Howdy Folks!

It's been a little while, so I thought I'd update you on a few things!

First of all is something very important called Connect2. Connect2 is a UK-wide project that will transform local travel in 79 cities, towns and villages by creating new walking and cycling routes for the journeys we all make every day. Crossings and bridges will be created over busy roads, railway lines and rivers, linking into new networks of local paths to get you to where you want to go.

If Connect2 wins, millions of you will be able to travel in a healthy and environmentally-friendly way to the shops, school, work, and the park or to see family and friends. Connect2 in Hereford will see the devlopment of some new paths and an alternative route to Rotherwas. It'll make travle by bike and foot, safer and make it easier for us to all travel about under out own steam. That way we can all do our bit for the environment!

A few weeks ago Luke and I took part ina promotional day around Hereford, which saw a banner travel (a bit like the Olympic flame) from one side of the town to the other. Our Cargo bikes and Pedicabs were involved.

The banner accompanied me to various morning stops before I handed it over to be taken up to Belmont PCT.

On its way back from Belmont with a walking group Luke and I were on hand with the pedicabs to run folk all over.

So a great day was had by all, and Connect2 needs your vote. Register here and then on the day theyll send you a reminder by email or text - http://www.sustransconnect2.org.uk/

Lovely Stuff

"Hi
I would like to say thank you very much for the amazing job that your man Luke did, he was very nice & very patient.the cab just looked great again thank you very much. I have inc. a couple of pics for yourselves.

Mrs. Jess Hood"

Customer 5000! And some other cool facts!

So I guess we should have told you about this earlier, but a few weeks ago now we took our 5000th customer, just from the evening work, the customers in question were Sam, Mel and Tom. The guy on the left is Daz one of our riders and the photo was take by Ad one of our other riders.

So since we started some 6 months ago, we've taken thousands of customers and weve literally come a long way, thousands of miles, which means we have saved many many short journey in cars and stopped loads of nasty carbon entering our environment. The launch of Pedicargo will see plenty more of that. In fact since we started our trial and now we are in to our full time roll out we have already transported over 2500 items, files, documents all sorts.

It's amazing stuff so a massive thank you to everyone who has ridden in a pedicab, sent some cargo or just given us a supportive shout. Thanks.

From all of the team.

Will, Ben, Daz, Luke and Ad

Happy Days

Big congratulations to Dean and his lovely wife on their recent event!

Business is booming, it's a great time to be a pedicargo rider!

I had a great meeting last week with Helen Edwards, she runs the HerefordshireGuide.co.uk, a website about stuff to do in Herefordshire, you know, where to have a meal, what to do at the weekends.

It was great to see Helen and hear how passionate she is about Hereford and enabling people to make the most of it. So if your at a loose end of things to do or you just want to nose about, have a look! HerefordshireGuide.co.uk
