The Great Bike Roll Out

Once you love cycling and are in the industry it never leaves you. How do I know? A couple of weeks ago our founder, Michael Zane, donated 96 bicycles to his college, Franklin & Marshall. The donation was part of Sustainability Week and encourages more students to go out and experience their campus and surroundings on the bicycle.

Each of the bikes has Franklin & Marshall painted on it and, I'll bet if you look closely you'll see a lock on the bikes....don't know what kind Michael would have chosen....do you?

Congrats, Michael - that's being a true partner alumnus while helping the environment!

Surprise Guest

It was a quiet afternoon around here today. Lots of people were out at meetings and I was cranking away here at my desk. Melissa comes and and brightens my day when she says, "Michael Zane is here."

For those of you who don't know, Michael is the founder of Kryptonite. He and his family grew this company from one lock to..well, oodles of locks. Michael traveled around in a VW Van to shops and colleges around the country selling his locks and building relationships that we still have today with many of you out there.

We don't see Michael often around the office any longer, but it's always good when we do! He's family, after all. What a great surprise!
