I do like the visual presentation of the course materials. Especially the option to download key points infographics. Some speakers need to work on the accents and delivery. I was hoping for more details looking into acquiring customers when opening a micro depot.

A useful, board ranging course. It improved my understanding of the design & use of cargo bikes, their infrastructure requirements including micro-hubs, & a few deployment challenges. Thinking of this as micro-logistics & not upscaling cycling, understanding the benefits of automation to allow design of conveyances & infrastructure to grow in harmony, & collaborative working all key learnings.

If you want to, 1. Learn how cargo bikes can tackle urban delivery challenges like congestion and emissions ️ 2. Discover how these bikes can create cleaner, healthier cities for everyone 3. Gain practical knowledge about cargo bike types, applications, and business models Whether you're a delivery pro, a city planner, or just someone who wants greener streets, this course is a good place to go.
I enjoyed learning about the capacity and types of cargo bikes and about micro hubs. However, I would delve deeper into the methods and strategies to successfully undertake cargo bikes.
