Cycling Industries Europe

🚲 Last weekend at the International Cargo Bike Festival our Project Manager Samuel Pierce talked about the results of the European Cargo Bike Operators 2024 Survey. 📝 Carried out since 2020, this year's survey gathered data from 33 cycle logistics operators. It aims to track and build a database on the evolution and development of cycle logistics operations in Europe and we thank all the organisations who completed this survey. 🤝 For more information or if you want to become a member of CIE and be part of growing cycle logistics via CIE's Cargo Bike and Cycle Logistics Expert Group, reach out to Samuel Pierce.

The BITS (and now MegaBITS_EU) project has been an immense opportunity for CIE and its Members to reap the benefits that these projects have to offer. 🚲 This award is the culmination of over two decades of effort to make the car-centric Intelligent Transport Systems domain relevant to cycling. ➡️ Read now about the long road to this success: https://lnkd.in/dU8sW-MN #CIE #CyclingIndustriesEurope #BITS #InterregNorthSea #MegaBITS #SmartMobility #EURegionsWeek #Interreg #Cycling

🚲 For our Member of the Month, we caught up with Lorenzo Buratti, founder and CEO of Clorofilla - Bike repair & charge, designer and manufacturer of bike repair stations, and owner of Buratti Meccanica S.r.l., producer of mechanical components. 🔧 "I started Clorofilla five years ago, inspired by my lifelong passion for cycling. While riding and racing around the world, I recognized the potential for bike repair stations. I wanted to create repair stations with high quality and exceptional Italian design, and that was how Clorofilla began. Our bike repair stations are columns equipped with pumps and tools for quick repairs, designed for cyclists along bicycle paths. Whether it’s for adjusting a handlebar or tightening screws on a seat, they offer a great advantage to cyclists." 👉 Read more about Lorenzo Buratti's cycling inspirations, industry trends and challenges, and how we, as CIE, can help overcome them here : https://lnkd.in/eYuWJcN #CyclingIndustriesEurope #Clorofilla #BurattiMeccanica #LorenzoBuratti #MemberoftheMonth
