020 - Bina Bilenky's Philly Bike Expo...for the people!

Bina Bilenky is what you would call a real, deal bicycle industry lifer. She grew up sorting, organizing, and cleaning shop at Bilenky Cycle Works, her father's (Stephen) bicycle company. As she grew up, she worked her way through the administrative side of the company, taking orders, keeping things organized and herding Bilenky's famous shop cats, professionally. While traveling around the US promoting Bilenky Cycle Works, Bina and Stephen saw an opportunity for an east coast show, one that would be designed to be a public bicycle exhibition with a deliberately broad-reaching bent.

Thus, the Philadelphia Bike Expowas born - and since year two, the show has been in the very capable hands of show organizer, director, and current owner Bina Bilenky.
