4th August - Pedapod
Exciting news for Sydney... we have our own fleet of bicycle taxi's! Somewhat more advanced than a rickshaw, these are a new breed of 21st century green taxi's. Manly council look interested in putting in 8 Pedapods in their neck of the woods. Fares for a taxi ride in the CBD is around $7... not bad for the feel of the wind in your hair. The Pedapod team are pretty excited about their new venture and if you fancy a refreshing taxi ride you can meet them around Circular Quay, Martin Place or Wynyard Park.

very cool.
I'm a pedicab driver in Oklahoma City in the USA, so I'm glad to see y'all have them in Sydney now. Pedicabs are such a fun way to travel (and for drivers, a great way to make a living).

I agree James, there are many benefits to providing some form of pedal-powered passenger service in cities. We are getting great feedback from people in Sydney and Melbourne about the service, but we are finding it really hard to find, and keep, good riders.
