Today’s Solutions: July 07, 2025

Cycling desks found at Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam, and in a train station in Lyon, let you exercise while you charge you digital device. The desks are called WeBikes and were conceived of by Patricia Ceysens, a Flemish government minister. The desks look like any stool and table arrangement but with pedals right above where your feet would naturally hang. People passing by the Dutch airport or the French train station can use the pedal powered stools to connect to Wi-Fi and charge their phones. It takes about 30 minutes to charge an iPhone and that’s about the time you need for your daily workout.
