An ice cream truck is to the suburbs what an ice cream trike is to New York City. The logical way to transport ice cream made from locally-sourced organic grass-fed dairy and organic sugar is by bike.

The founders of Brooklyn’s Blue Marble Ice Cream (named after Earth’s nickname, the “Big Blue Marble”) try to do everything “with the environment, the planet, in mind“, but that’s not the only reason using a trike instead of a truck makes sense.

In this video, Blue Marble biker Ray Ray Mitrano shows us his trike and two trailers (one for ice cream and the other for supplies) and talks about how a trike just makes sense in a city where parking is tough.
