Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#7)

Six boxes loaded with books. Lately I’ve been feeling that my house is full of too much stuff…and much of the stuff are things I rarely use. So in one more way of trying to simplify my life I’ve been attempting to purge my house of unused stuff. I am by no means a pack-rat,Continue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#7)”

The Awsomeness of Utility Bikes

It’s been relatively pleasant in Buffalo lately…by that I mean not much snow, though it has been bitterly cold for the past week again. Anyhow, it was a brilliantly sunny day and I rode my Yuba Mundo to work, and then rode my teenage son home on it…cutting the walk time down by at leastContinue reading “The Awsomeness of Utility Bikes”

Evening Ride on the Mundo Yuba

I was surprised this evening at how warm it was…something like 40F (this is very warm for Buffalo in February). I had a few small shopping errands to run, all of which were well within biking range (I’m still trying to determine what “biking range” is…I suppose it depends on weather conditions in this region,Continue reading “Evening Ride on the Mundo Yuba”

Errands on the Mundo Yuba (and what I saw on the ride)

I had the day off today and had a bunch of errands to run. The temperature was hovering around 32F, and the sun was out (at least for the first portion of the day). I probably covered about 20 miles (I’m guessing, as I do not have an odometer), taking into consideration the convoluted andContinue reading “Errands on the Mundo Yuba (and what I saw on the ride)”

Yuba Ride

The above photos are actually re-posts from this past summer/fall (and yes, that is corn growing in my front yard…for the newcomer to this blog you can see more about my front yard corn here). I was inspired to re-post them after coming across the below video. It’s an interview with Benjamin, the founder ofContinue reading “Yuba Ride”

The only things that I am required to do are bring freshly baked bread and carve the bird.

>My New S.U.B (and how I built a stylish custom top deck for under twenty bucks)

>Well, I finally did it. After months of hemming and hawing (as to whether I should purchase another bike…this makes six), I finally did it. I ordered my Mundo Yuba. And I gotta say that it’s pretty exciting. It was a little intimidating putting it together. I’m a pretty handy guy, but I’ve never putContinue reading “>My New S.U.B (and how I built a stylish custom top deck for under twenty bucks)”
