In 22/23, our bikes went out on loan for a total of 992 days across 109 different loans. This includes personal loans; both day and long-term loans, business loans, and community group loans such as to Edinburgh Tool Library and SCOREscotland. We trained 65 people in Cycle Scotland Cargo Bike Orientation. We attended 19 events across Edinburgh. We engaged with 7,700 people at these events giving practical demonstrations, advice and information. This year our bikes have been ridden 8,887 miles. We launched our myTurn page - with 31 members, which has helped facilitate 15 cargobikes loans. Our volunteers have collected 46.1 tonnes of surplus food from supermarkets. Saving 28.9 tonnes CO2e compared to the food going to landfill, and 410 kg CO2e compared to the food going for anaerobic digestion.
“We were able to act quickly when we needed to make short deliveries that would have been done with the van and we're now planning in our deliveries and other logistics for next year to reduce carbon emissions even further “ “Every time I see what these amazing bikes are capable of, it reassures me that I feel I would manage to do many things I would otherwise do by car by cargo bike... I feel a lot of joy being able to get from A to B to C riding these bikes, so most of the experience is memorable in a good way! I like being able to assert myself on the road and be one more example for folk that cars are far from the only option we have for these kinds of journeys.” “I knew already that cars should be used as little as possible. However, it was a nice confirmation that it is easier and so much funner to move stuff with a cargo bike than with a car, as I would have done it in the past before discovering cargo bikes.” “The amount of conversation people started over the bike! Everyone was very positive about it.” “I immensely enjoyed accessing green spaces and sharing/ introducing my children to longer distance cycling. Going down some of the cycle paths in the meadows during a pleasant summer afternoon was particularly memorable." “The feeling of joy as it cruised along and bystanders would give admiring looks!”
