About this Event
This will be a day out for all the family to showcase how fantastic cargo bikes are for getting around the city, whatever you might need to carry.
If you are new to cargo bikes - or you've never tried one before - this is your chance to have a go! Got your own cargo bike? We'd love you to bring it along, dress it up, enjoy the games, meet other cargo bike users and join us for a big bike ride around the park with lots of cargo bikes (ordinary bikes are also very welcome!). We'd really like to have a world record attempt - the biggest cargo bike party ever held in Scotland!
You can also meet some of the amazing organisations using cargo bikes for community projects, food sharing, deliveries, gardening, small businesses and more, as well as the brilliant bike sharing schemes and bike libraries around the city where you can borrow a cargo bike to try for yourself.
On the day we are launching a report about cargo bike use in Edinburgh and the Lothians - that shows what a great idea cargo bikes are if we want to have safer, less polluting streets, better health and stronger communities as we head towards a fossil-free future. We'll have some short speeches about that too, and you can get a copy of the report. But mainly we are about having fun in cargo bikes!
This is a free event. Open to everyone. No need to book but feel free to register your interest here, especially if you'd like to hear more about the event or the work of Edinburgh & Lothians Cargo Bike Network. Look forward to seeing you there!
