Cargo bike delivery is much faster than polluting vans and trucks -- with massive benefits

"Cargo bike delivery can ship goods in cities faster than vans, removing tonnes of greenhouse gas and easing congestion at the same time, according to a new study by climate charity Possible and the University of Westminster’s Active Travel Academy."

“ #Paris has shown that it is possible to redistribute public space quickly and effectively, preserving the city’s historic charm while creating streets that prioritize people over cars. The result is a city where parents ferry children to school by #cargobike, commuters glide past the Seine on protected #bikelanes, and #cycling is no longer a daring choice—it is a practical, everyday reality … change did not happen by accident. It was driven by political will” https://momentummag.com/what-the-world-can-learn-from-pariss-cycling-revolution/

14 bici cargo a meno di 3k€, altro che Leapmotor T03

Qualche giorno fa @benzinazero aveva pubblicato la foto di questa pubblicità ingannevole, e il post linkato spiegava le varie ragioni per cui è stupida.

Ho trovato questo video "14 alternative all'auto a meno di 3000€", in tedesco, ma con traduzione e tutti i link nella descrizione.
14 bici particolari, molte un po' matte, tutte fantastiche, che fanno anche più della Leapmotor, ad un prezzo molto inferiore, specialmente considerando i costi di esercizio.

@emilianosandri @cpm @pluralistic remember #bosch wrote the code for #VW to cheat on emissions #dieselgate

Most e-bikes on the market today are built with unique and proprietary parts. They are drifting farther towards unrepairable future waste. There needs to be affordable easy conversion options, there is no shortage of suitable bikes laying around. Bikes with near infinite parts operability. Bikes are the mechanical #fediverse

Cory @pluralistic Doctorow gives us #cargobike #ebike folks a nice rundown on all the fun bosch has in store for us.

worth keeping in mind as all these 'official' e-assist systems also neatly pair with your phone, all sorts of hilarity & hijinks may ensue!

& fwiw, bosch ain't the only outfit going long on enshittification.

it's never if, merely when.

Funderat på lastcykel?
9 personer som aldrig provat testar två olika typer – med lasten fram eller lasten bak. Fint att se totala nybörjare vingla fram och ge ärliga åsikter.

Just come across the phrase " #Bicycles offer you the freedom that car ads promise". coined by Tom Flood https://www.linkedin.com/posts/tom-flood-7a91b411_bicycles-deliver-the-freedom-that-auto-ads-activity-7115679791810314241-iGGB?trk=public_profile_like_view

Appears to be a two year old phrase but I think if for #2026 you're wanting to use the car less, it's a good mantra memorize. I've had a puncture on the main #cargobike for over a week now I've been lazy about fixing so the car has been used more. I need to remember the freedom the bike gives a #smallbusiness like us.

Video bike tax: Video is from a couple of years ago on one of our cargobike, sadly now gone due to a recall
