Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#495) and a brief comment…

On the bike…Slightly more than $120 in groceries. I was shopping at a local grocery store yesterday.

And one of the things I like about thisContinue reading “Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#495) and a brief comment…”

Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#443)…and a couple comments

On and being pulled by the bike…$184.67 in groceries. Comment #1…I went to a big box supermarket today, haven’t been to one on a while.

Anyhow, as my merchandise was being rang outContinue reading “Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#443)…and a couple comments”

More on the Trailer

This post is related to my prevous post regarding my latest experiment in self-propelled mobility…a trailer attached to the Mundo. A few people have asked me how I attached the hitch to the bike seeing the Mundo–with its long wheel base–is not suited for an attachment to the traditional axle attachment. How I attached thisContinue reading “More on the Trailer”

Increased Capacity

If you’ve been to this blog before you know that I ride a bike as often as I can, not great distances or in races but for my everyday transportation around town…and I also like to carry stuff on my bikes, whatever stuff a person would normally carry in their car.
