I had the #cargobike out for a shreddy around the Newlab mobility incubator and Ford's train station offices and a group of Ford employees walking outside gave an audible ohh and ahh as if they just saw actual magic or a multi-million dollar prototype coming out of the incubator for testing.
Here's an old pic at Roosevelt Park.
I missed the second where I could have gotten a better photo of this group, but this is a good illustration of the municipal horticultural and sanitation crews - most workers use bikes, trikes, or human-drawn carts.
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.

Last weekend I upgraded our #cargobike with a new fork.
Originally it was equipped with a #Suntour #Mobie, which was pretty much the only available option for a long time. Unfortunately the Mobie is a very simple construction (steel springs w/ friction dampers) and not built to last.
However, small German manufacturer #BikeTechnology (yes, that's their company name) now entered the market with a high quality upside-down cargo fork.

An #ebike that can convert from commuter to #cargobike in 30 seconds?
...I want one.

Ein DJ, zwei Pizzabäcker, zwei Radler – war das noch Critical Mass oder schon rollende Blockparty?
Mit unserer Critical Pizza haben wir 155,87 € für Westwind Hamburg e.V. gesammelt!
Westwind bringt seit 10 Jahren Menschen aufs Rad, die sonst keins hätten – für eine solidarische und bewegliche Stadt.
Danke an alle, die am Freitag mitgerollt, gegessen, gespendet und getanzt haben!

@eric: #Kunstrasen als #Cargobike-Laderaum-Boden ist auch noch witzig.
Wenn ich mit dem #Cargobike keine T-Träger in den Bergbauernhof bringen kann, sind alle Cargobikes für alle Zwecke ungeeignet.
Ein Sack Kartoffeln kann und darf damit nicht transportiert werden!
"Wie soll ich denn ohne Auto einen Zentner Kartoffeln ..." #cargobike
Entspanntes Radeln & Raven zu den schönsten Orten Hamburgs: leider geil!
So wie bei der Sternfahrt am letzten Sonntag machen wir es wieder bei der heutigen Critical Mass: 19 Uhr – Heiligengeistfeld
See you there
Bonjour, #FediFriends! This one is about giving some to modes of transports / personal needs we could focus on instead of just cars, not sure if that comes across? (At first this was only about bikes but that felt a bit boring and exclusory.)
I love it when someone builds a bicycle that's so completely *them* shaped that no one else can even ride it.

2024 was the warmest year on record. So this week, we're showing our stripes. In a world where global heating increasingly causes climate chaos, this is your regular reminder that the #cargobike is a climate solution that’s ready to roll. Not in 10 or 20 years – now. #ShowYourStripes
I've been struggling since half term with the chest infection that's doing the rounds.
But in other news, I've also bought my dream bike. I've been looking at secondhand electric cargo bikes for ages but it's so hard to find a decent one at a decent price. And new ones are crazy expensive.
This is an older model R&M Packster that's suitably scuffed but in great working order. It's transformed local journeys hauling stuff and easily swallows the big shop.
Okay, I caught a shot of one of the upright tadpole vendor trikes that are not uncommon here. The whole cart box turns when the handlebars are turned. #BikeTooter #Trike #CargoBike #Albania @fedibikes
