Technology & Community: Our Electric Bikes are Connecting People💡🚲 In an increasingly digitally connected world, we often overlook the importance of human connections and local communities. Electric bikes are not only #revolutionizing #mobility but also strengthening community bonds #worldwide. Have you ever considered it?🧐 At Crow, we've witnessed how our #eBikes are not only changing how we move but also how they're bringing #people together. From local #cycling groups gathering to explore new routes together, with people of all ages and #fitness levels, to community events promoting #sustainable mobility, we've seen firsthand how electric bikes, being more "democratic," are fostering a sense of #community and belonging that was missing. And, who hasn't been stopped while #riding an eBike, whether in the #city or on a #nature ride, with someone asking about your electric bike? These are moments of human connection in a world that often feels so disconnected. #Technology plays a crucial role in this connection. Digital platforms and mobile apps are facilitating interaction among eBike users, allowing them to share favorite routes, organize group rides, and even find new friends with similar interests in sustainable mobility. This aspect is one of the driving forces behind our #brand, CROW BICYCLES. It's not just about selling #electric bikes; it's about building stronger, more connected, and more sustainable #communities. And with every #bike we sell, we're one step closer to achieving that goal. If you #ride an eBike, if you ride a Crow #eBike, remember that you're not only changing how you move but also how you connect with the world around you. Together, we're building a more sustainable and united #future, on two wheels 🌍🚲💚.

CIE members, Fluctuo, a data specialist company focused on shared-mobility services (bikes, scooters, mopeds, cars) recently published its annual review. Notably, the report highlights a remarkable 54% increase in the usage of dockless bikes across Europe in 2023! 🚴♀️ 📈 Fluctuo's CEO, Julien Chamussy, attributes this growth to cities' preference for shared bicycle schemes, emphasizing their ease of adoption. This preference is due to cities already being used to bicycles and having infrastructure designed for them, such as designated parking zones and bike lanes.

So thrilled to announce you the first steps of a meaningful journey! 🌈 For the past 4 months, I've been dedicated to Loopz.Bike, a project with thoughtful impact, aiming to redefine how people consume physical goods. What is Loopz all about? 🔁 Parents, say goodbye to buying bikes! With Loopz.Bike, simply rent your bike from a local bike store during the desired period. Whenever your child outgrows the bike, simply return it, and exchange it for the next bigger size. Repairs and maintenance are covered in the subscription, promoting sustainable bike usage. With Loopz.Bike, bike stores retain the ownership of their bikes, and parents don’t need to worry about all the hassles of owning children's bikes. This new ownership model disrupts the linear economy, boosting bike efficiency and extending their lifespan. 🔁🌍 Join the adventure by following Loopz.Bike! Exciting updates coming very soon. 🚀🔗 #LoopzBike #SustainableMobility #BikeRevolution #CircularEconomy

🌍💡 Eco-Insight of the Day: Bike vs. Car – What's Your Carbon Footprint? 💡🌍 Ever wonder about the real environmental impact of biking to work versus driving? 🚴♂️🚗 At LockPod, we're passionate about not just securing your bike, but also about empowering you to make eco-friendly choices. Today, we're diving deep into the differences between car and bike commuting that were analyzed by Harvard scholars, and the findings might just surprise you! 📊 Car vs. Bike: The Carbon Showdown Driving a Car: Even the most fuel-efficient vehicles have a significant carbon footprint, emitting CO2 with every mile. From production to the pump, to the pavement, cars are a major contributor to urban air pollution and greenhouse gases. Biking: Often hailed as the zero-emission hero, biking's carbon footprint isn't quite zero—but it's close! Even when considering the production of the bike and the "fuel" (aka your food), biking emits drastically less CO2 compared to cars. And yes, your diet matters here too! 🚴♀️ Did You Know? A vegan biker might emit less than a third of the CO2 per mile compared to a Prius driver. A meat-eating cyclist's emissions aren't negligible, but they still far outshine any gas-powered commute. 🚗 But Wait, There's More! The story doesn't end with emissions. Consider traffic congestion, parking woes, and maintenance costs. Bikes offer a lean, green commuting machine alternative that keeps both the planet and your wallet happier. 🌱 Why It Matters Every choice we make affects our planet. By choosing to bike, not only are you slashing your carbon emissions, you're also contributing to a healthier, more sustainable urban environment. 🌟 Let's Make a Difference Ready to switch gears to a greener commute? LockPod is here to make the transition easier with secure, accessible bike storage solutions. Let's pedal forward to a more sustainable future, one ride at a time. 👉 To learn more read the Harvard article: https://lnkd.in/g7fT-WhQ #SustainableCommute #BikeVsCar #EcoFriendlyChoices #LockPod

To find out which term means what and what this has to do with #ridepooling and #ondemand mobility, read the entire blogpost here 👉 https://fcld.ly/aj86nak

Twelve months ago we caught up with Adam Townsend and Lyndal Bailey, two of the three founders of new tech business venture. Bike Matrix Ltd sounded pretty darn cool, not to mention inspiring (you can still find the story on RotoruaNZ.com). Recently Adam, Lyndal and third founder Adam Barnes got in touch with us again with exciting news: they’ve received a $2M investment via silent contribution from within the bicycle industry, which they say, “brings invaluable market validation, experience, and expertise from a seasoned industry insider.” The team’s success at Eurobike 2024, the world’s largest bicycle industry trade event, including winning a Eurobike Award, highlights the strong industry support for Bike Matrix’s compatibility solution. These results not only validate the groundbreaking nature of Bike Matrix’s technology but also brings international attention to Rotorua’s tech scene. Read more on Mai Rotorua about how Lyndal and the two Adams plan to revolutionise the bike industry globally. #RotoruaNZ #RotoruaProud #MaiRotorua #OurPeople #Community #TellingOurStories #LocalHeroes #RotoruaEntrepreneurs #RotoruaBusiness #TechStartUp

This is a step in the right direction for #Shared #Micromobility.

Most people view the competition as a battle to be won at all costs. But my experience in the bike share industry, particularly from 2012 to 2019, was very much the opposite. There was a time when the term “bike share” was unfamiliar to most. Now, mention "bike share," and everyone knows what it is. This transformation was the result of an entire industry working together to innovate and grow. Pitching to cities often meant being in the same rooms with competitors, all vying for the same contract. Through these travels and meetings around the world, I befriended many of our competitors. Some folks that immediately come to mind include Lee Jones from Bcycle, Lauren Isaac from her time at Motivate, Sebastian Schlebusch from his time at NextBike, and Kyle Rowe from his time at Spin (see comments for the full list!). Together, we tackled a shared problem from slightly different angles, benefiting cities, communities, and the environment in the process. Competition, in this light, wasn't a hindrance, but a catalyst for collective progress. The bike share boom brought a wave of competitors, each pushing the industry forward, solidifying the category, and amplifying our impact. This competition spurred innovation, forced us to rethink our business models, and approach problems creatively. This is a testament to how competition can be a force for good, fostering better outcomes for everyone involved. It made me a better operator and, more importantly, showed me the value of viewing competitors as collaborators in a shared mission. I'm curious to hear from others. Is this sense of camaraderie in the face of competition unique to the bike share industry, or have you experienced something similar in your field? Are you friends with your competitors, or is that just me? :)
