Co-founder

Eve is the OG member of the team back when the team was just one. She was working at a bike shop in Stoke newington, it was eating her alive each day. Working in a hostile environment in a male-dominated world was exhausting Eve’s soul. Customers would prefer a male mechanic to fix their bike which made Eve doubt her ability; colleagues would give out sexist/ homophobic comments to women & LGBTQ+ customers which makes Eve very sad. Therefore, she decided to quit her job and start Broad Bikez, providing bike services for her community.

Eve is also a jeweller💎💍, she works with repurposing found objects and turn trash into gems thru her hand🤲🏼✋🏽, go check out her jewellery @evelam.xyz

Poppy had been looking for initatives to get involved in, which combined outdoors education and building inclusive spaces. So, it was lucky she met Eve and could help grow the Broad Bikez idea into reality!

Poppy's a lover of all things outdoors and is usually bikepacking, hiking, and camping in her spare time.
She is a Cytech qualified mechanic and has worked with NGOs, social enterprises and activists in different capacities, including two years managing a national cycle training and communities programme.
