Hey everybody,                                             

It's been more than a month since my last update. But as they say: no news is good news.                            Today was a big day. I got to present https://opencargo.bike to Zukunft Fahrrad, thanks to Arne — a prominent figure of the cargo bike industry in Germany and Europe. Slightly terrifying, genuinely useful, and a good sign that the directory is starting to matter to people who build this stuff for a living.                    ---                                                     To start with, I'd like to share with you a blogpost about the chat I had with Susann from rad3. If I had to define what I love about this community, this probably sums it up pretty well.

We just crossed 300 products online, with more in the pipeline. The other good news: we now have products and community designs for 14 brands. I won't list them all, but it's getting serious. A lot of backend work went into making it all fit together cleanly. Proper learning by doing.

One more thing. If you've got friends, family, or colleagues who keep flirting with the idea of getting a cargo bike but won't commit, I built a very seriously unserious quiz that walks them through it. Spoiler: whatever they answer, the answer is yes.                 

Share it. We need more cargo bike people in the world.     

Cheers, and thanks for riding cargo.
