Help Us Launch The Chococycle

September 29, 2009

Come to the Taza Chocolate Factory today, September 29th to help us launch The Chococycle on its maiden voyage. 

We're ecstatic to announce the imminent launch of our new pedal powered chocolate delivery system, the Taza Chococycle. For the last few months, our friends at Metro Pedal Power have been toiling away in secret on our new company vehicle. Only, this vehicle burns calories not fossil fuels. And you can follow its progress on Twitter.

Built on the frame of a Mercurio vendor trike we bought in Mexico, the Chococycle sports a custom paint job, plenty of insulated nooks for stashing chocolate, and a handy canopy for keeping our riders shaded and happy. Our trike stands out, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding us at the farmers markets in Harvard, Central, and Kendall. We'll also be popping up at events now and again, and slinging hot chocolate as the weather turns cooler.

We want you, our friends and fans and neighbors, to come out and help us celebrate the launch. Hop on your bike and meet us at the Taza Chocolate Factory at 11:30 AM this morning, Tuesday, September 29th. We'll launch the Chococycle, taking it from the factory, through Central Square, down Mass Ave into Harvard Square, and finally over to the Harvard Yard Farmers Market. The team from Taza and everyone else that shows up will follow the Trike on its route to the market. Helmets and safe cycling please - we'll give a free disc of Chocolate Mexicano to anyone riding with us that wears a helmet.

Can't make it to the factory in time for the launch? Meet us at our final destination, the Harvard Yard Farmers Market, on your lunch break. It's right by the Science Center. The market starts at 12:30 PM and goes to 6:00 PM.
