The Bicycling Bookseller

With a little help from his trusty bike, bookseller Mattia Garavaglia safely delivered the joy of reading to hundreds of customers in lockdown. His only issue was efficiency — Mattia travelled using a hand drawn map, limiting the number of deliveries he could make, until a friend suggested he try the new cycling feature on Google Maps. This story is part of a series we work on, about people who are achieving remarkable things using Google technology.
