Stan Engelbrecht is a Cape Town (South Africa) based photographer and publisher who has published numerous books, including 'Miss Beautiful' and the best-selling 'African Salad' ( www.dayonepublications.com ). He harbors a deep love for bicycles and has a keen interest in contemporary South African culture.
Nic Grobler's interest in bicycles and cycle culture has steadily built up over the last 7 years through much international travel accompanied by bicycle. Spending so much time away from home and immersed in different cultures has converged his interests and attention to things that universally help increase happiness, like chocolate and bicycles. Finding that the empowering use of bicycles, as seen in various other countries, has not been adopted enough in South Africa, he is keen on playing a part in the changing of bicycle culture closer to his home. Design and animation is what keeps him busy otherwise. He currently lives in Cape Town (South Africa).
