Often something that costs twice as much doesn’t perform twice as long, it lasts ten times longer. When you multiply this over a lifetime, when it becomes the default, rather than the exception, you get more for your money. The best retailer, the best p...

Taking a step back from ORMs | Experimental Thoughts

http://bakfietscargo.blogspot.com/2007/06/reuters-cargobike-video.html
Living with the Dutch kid and cargo hauling workhorse in Portland, OR. Tuesday, June 05, 2007. Hadn't run across this video before, but just stumbled upon it on YouTube - a nice Reuters piece on Dutch cargobikes including an interview with Henry Cutler. Posted by Richard at 9:42 AM.

Clever Cycles to open June 1.
