🐝 Cycle Cities Buzz - Symposium 2026 Date, B2C Survey + 2 in 😊 2 out 😒

Published about 2 months agoΒ β€’Β 2 min read

​

Hi Reader,

First this week, we have a couple of sad 😒 farewells.

Radius Tours is ending their bike tours and focussing more on other products. Daniel has let me know with sadness he will be leaving us. I want to say a big thank you to Daniel and everyone at Radius Tours for being such a valuable member of our community over the years, and for giving us a very memorable Symposium 2019 in Munich. You will be missed!

Also, It's a farewell to Monica Busby who has been working for Cycle Cities for the past 18 months. Monica has been a great help to me, especially in writing some fantastic B2C Broadcast Newsletters of late. Thanks Monica for all you have done and wishing you all the best for your Cycle Travel Club project! Keep us in the loop!

On a brighter note we welcome Frederik (Marketing Manager) and Marvin (Product Manager) from Frankfurt Bike Tour, to Mighty Networks. It will be great to have your expertise in our knowledge community. Welcome!

We lose 2, we gain 2. The universe is balanced.

Now, onto this week's buzz....

But the truth is, what’s second nature to you can feel like magic to someone else. It’s easy to underestimate the value of our own experience. We forget that the systems and techniques we use every...
