riding an e-bike in Montreal is a daily routine
he rides beyond Montreal Island; in winter
he cuts through snow for groceries and the freedom of cycling
Adrian Niculcea was about eight years old when he first rode a bike
I had no trouble keeping my balance,” said Adrian
a small Romanian city surrounded by forested hills in the country's northeast
I was ready to do anything to have my own bike.”
even a Romanian-made Pegas was out of reach for most people
Adrian had to wait for communism to fall and Western products to flood the market before he could own a bike
The love affair with cycling has continued
Adrian rides an iGo electric fat bike in the streets of Montreal
one of the first things Adrian did was buy a bike
His mountain bike served as basic transportation
but also as a way to explore and connect with his new home.
like René-Lévesque on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River
they rode through provincial parks like Oka
enjoying what Adrian calls “the great nature
and my wife only biked when the weather was good
I decided to get a bike that I could use all year round,” he says
standing outside a café in Montreal’s Ville de Mont-Royal neighborhood
Unable to find a safe place to lock his e-bike
he stays at the entrance to talk about his decision to switch to an electric bike two years ago
an e-bike gives you more freedom to move around the city.”
For Adrian, freedom is more than just commuting. As a photographer, he rides at any time of the day or night. “I stop wherever I want, pull out my camera, and take a photo,” he says. Many of the images and videos he shared on social media have gone viral
capturing Montreal’s beauty through his lens
But cycling in Montreal is not always easy
Adrian chose an e-bike with fat tires for better grip on snow and ice
He also added a memory foam seat and extra suspension for comfort on long rides
Reflective tape on his helmet and bike ensures he is visible on dark winter nights
Dressing for the cold is another challenge
ski masks and windproof handlebar gloves keep you warm
you need rechargeable heated socks and gloves,” he explains.
The one problem Adrian still struggles to solve is keeping his bike safe
despite being locked inside the secure parking lot of his apartment building
"I learned that I must take care of it like a baby," he says
He now carries it up to his apartment — all 65 lbs of it — and keeps it inside
is no longer just about pleasure; it is part of his lifestyle
He especially enjoys those moments on the bike path
when he effortlessly navigates through traffic
passing long lines of cars stuck at a standstill
knowing he does not have to stop and wait like the rest
We end up using Bixi bikes in the winter in Montreal
They absorb the inevitable winter damage and get locked up at their station
Only issue is when they get stuck sometimes
Its a good answer to security and reducing wear and tear on your own bike
The acquisition will guarantee manganese ore for the next 20 years at least
has acquired the Vatra Dornei mine in northeastern Romania
The mine is a stable source of manganese ore at reasonable prices for OFZ’s core business – the production of ferroalloys
The investment will bring OZF an annual saving of about €0.5 million
Ľubo Schwarzbacher from Hubo Bach Communication informed the TASR newswire
The transaction price is almost €1 million
the Trend weekly reported earlier this year
said OFZ executive director Branislav Klocok when announcing the deal
Simultaneously this is a clear and strong signal for trade partners and the public that the producer is vital and prospective
intensively interested in all opportunities to make its business more effective and develop it further
Manganese ore has been extracted in the Suceava region in northern Romania since the end of the 18th century
Surface deposits of manganese ore in the mine are estimated at 0.5 million tonnes
Another one million tonnes of ore with 24 percent of manganese is in underground deposits
The current annual production of ore is 25,000 tonnes
of which 60 percent will be allocated for OZF
The remaining 10,000 tonnes will be for sale
This means that the surface mine may be in operation for 20 years
OFZ produces a wide range of silicon and manganese ferroalloys
cored wires and by-products from ferroalloys production in its plant in Oravský Podzámok in the Orava region
