ultimate destination for lovers of bike culture, and establish something unique in the market in this country and beyond. There's now a Bike Shed in Los Angeles and soon to be one opening up in Dubai, and I wouldn't bet against another half a dozen world wide in the next few years! Beyond the business side, Dutch is fuelled by a passion for owning and riding beautiful two wheeled machines, as he explains to Iwan and Prutts in this brilliant episode!
