please as important as to have a car
like I don't have a tire because I have
this if you have children so you put
your children here or the channel of my
daughter I put it there or the groceries
it's a city with 40 percent of the
population who own cars only 40 percent
so it's it's the way to get around
that's why we have so many cargo bikes
this is our SUV and you know I have two
kids I use my cargo bike to get them
around it's practical I have two
families with two kits incoming 25% of
these families have or have been owning
a cargo bike so it's it's a lot of
people it's it's serious in Copenhagen
it's it's not just for fun awful for the
nerdy people
this is transportation that's amazing
yeah but in the back as well especially
weight way back here oh my goodness well
good luck
[Applause]
hello welcome to Copenhagen this is my
cargo bike I used to drive my girlfriend
around she's crazy about it it's
absolutely wonderful
I use it to taxi around people in
Copenhagen at night it's extremely
comfortable I feel very safe
lots of legroom and it's also very
comfortable because he's got this great
cushion he said it's an old mattress but
it feels very luxurious to me all right
we're producing this the cargo back the
bullet we started two and a half years
ago selling the bikes and so far I guess
we've been selling yeah
500 bikes this white bike is my wife's
bike and she's really looking good
riding this bike and that's a major part
of riding the bike
that is impressive I sold my car in
Mexico I'm for the same money I got this
bike and it has changed the way I move I
use it every day there's kids out in the
summer here today you know they'll
they'll buy a whole bunch of cheap
bottles of water and fill up at their
mum's cargo bike with ice and stand out
there selling it for 10 kronor we have
the cocktail bike you can send a text
message to this guy and he'll come out
with with mojitos and their strawberry
daiquiris in thermoses for you we
there's a newspaper bike selling
tourists you know for a newspaper the
crepes bike where people don't make
their pancakes for you whatever you want
everything and it's just exploded this
is one of the things like things that I
love about Copenhagen is that we were
thinking new about bikes what else how
else can we implement bikes into the
city Wow I was a carpenter before I
started produced bikes for 15 years I
only used cargo bikes for transportation
logistically it was perfect I was the
first guy out there I was the first guy
home and I was the guy with the longest
vacation for the summer time because
they didn't have to pay for the van it's
faster it gives you a lot of
independence and I also think it's
because you also do exercise so at the
same time instead of going to a fitness
you ride your bike and you stay in shape
[Music]
[Applause]
I'm so proud of Copenhagen and things
going on like today's cargo by relay
race
what was it like I think it was
extremely fun but I've been tough you
know I actually had that taste of blood
in my mouth
I always had this vision about I sold a
car go back to sue and I just had this
vision about all this elephant
that they have to carry in the goggle
bike
[Laughter]
