What does the bike mean in the Wayfarer logo?
We chose the penny-farthing bike as our logo because it represents the approach we take in everything that we do. The bike is organic because it harkens back to a time past, just as everything we do is grounded in the traditions of the Christian faith. The bike is dangerous because it is difficult to ride safely, just as we are willing to take risks to follow God by going before we know exactly what’s going to happen. The bike distinct because of its unique shape, just as Wayfarer has a distinct culture of community that produces unique thoughts and resources. And the bike is intriguing because it is rare today, just as we produce unusual thoughts and resources that are intriguing because they are so refreshing and also so necessary.
