I love this so much.

The fact that this option exists with benefit after benefit, and there's still resistance to adopting it elsewhere, just makes me sad (and angry).

Genuinely think We'd get more buy in for skateboards and harpoons.

This is great to see. I'm very happy the University is using modern city infrastructure options.

Being in Berlin, I see tons of personal cargo bikes, the postal service uses cargo bikes, and there's many pedal-driven cargo trucks (including DHL and UPS ones). When you've got good bike infrastructure, you get a lot done one two or three wheels without much hassle.

Wow, that's great! Heck, it's petty amazing considering how car addicted Australia is. I was touring Australia last year and it felt like I was rolling around Los Angeles at times.

Melbourne's street cars are cool though. 😎
