HISTORY

Let me tell you about how I got the idea for MyKnoaky.....

I have been a Pro-Street-Bikerider now for more than 15years. Day by day training on open Roads in between the traffic. On april 2011 i was very close to have a horrible accident but luckily nothing happened. I knocked on the side of my frame as I do sometimes on the side of my helmet. I told the whole story to my wife and also told her how nice it would be to have a piece of wood with me when I am out for a ride. A small piece of wood that I could stick wherever I want,  a small piece, that I could knock on, whenever I feel I need to.

That was the birth of MyKnoaky. A small piece of OAK-Wood, that I designed, small and simple, that you can stick or put it wherever you want to. Actually, I wore mine in the beginning around my neck as a sort of a pendant. There are no secrets no promises behind it.

Before I started to produce it for all of you, I looked for a long time for the right Foundation that I could support with MyKnoaky. One which would help people worldwide, if we give it enough support.

Plant-for-the-Planet is the name of the foundation that I chose. It's an wonderful project, from a kid with an incredible goal. He wants  to plant 1000 Billion Trees for the World. There has been already 12,5 Billion trees planted and with every MyKnoaky you buy he plants one more tree.

One MyKnoaky = one Tree, that is what you support!

Today, on my personal MyKnoaky, I have a drawing of my kids. I just like the idea that I have something personal with me when I am on the road or traveling around the world. If you turn it around, you will see that we have left a space for you to personalize it, then you have your own personal MyKnoaky, just like me.

Now you know the story why I decided to start with MyKnoaky, the only thing you have to decide is, if you want to have YOUR own MyKnoaky!
