Come and try out our new cargo bike courtesy of the SmartGo bike share scheme!

Screenshot of LinkedIn post from Ciarán Ferrie with text as follows:

"Well, that was fun!

I got to try out the new SmartGo cargo bike share scheme today at Fumbally Exchange. The cargo bike is surprisingly easy to ride - it balances pretty much like a standard bike and once you get used to turning at the corners it's easy to handle.

The bike is an electric-assist two-wheeler by BERGAMONT Fahrrad Vertrieb GmbH which can take passengers or goods in the large cargo box. It has automatic gears and I managed to hit 30km/h on Cork Street but the electric-assist cuts out at 25km/h.

If you'd like to try it you can download the app at https://smartgo.ie/ and make a booking. This one is hosted at Fumbally Exchange's Blackpitts HQ in Dublin 8 and there are others at The Bike Hub in Dún Laoghaire and at Beacon South Quarter.

It's a great initiative to provide people with an alternative to the private car when you have stuff to move about and I hope we start to see more of them around the city!"

Accompanying photos include a selfie of Ciarán on the bike at the entrance to Fumbally Exchange and a photo of the bike itself in its parking spot

It was lovely to be greeted by this beautiful sunflower this morning as we arrived at Fumbally Exchange - it struggled to bloom in challenging conditions but now that it has it is shining brightly! (Not saying this is a metaphor for the Fumbally Exchange or anything like that 😉 )

We've dug up some footage from the early days of Fumbally Exchange. A lot of fresh faces in this video but with all the changes over the last 15 years it's great to see that so many of that young cohort are still part of the community now, albeit a little greyer! www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPxS...

Metaphorical gardening - another snapshot from our 2015 scrapbook, this time from @feenishproductions.bsky.social. Buddleia's bloom from the post unlikely places. (see alt text for transcription)

"Buddleia, 3rd Floor, Fumbally Exchange Building

Ideas that no one could ever have imagined are springing out of this place! You've found the place, cleared the ground, prepared the soil, and now our dreams have a place to take root and grow. And cross pollinate! Thank you so much, your comrade in gardening metaphors, James."

five Fumbally haikus... 10 years ago, to celebrate Fumbally Exchange's 5th birthday, we produced a scrap book asking current and past members to contribute some memories of the first five years. This whimsical, but heartwarming response came from architect, Stephen Musiol.

I recommend @lizcarolan.com 's newsletter www.thebriefing.ie to people who sign up to thegist.ie and I see today that it's prompted 14 signups. You can recommend any website, not just ones on the Ghost platform- like the blogrolls of old. If you're on Ghost, take a few minutes to fill in yours.
