Benjamin
Can you live several lives in one? A blend of Flanders and Brussels, Benja, Benjaflor, DJ Mukambo, aka Benjamin Tollet, is both a cycling coach, music journalist, activist, percussionist, radio programmer, DJ, photographer, cultural guide, climbing instructor, and kayaker in his spare time. From the heart of his urban forest in the northern quarter, he is our calm shaman. Proudly donning his adornments, he opens the doors to an in-between world, free from car dominance, where children ride their bikes in a cosmopolitan and joyful city!

Delphine
Delphine Metten has about 187 strings to her bow (which she carries in the most peaceful way possible, of course). Our bike instructor and coach, endowed with boundless kindness, is undoubtedly the team member who racks up the most kilometers per week on her bike, from north to south. Whether it's windy, rainy, or snowy, she rides her brand-new Eddy Merckx, a feminist podcast in her ears, and you can be sure that pedaling will put her in a good mood. She recently discovered that she could fix a flat tire, change brake pads, or maintain a wheel hub, and she's been a different person ever since.

Edoardo
Edoardo Luppari, aka Mister MolemB, pioneer and founder, came from far-off Italy with only one idea in mind: bikes! Sometimes he's in the kitchen (coordination, partnerships, finances, team management—that's him), sometimes in the mill (smoothies and the barak à fiets, also him). Legend has it that in 2016, he had an old Koga Miyata implanted in his brain. Since then, he's bike-shaken the calm Maritime quarter, founded a mechanics workshop, and an association. While some call him a "bicycle philosopher," in reality, his militant and visionary speeches are often less digestible than a plate of spaghetti alla carbonara.

RIET
Riet Naessens is the hyperactive president of Molembike. Since 2018, Dona Rita has invested boundless energy into sharing her passion for cycling and promoting the "little queen" (the bicycle) among women from the Maritime quarter and beyond. With enthusiasm and a sense of purpose, she leads people around all corners of Brussels and knows the city like the back of her hand!

Romain
Pédaloneur errant pendant un temps, Romain Lardinois est maintenant bien installé dans sa nouvelle vie de mécanicien vélo. Il a tout de même gardé précieusement ses sacoches et les utilise couramment sur son trajet Ottignies - Bruxelles. Grand amateur de nature, il aura toujours en tête une petite anecdote sur le vivant qui nous entoure. Coté mécanique, on raconte qu’il peu changer une chambre à air, tout en expliquant comment fonctionne un roulement le tout les yeux fermés et en moins de 45 secondes. Souvent vous n’aurez rien compris à la première explication mais surtout PAS DE PANIQUE il reprendra calmement. La technique est 100 % garantie !
