Trailhead Coffee Roasters is a company, based in Portland, Oregon, that sprouts from the love of great coffee, the outdoors and doing good for the world. It is committed to supporting the women, families and communities where the coffees are grown.

On a recent 7-day, 450-mile cycling event called Cycle Oregon, Charlie Wicker, the founder and CEO of Trailhead, took his custom-designed 110-pound Rolling Cafe’ and coffee delivery bike for the challenge. The bike has a wooden box that serves as cargo space and cafe’ mounted on a Metrofiets bike. It even has custom inlay LED lights on the trailing edge of each side.

At the event, Wicker served stovetop coffee to riders who were lucky enough to be at the right place at the right time, particularly in the mornings. Laurie Robinson, who was one of the lucky ones, said that is was the best coffee he ever tasted.
